A piece I'm currently working on, well underway but far from finished. No title yet. The background is a mix of paper, cardboard, and plastic from food packaging. The jawbone has a light relief carving of a cow and the full moon, and I'm making some ink from oak galls to bring it out better.

Mixed media piece with plastic, paper, and cardboard collaged onto plywood with acrylic paint and a carved cow jawbone.

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn't a selfie

Photo of a painting at the Malta airport of a guy in the water, from below the surface. He is wearing a red speedo with 'MALTA' written on it in white letters across his butt. His head is above water and cannot be seen due to the surface reflections.

Good morning! I saw some bees and cactus flowers having a good ol' time yesterday.

I made wood and bone char for my compost. It's a thing I like to do in rhythm with the sun, so my sacred fires have become charcoal-making fires.

"Yamuna River (with Taj Mahal Erased)", mixed media on board. Inspired by a photo of the Taj Mahal with the Yamuna River glowing behind it. I wanted to focus on the glowing beauty of the river. Available for purchase.

Very textural painting with pale green as the dominant color. There is red underpainting that shows through in some places. The surface is highly gouged with vertical scratches, and some parts have thin paper covering the gouged surface. There is a river in what would be the background, painted in shiny silver and bordered with red. In what would be the foreground, there is an image of the Taj Mahal that has been mostly painted over in the dominant color, making the whole thing look abstract and hard to recognize as a landscape. There is a hint of a door, and a small blue rectangular pool that have not been painted out.

Bumping for attention. People should be as willing to give you good things as they are to give to these chickadees.

Photo of my cousin holding out a handful of birdseed, with a chickadee perched on their fingers looking skeptically at the seeds. Scene is a snowy woodland, with other people in the background looking away from the camera, some holding birdseed as well or taking pictures.

"The Fossil Evidence of Climate Change", about 4' x 4', mixed media on canvas. Inspired by a chapter in Willy Ley's book, "Dragons in Amber" called 'The Forest of the Dinosaurs: Sequoia', in which he compared modern & ancient plant communities, showing location drift over time.

Semi-abstract painting with a lot of turquoise and red. There's a ghostly human figure in the center that looks like it's submerged to the chest in water, and sketchy leaves and fossils drawn on small canvas panels glued to the surface. In the upper left, there is text loosely written: "Sequoia semperverens, common name Redwood, is like unto Sequoia langsdorfii as Salix ..." (It goes on in this style for a while, narrating the information found in a table in the book chapter comparing a Miocene forest to a current one in a style meant to be reminiscent of the book of Deuteronomy.)

"Unreliable Narrative", acrylic on canvas. This is about the speciation of apple maggot flies (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_m...), and about the biblical creation story. In both cases, the original fruit was not an apple, but flies adapted, and so do the stories we tell.

Tall painting of a hand holding an apple in front of a mostly green-blue background. The apple has a maggot fly resting on it, and is partly cut away to reveal maggot tracks inside. A thin wash of red, same color as the apple, runs in drips down the forearm.

"Polonium", mixed media, 26" x 42" framed. Available for purchase. Inspire by thinking about Mme. Curie's life, her discovery of Polonium, and the murder of Litvinenko via Polonium in -- 2012, was it?

Semi-abstract figurative mixed media painting. There is a seated nude male figure in the center left, with a golden shiny abstract blob instead of a head, and the ghost of a hand behind his left shoulder suggesting a wing. He is seated on an abstract flowing form that is coming out of an arched doorway with a full moon framed by it. Beside the doorway, the formula for radioactive decomposition from Bismuth to Polonium is written in 4 shiny squares of aluminum foil with reflective purple paint. There are two other arched windowlike forms to the right, composed so the eye rises, following them. The wall is orange, and has incomplete white stripes. To the right is a ghostly human for from the waist up, with a pair of lungs, one green and one foil. The figure has a Greek-style helmet on, and there is orange paint behind it suggesting a plume.

All right! Here's a photo for boosting purposes. A kick ass mural in my city.

Photo of downtown Tucson. There are some tall buildings with lots of windows in the background. One building on the right has a tall mural of a saguaro in bloom, with a vivid blue sky behind it that is a little brighter than the actual sky. There's also an adobe brick wall on the right, and a one way sign in the foreground.

Boosting with a nice picture of Lake Tahoe.

Photo of Lake Tahoe at dawn. The water is still, there are docks and trees, and snowy mountains in the far distance.

Picture for engagement! People like boats, right? This is in Malta.

A ship with tall masts, but no sails. Takes tourists to nice swimming spots around Malta.

I have these elbow guards. I got them to wear in the hopes I can avoid some nerve damage and future pressure palsies, but I don't wear them much, because they look Way Too Sporty. Is there a way to, IDK, reupholster them? Make them more subdued? Does anyone have suggestions?

A pair of elbow guards (for mtn biking or something, idk) that are black, white, and yellow.

Canyonlands I and II. A geographic allegory about isolation. Canyonlands National Park has three sections separated by steep, dramatic canyons and water. Trying to visit all of them in one trip is very challenging by land (but trivially easy if you travel by water).

Painting of an abstracted landscape with a mix of top-down and ground level perspective. There is a (top-down perspective) river bisecting the scene. The path & shape of the river is based on the Green River upstream of its confluence with the Grand River in the heart of Canyonlands National Park. In the middle, there is a figure sitting by the river, covering her face with her arm in way that suggests grief. Colors are mostly pinkish and bluish with bright white highlights that are glossier than the background.

‘San Juan de las Boquillas y Nogales’ The name of a parcel of land along the San Pedro River that was granted to a wealthy family by the Mexican government in the 1830s. It became part of the U.S. with the Gadsden Purchase in 1853. The name means ‘St. John of the little mouths and walnuts’.

The central figure is my own eclectic imagining of John the Baptist — an androgynous man showing strength through vulnerability and a deep connection to his environment. The piece is more than a painting — it includes pieces of paper maps, foil, scraps of print proofs, and plastic from a shopping bag I fished out of the Yamuna River in northern India (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamuna), which is a river of deep non-Christian spiritual significance. These are sewn and glued onto the main canvas panel, which is hung like a tapestry rather than stretched. Their are repeated echoes throughout — a Black Phoebe is mirrored by its own pink plastic silhouette in the trees, the large version of John the Baptist is echoed by a more crude drawing of him on a foil panel with his head detached, and the foil reappears as a halo and water-surface like reflections within the landscape.

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

Photo of sunset in the BC channel islands, from a kayak. The front of the kayak and paddle tip are visible. The water is calm, with a few ripples.

I use this bone to metaphorically store labor, love, and attention. I update it during Sabbaths, and also other times that feel right. My last update was drawing a sloth near the top. We visited Kartchner Caverns on the weekend nearest Imbolc, and learned about a sloth skeleton found there
