‘Odyssey’ Oil and acrylic on canvas (90 x 120cm)

A lone - seemingly abandoned - building in a rolling hill landscape. A grass path leads through one open archway of the building and into the distance towards a forest under a stormy sky.

Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.

idk i think in a time when it feels like nothing matters & all is futile it might actually be time to double down and write your stories & make your paintings & sing your songs & do your art. create the things that make us human and share them.

Following on from the tour poster shared yesterday, my cover illustration for Katie Melua's 'In Winter' album itself, from 2016. The original artwork is a papercut, approximately 305 mm square. 1/3 #ArtAdventCalendar

Cut paper illustration in white on a blue ground. In the centre of the design is a treehouse in which sits a young woman playing a red guitar. Above her, a panel with the words, 'In Winter' and 'Katie Melua'; below her, an unfurled scroll with the words 'Featuring Gori Women's Choir.' Out of this central element, stylised, scrolling branches curve outward to either side, surrounding, on the left, a trio of bells, a pair of skates, and a cluster of presents; and on the right, a row of candles, an hourglass, and a cushion bearing a high-heeled shoe next to an elaborate hat on a hatstand. The overall effect is of snowflake-like delicacy.

Very pleased to have 4 pieces in the Gates Mills Ohio art show. #acrylicpainting #portraiture #art #painting

Me standing next to 3 paintings. 2 small and square, one medium sized. The larger shows a young woman’s face with beams of shadow falling across it. One smaller is a self portrait looking nervous and one shows two young girls wearing back packs and standing in strong back light.

Hello #PortfolioDay! I'm Eleonor and I'm a freelance illustrator from Portugal - I make art for book covers and interiors, TTRPGs and TCGs, among other things! 🎇 eleonorpiteira.squarespace.com

Storm from X-Men painted by Eleonor Piteira for the 2024 Upper Deck Fleer Ultra Matriarchs of Marvel set. A black woman with white eyes and white gray hair flying in the wind like clouds, manipulates lightning with her hands.

Cover illustration of 'The Mercy Makers' by Tessa Gratton, painted by Eleonor Piteira. A cocky dark-haired woman in a red dress with a mask made of magic is smirking at the viewer as she manipulates golden geometric threads with her hands. The hand with the red silk glove is removing a thread, the other is holding a sort of stylus and drawing a new thread. Below, there is the silhouette of a city, and one moon.

Cover illustration by Eleonor Piteira of the book 'To Clutch A Razor' by Veronica Roth. Two identical men stand in the same pose, one of them has a gold halo around his head and is holding a gold book with pages flying away from it. One of the pages has a drawing of a sword. On the background tile rooftops and a church are painted red.

Little acrylic 6x6 from the weekend. Feels good to be painting a little bit more lately. #acrylic #painting #stilllife #art

Square painting of radishes and their greens lying on a striped tea towel. The painting is rendered in semi-abstract blocky strokes with bright areas of gold/green and warm and cool reds for the radishes. The background is a dark blue-brown

I liked this one from figure drawing last night. #charcoal #drawing #lifedrawing

Charcoal drawing of a man wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt. He is seated sideways in a chair with his right leg extended and his arm resting on the chair back. The figure is lit from behind with a strong edge of light across his face.

Can’t decide if I like this or not. I was interested in the implied architecture of the lighting. #acrylic #painting #portrait #art

Portrait of young woman’s face. The top crops just above her eyebrows. Lines of bright sunshine fall horizontally across her face and chest. Her eyes are looking to the left. The pink of her face and lips is accentuated.

Department of Education FAFSA changes are open for public comment. The changes include requiring trans students to misgender themselves and removes the nonbinary option on forms. Note: comment period is 60 days, and comments are publicly visible. Form here: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of Education published the information collection for the 2026-27 Free Application for Federal Student Aid ( FAFSA®) form in the Federal Register, the first public step in the FAFSA development process. The Department is on track to launch the 2026-27 FAFSA by Oct. 1, 2025 as mandated by the FAFSA Deadline Act.

The Department also announced that current and future FAFSA forms will rightfully reflect the biological reality that there are only two sexes: male and female. Department officials will remove “nonbinary” as a gender identification option from the current year’s FAFSA form.

“The Trump Administration will correct the failures of the last Administration and ensure students and families can easily access the FAFSA form in a timely manner,” said Acting Under Secretary James Bergeron. “Resolving ongoing problems with the 2024-25 form, reflecting biological reality by referencing sex identifiers, and beginning the process for the 2026-27 form on-time will allow the Department to earn back the trust of the American people. Families and students depend on the FAFSA form to plan their futures, and any release delays or unnecessary politicization of the form is wholly unacceptable.”

Beginning stage of a self portrait trying to capture some of the feelings of the moment.

A view from my walk today. Lots of wind and snow -- and I saw about 50 redpolls, so that's cool 🌿

View across a frozen and snow-covered river to a railway bridge. The ground and snow are white. There's a patch of stems sticking out of the snow in the foreground, an island in the mid ground. Snowflakes are falling.

So it's the last day of the Advent. Here's my Day 24 #artadventcalendar creation. Another oil and cold wax painting on paper. It's been a joy sharing this art exchange with all you folks. Wishing you a Merry Christmas (or whatever else you celebrate) and a Happy New Year!

A oil and cold wax painting on a paper whose woven texture shows through. The painting could be interpreted as a landscape, with navy blue and dark forest green plants in the foreground and white sky with pale grey blue mixed in. There are various scratchy marks throughout the painting.

Back to #ArtAdventCalendar after missing a few days due to Covid. This one is just summer in a glass.

Semi-abstract painting of a glass of ice water with a lime wedge floating in it. The glass is surrounded by three lemons, two of which are cut off by the paintings edges. The background is a tan towel with thin maroon stripes. The glass casts a strong purplish shadow to the lower left.

Today’s #artadventcalendar is about holding two feelings in your head simultaneously: the joy of seeing someone you love take flight, while being sad that they are flying away. It’s about the truth of both feelings. It is about parenting and specifically about parenting trans children. Love is love.

#artAdventCalendar day 14, a lucky phone capture I love a lot of a black eyed junco in my herb garden this winter.

A black eyed junco, a small bird with black brown and gray coloring, flies to the left of the frame. Its wings have been caught spread and blurred mid flight. To the right is a leafless pontinella bush branch covered in snow. A high snow drift backs the entire photo, and large blurred flakes fall from the sky.
