ALT: ink line drawing of a tree with no leaves, sun and moon shining behind it and a blue stream curling around its base. Two little flowers in the foreground.

way past my bedtime
ALT: abstract crayon and acrylic painting. There’s a blue ground that looks watery, then some kind of blue arc in what would be the ‘sky’, with sunset orange above that. Set in the ‘water’ is a purple structure of some kind, angular and open, more like a scaffold than a building. In front of that are black lines and shapes, that look a little more organic but still a scaffold of sorts. and some webs and spirals of thinner black lines traced around and through. One spot of yellow-orange peeks through from behind the purple. it really was late, and I really had no big ideas about images, just putting feelings into lines and colors.

ALT: ink and acrylic drawing that resembles a brick wall with blue windows, black streaks that could be structure or shadow, and a lacing of white lines that could be strings like clothesline tied to several points and stretching across it all.

I thought I’d lay the ground for some linework, but only got this far. No matter; I kind of like it just as it is.
ALT: abstract rounded shapes in bright colors, water-soluble crayon and colored pencil. Yellows seem to be the background for rounded bone-like(?) shapes in red, purple and blue.

stirrings
ALT: calligraphic watercolor in pink, purple, blue and green. The green makes leafy stalks, with pink and purple flowery blobs, and breezy blue spirals between.

in praise of the dawn chorus
ALT text: acrylic painting mostly in blues, with two black birds facing each other. the backdrop is like grass and reeds and seedpods, kind of swirling and interweaving like birdsongs.

ready to fight
I’ve started using alt-text on Bluesky when I post, and I might as well include those descriptions here:
acrylic painting in mostly blues and purples with black and white lines depicting a personage with wavy hair updo, scowling and standing by a tree. They might be holding a scalp, or that might be another spectral personage seen from behind, with the same wavy hair hanging down instead of standing up. or maybe it’s the spirit of the tree.

the truth.
this is probably my last collage for this time around, I have the supplies mostly sorted and ready to store for next year. Thanks to Stephanie Luck Coïc for sending me an inspirational packet of materials, and to all the friends and relations that participate in my annual collage get-together. It never fails to surprise and motivate me.
