Sit still in the forest and listen to the creatures, wild folk, and monsters shambling in the shadows. Breathe quietly and know you are among friends.

A slightly over-worked, slightly over-saturated oil painting from earlier this year ✨

Proof I’m alive and making art 🥲 these are all acrylic underpaintings waiting for oil paint (and actual final colors lol) and I am SWIMMING in them. Pro tip: instead of trying to finish a work of art and potentially failing, just start a new one! Works every time!

Next in my ongoing zodiac series, belated as usual, Cancer the crab! I personally struggle to relate to this sign the most and am therefore unsurprised that I struggled the most (so far) with this painting! Happy Saturday!

Hand holding up a circular oil painting of a person in a white dress, sitting in a bed of flowers and swampy plants, on top of a gigantic blue and green crab. The persons head is hidden behind a large white moon and their arms are raised outstretched to either side of the glowing orb. The crabs pincers are likewise raised and meet with the human arms against a starry night sky. Three lunar moths also rest on the crab- one in front of the person, one to the side of the person, and one atop the right crab pincer. Behind the crab and human figures is a blue lake bordered with greenery. The crabs legs and pincers are intertwined with a light green ribbon that leads off the human’s shoulders and wounds its way through the painting. In the center of the painting is engraved the astrological symbol of Cancer, painted solid blue.

A close up shot of details in the painting: two lunar moths on the crab, the blue lake in the background, the green ribbon winding around a crab pincer, and the right arm of the human figure.

A close up shot of details in the painting: the left crab pincer, the green ribbon wrapping around it, a lunar moth sitting in front of the person and amongst the flowers and greenery on the crabs back, the left arm of the person, and half of the large moon.

A close up shot of details in the painting: the center of the painting where the astrological symbol for Cancer is engraved in the panel of the painting and painted solid blue. The human figure in a white dress sits center with the symbol- flowers and greenery below on the crab shell, and the moon up above seemingly resting in their shoulders.

When you have time, the bookstores miss you. When you have time, the misty moors miss you. When you have time, the haunted seashores miss you. When you have time, the soft raindrops falling on moss in the forest miss you. They will wait, in quiet darkness, until you're ready.

We had a buck in our yard today! 🦌 He should’ve been more suspicious of me than he was given that I was wearing a coat similar in color to a mountain lion’s, js

A fuzzy-antlered buck looking at the viewer, surrounded by leafy tree branches, ferns, and other greenery.

Bluesky you deserve some fireflies in a cornfield. Not pictured-the young hawk chased away by robins, the enormous kale after the rain, the smell of the tomato plant leaves.

Happy last day of #Gemini season 🌞 I wrapped up this painting just in time! #originalart

A large circular oil painting of two women standing back to back, arms interlinked at their sides. In the background is a landscape with four twisting tornados that kick up debris in the distance. A lavender field builds up closer and closer until the purple flowers crop up just behind the women’s long gray dresses. Both women have long brown hair that end in braids tied off with golden ribbons. The same color of ribbon wraps around their fingers and flows along the stems and leaves of a yellow rose, which one of them holds in her hand.

Making a separate post for this one because 1) I still don’t have BlueSky figured out and 2) this painting will be part of @gallerynucleus.bsky.social ’s Power in Numbers show at the end of this month (June 28!)! #PIN2025 Please enjoy these progress pics and check out the show if you’re in the area!

Here are some paintings I made in May! 😊 First up is this painting of some mothereffing snakes on a mothereffing house #acrylicpainting

A hand holds a small painting of a red house with a green mossy roof against a greenish blue background of blurry tree forms. Two dark colored snakes are twisting around each other and around the house, looping in and out of windows, through the front door, with a tail winding around the chimney.

I plan to post at least one of my photos a day here on Bluesky. I design each of my photos using recent research into the benefits to mental health of looking at plants & patterns in nature. Making my collections relaxes my noisy autistic+ADHD brain & they'll relax yours by looking at them here:

Happy spring equinox! I never actually posted my finished Aries painting on here and I’m sorry. Here ‘tis! Oil on birch panel 🐏♈️ #aries #newyear

A hand holding up a circular wooden panel on which is painted a picture of a woman in a red jumpsuit riding an enormous ram sheep with red eyes and a red ribbon around its neck, leaping over burning branches, smoke curling around its legs. The red planet Mars hangs in the painting’s cloudy blue sky background.

Here’s the first painting of 2025! Blue Jay and Blossoms. Oil on paper 🌸 P.S. I’m trying to avoid Meta as much as possible and it’s just as well since I’ve been neglecting BlueSky :’)

An oil painting of a blue jay in flight in front of a woman’s head, obscuring all features except for her lips. The bird is holding a pink flower in its beak and holding a longer stem of pink flowers in its talons.

Detail shot of an oil painting, showing the head and most of the body of a blue jay in flight holding a short stem of pink flowers in its beak.

Detail shot of an oil painting showing a stem of pink flowers, a blue jay wing, and part of a face.

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

In Flemish folktales witches are said to have stolen horses to ride them through the woods at night. When they brought them back in the morning, the horses were often adorned with flowers and had their manes and tails braided. 🎨Sieskja
