I’ve just noticed that’s Dad’s liver-versary is tomorrow! 32 years. The amazing doctor who did his transplant back then, Bob Jones at the Austin Hospital, has just retired. I hope your son has a similarly good second innings!

That’s so awesome, Jay. My dad got his 2nd liver in 1994 here in Melbourne Aus and he is still going! He’s 85 now, with a bunch of other issues but his liver is the one thing that does work well. So grateful.

I think there are so many other feeds for photos. I would love if this one was just true visual art, sans photography.

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 17/12/2025

That’s a shame, Jay. Sorry I’ve been sparse with my offerings this year. Can I just say though that I feel kinda sad seeing all the photos now.. they drown out the art. Photos can be art but I fear that most of them in the feed are not. They’re just pics of beautiful things, like nature. 😕

For #ArtAdventCalendar day 16, here’s a face I sketched last weekend. I really love drawing faces, they’re so interesting. Not overly happy with this one but meh, it was fun. Drawn with #Polychromos #pencil 191 Pompeian Red in a mixed media sketchbook. #drawing #face #art #sketch

A monochromatic, rusty red pencil drawing of a girl’s face, scrunched up, caught in a big laugh. She has a mass of wild curls framing her face, her eyes squeezed shut in mirth, and her teeth all visible behind her wide grin.

For #ArtAdventCalendar today, here’s a gouache painting I did in Feb ‘22, one of my faves. #painting #art #gouache

A gouache painting in a sketchbook. The landscape orientated painting is an abstract progression of loose, textured, vertical coloured stripes blended into each other, moving from left through deep red, scarlet, orange, golden yellow, light brown, a thin band of dark brown, dark to lighter green, lemon yellow, golden yellow again then finishing with another thin band of orange on the right edge.

Happy #ArtAdventCalendar everyone! Here is an artichoke from August. Been playing with oils a bit this year and I have a lot to learn 😅 #painting #oils #artichoke

Rude! I would take that as a dare to take even longer to decide on the food ;)

Damn you Kai, I just got back into bed with a coffee and now I must get up and Vegemite toast too! 🤤

My heart breaks for you Beth, having to make that heart-breaking decision. I understand though, we all do I’m sure. And I am glad you will be taking time to tend to your health, to grieve, and to reground. Sending so much love to you and all the animals, always, from Australia ❤️

How technical are you, Jay? The machine should still be good for Linux, try Mint or Ubuntu, both are well supported and similar-ish to Windows. If that’s not an option, it’s possible it’s only 1 or 2 parts of yr machine specs that’s lacking, so you could take it to a shop to upgrade those bits.

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 26/06/2025

Awesome, thank you! And I saw it closes a month later too which is great as I haven’t got there yet. Don’t worry about replies, I am very very sporadic with social media myself :)

Yikes Saskya! Do whatever you need to do to shake that off.

Ciao! 💕 Nothing for a while, but we were talking about the apples I have pinned here, which started with the Continuous Contour line technique with my left hand, which I learned from you 🤗

Richard Scarry was my favourite artist as a child. And probably still is. He enthralled me for hours and hours with his wonderful books.

My wonderful art mentor & friend @angelaales.bsky.social suggested this to me, and I loved the result too! Thank you. Perhaps give this a try yourself!

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

Great ideas! Good luck with it. And be kind to yourself, creativity will return :)

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

Sorry to hear! Yeah that sucks. Can you try just playing with a new medium, perhaps?

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

Yeah me too, on both accounts!

Love Kent St! We have this beauty on our fridge: (Note also the awesome cat stickers from @kayjaypayyy.bsky.social 🧢❤️)

Photo from 2023 of a sticker that is still on our fridge that reads “Fuck this, I’m going to Kent St!”

Stuck there with some very yellowed old White Pages magnets, which also pin some wonderful @kayjaypayyy cat stickers and a council notice about a street party.

Being a rainy Melbourne Sunday morning, I am still in bed & too lazy to go take a fresh pic.

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

What a wonderful idea! I've seen a few of these of yours & wondered if you made them for others or yourself. Hope you're doing ok there right now 💙

miinx @miinx.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

Well hello there Spike! 😍 This story completely warms my heart. Congratulations to you all! 🥹 Of course, however, the most important question must be asked: Does he like sticks?
