Happy #caturday from the crew. It's feeding time.

Upcycled (Large) bottle from thrift store. Original image in the green/yellow paint. Redid it with acrylics and foam clay.

I've had the last five days off in a row and took advantage by arting my butt off. It grieves me now to have to go back to the dreary day job. Really thinking about retiring next year at 62. I'm not rich but would probably make a little more on retirement than I do at this part time job's slave wages.

Bubba Chibbs passed out after a marathon of The Expanse.

Play that funky music...

Before and after. My latest painted lamp.

I did a thing. My cramped little workspace was getting cluttered. I bought this cart on wheels to hold my paint supplies. #organization #art

What have I gotten myself into now? 😂

I'm not really one for 100% student loan forgiveness. We all take out loans for things, it's a choice, whether we buy a house, a car or choose to further our education. However, I think to make it fair, there should be a very low interest rate on those loans, so that its easier to pay them back. Also, education shouldn't be so expensive to put one in debt for life.

The Supreme Court needs term limits. It should not be a lifetime post.

@j0n I lived in Prescott Valley which was relatively close to Yarnell. It was a huge thing for the whole community there. Such a sad day. We have great respect for firefighters.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, if someone wishes to deny me service based on religious grounds, I will be happy to spend my money elsewhere.

Proud of my new state. Michigan bans conversion therapy for minors.

I also enjoy repainting mannequin heads. I just don't have space to buy more. I have six mannequin busts and one full size mannequin.

Really bad air quality here in Saginaw today from the Quebec fires. Worst I've seen it (and smelled it). Not complaining though because it's far worse for the people and animals who are dealing directly with these fires. My heart goes out to them.

Is this a new trend with Billionaires?

My first upcycled thrift store lamp. I painted this one for myself.

That moment when you retire from doing doll makeovers and a client emails you saying they dropped their doll's head and messed up the makeover and can you fix it? I'm trying to paint lamps, gosh darnit!

I do miss the AZ sunsets.
