As well as painting, I've been knitting clothes for my new grandchild and these very Australian toys #knittedtoys

This one allowed me to play with texture and learn a little more about the paints. It includes white watercolour pencil and white gouache. The values aren't always entirely right, and it gets muddy at times, but it does have a sense of movement. #Watercolour

One time, I noticed a magpie watching me play with my grand dog in the park. The dog jumped up on me excitedly, and the magpie, misinterpreting events, let out its predator warning cry that I know so well from experience with magpies. Birds are great communicators. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmys...

This cow painting came together fairly quickly. I was drawn to painting the nose and tongue. I think she has character!

I enjoyed painting this little red-capped robin. I was drawn to painting the background, and the colours go well with the approaching festive season. It was finished quickly because it's quite a small painting and I didn't fuss.

Three ago, I visited my dad in another state. His housemate was literally dying, but dad just stared at the TV muttering about unpaid rent. I called the ambulance for his emaciated housemate, and within a week had arranged dementia care for Dad. I recognise Trump's vacant stare.

History shows that extreme wealth inequality + government corruption + a lost or radicalised middle class + loss of faith in institutions -> revolution/chaos/ terror. www.youtube.com/watch?v=75W1...

We took a drive to Jervis Bay this afternoon. Such pristine beaches! We stood in the water, a large school of tailor swimming in an undulating line between us. By our reckoning, it was 5 minutes before it had completely passed.

My observation is that a lot of people who experience paranormal events in childhood and through their teen years generally have a much higher boggle threshold in adulthood.

Many years ago, I read Suzy Miller's book, 'Awesomism!: A New Way to Understand the Diagnosis of Autism," and I was fascinated to discover the link between autism and psychic abilities. This is a great interview along similar lines if you have the time to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qlp...

During the Covid lockdowns, I started painting with water paints. I've kept it going in the hope that one day I will be really good.

Today I worked with a client who had a list of 4 things she was hoping I'd hit on in her reading. One was the mention of some of her beloved's ashes in her bag. Another was the photo of her beloved in her locket.
