The sunflower paintings have been growing.🌻 Have been working outside on these. When I didn't have a big enough easel, I used a folding table on its side(last pic) Let's see where this grows from here! #518artist #sunflowers #artyladymsd #acrylicpainting

It's the beginning of the 5th year of this part of my daily studio practice. Make 1 small work each day. They are part of my exploration and learning. Some of them may lead to, or be part of more complete work, but that is not their sole purpose. Show up for yourself every day in any way you can.

As we wake up this morning, one guy is golfing in Mar A Lago, another guy is on vacation skiing in VT, and then the only guy who is working to defend Ukraine, America, Democracy, and freedom is today meeting with European leaders before going back to a war zone. Zelenskyy is a hero.

Breaking news! The court just issued us a TRO in our lawsuit against Elon Musk's DOGE, so that they stop taking the private data of American citizens from the Department of Ed and OPM. More to come.
