These paintings are my artistic interpretations of things and places I've seen and visited. As an artist, I'm using paint and color to recreate my observations in a new way that's unique to me! Reminder, my 20% off originals sale ends Sep 30: thornwolf.com/shop #BSNM #watercolor

Text: What I saw, What I painted, showing my photo versus a watercolor painting of Harvard Glacier in Alaska.

Text reads "What I saw, what I painted" and shows a photo of an alpine lake called Mosquito Lake in California compared with my watercolor painting of the scene. This piece has sold via my Originals sale that is going on until Wednesday, September 30th

Text reads "What I saw, what I painted" and shows a photo of my plein air setup looking over the sound at Whidbey Island, Washington State showing driftwood on the beach, three fishermen in a boat, and distant pine tree covered hills with my watercolor painting supplies in the foreground. This image is compared to my watercolor painting of the same which zooms in on the fishermen just a little bit. This piece has sold via my Originals sale that is going on until Wednesday, September 30th

Text reads "What I saw, what I painted" and shows a photo of my husband from behind craning his neck upward to look at a giant sequoia in Calaveras Big Trees State Park in California compared to my watercolor painting of the same tree (minus husband cameo)

Naw, I thought so too when we first adopted her but she’s a heavily GSD mix with some coonhound and collie. She’s leggier than a regular GSD and has bigger boba eyes. Her name is Banshee!

Sorry for constantly bringing up this old chestnut but aside from regular old repetitive strain, GUESS WHAT HAND PAIN IS ALSO A SYMPTOM OF. The pain keeps migrating to other areas of my hand so, maybe some of Column A and some of Column B, because why the heck not. I need a McBreak.

Fun Fact: September 11th is Frasier Crane Day, it’s canonical within the show. Unfun Fact: The show’s creator, David Angell, and his wife Lynn were on the first plane to hit the towers. The end credits of this episode always feels weird to watch.

For the younger set (or folks who didn’t have their grandpa immerse them in pop culture from the 40s like mine did) Peter Lorre is a real person, an actor (mostly horror and noir) which is why he’s often seen as horror caricatures in other media. Even if you don’t know who he is, you actually do.

Clueless and the Gwyneth Paltrow versions of Emma are my favorites (despite who/what GooP is now) and my love for those movies are what got me into Jane Austen in the first place. The new one with Anya Taylor Joy is also good but Knightley isn't as cute as Jeremy Northam or Paul Rudd 😍

If you don't read the article, at least take away this important bit. He's getting his 15 minutes of fame but he's not a one-off. He's literally at Every. Single. Council meeting. After constantly getting ignored, this is basically a Portland Frog moment where you gotta get weird to draw attention.

An excerpt from the 404 Media article linked where Tony/Vader says "I think it's important for people to know this wasn't just some antic from somebody who just decided to show up one day and make some noise. This was a thought out plan that was exacted only after cumulative frustration from hundreds of people being ignored and months and months and months of trying things quote unquote the right way and it not working."

Oh my god, third episode in and they’re actually in Idyllwild for another rental (and admitting it), but THEN they’re like “oh yeah let’s meet a dude in the nearby woods for the finishing touches for this rental” and it’s in Lake Arrowhead. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!

Idyllwild is an hour 30 minutes minimum away from Lake Arrowhead that’s not a hop skip and a jump it’s a whole other mountain

Ok plz allow me to bitch a moment, watching Roast My Rental and I loooooove Leslie Jones but they’re renovating a rental in Idyllwild and saying it’s in Temecula. They’re visiting a “nearby” winery, it’s in Temecula! That’s like saying Disneyland is in Palm Springs or Walnut Creek is SF. Stop itttt

A map showing how far Idyllwild is from Temecula, there’s several whole cities between them. Come on!

Whenever we swim the bees and wasps are always flying into the pool and almost drowning, ignoring bee waterers completely. We always keep a rescue stick on hand and transfer the patients to a potted plant next to the pool to dry off which we’ve now dubbed the Waspital 🐝🏥 📸 @drskorzy.bsky.social

End of an era, the Santee Drive In closed last year for developers and this is the last weekend of the swap meet. Husbeast and I went to browse the dregs, and dregs it was (anyone want a cute canvas tote filled with diabetes meds and medical scissors?) but I did get a cute Hummel marmot.
