One almost gets the impression that Jonathan’s a wee bit exhausted about having to report all the ineptitude, reversals, double-speak, end-arounds, and complete fabrications surrounding this presidency. He’s right though. IG: JonathanPieNews

Hey y’all 👋 repost magic appreciated. The Solecki lab is recruiting multiple postdocs at St. Jude for a chromatin imaging project at the edge of live-cell imaging, neuronal cell biology, chromatin regulation, and quantitative image analysis. Ever dreamed of touring chromatin like this? We CAN 🔥

I can’t wait to hear who will receive the FIFA prize for medicine! Maybe RFK jr?

Second page of my new (very expensive gift) sketchbook. I’m not sure about the introduction of the red, what do you think? #sketchbook #studiolife #insects #watercolor #experiments

My 6th gouache work. This time a small (4”x6”) spring landscape inspired by a hodgepodge of photos. It’s just ok. I am unaccustomed to painting small. And I am seeking more abstraction and failing at it. At some point I will move to gouache portraiture.

Reading this informative post suggests the very precarious position of BSKY. Any unscrupulous oligarch could easily (I think but hope not) buy and bury it or litigate it out of existence using 0.01% of their present wealth.

My 5th gouache painting. This time a Great Blue Heron as seen on the Allegheny River outside of Franklin, PA, months ago. I have to force myself to paint abstractly and loosely because my dense brain seems to want realism.

Continuing my goal to learn how to paint with gouache as part of an effort to move from watercolors to a combination of both mediums. This is my 4th attempt: A portrait of Marina Callas from a photo. I am not happy about it. Too many stupid mistakes. On a more + note, I am a bigger fan of Callas!

She is one of my favorite sci fi authors and wrote one of my favorite sci fi novels: “The Lathe of Heaven.” In my book she is up there with Asimov, Clarke, Wells, and so on. Nice gouache portrait, too, from Victoria.

It’s a big deal that this comes from Bloomberg.

My artistic contribution to the fall weather using gouache and colored pencils. This is my 3rd composition using gouache and it’s so much more “forgiving” compared to watercolor painting. I make lots of mistakes and need lots of forgiveness!

We are west of Pittsburgh and pretty close to Ohio. This one most likely escaped the horrors of the Buckeye state.

An interesting picture of downtown Pittsburgh under menacing-looking clouds last evening.

I don’t post a lot, but occasionally I get a picture (double rainbow) like this that needs to be seen by a few others. It was taken by my son, Andrew, on Neville Island on the Ohio River earlier this evening right after a brief rain.

It must be spring in Pittsburgh because it’s cold and raining!

The Allegheny River this evening just a few miles downstream from Franklin, Pennsylvania. I need to find out if the Walleye are running.

And 2 Bald Eagles arrived to enhance the view of the Allegheny River.

Allegheny River this morning in Forest County, PA. (Where the 5 Forks was for local folks)

Chicken Cacciatore… I mentioned to my wife that I have not had CC for many years, and she took pity on me and made it today! I normally refrain from posting mundane stuff, especially food and cat pics, but today I lack discipline. Odds are I will lose half of my many (5) followers.

I just read an article in The NY Times about problems caused by pickleball noise. It just shows how tough life can be living in the burbs. Much of the noise is from that damn over-60 crowd! Decades ago people wondered what hippies would be like when they became older. The question has been answered!
