His stage name is BAD BUNNY... a bad-ass artist and honey-of-a-Bunny. His given name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. He is a handsome 31-year-old American citizen. Make no mistake. 1917: The Jones Act grants U.S. citizenship to all Puerto Ricans. I'll be watching... I'm a huge fan!

Bad Bunny wearing tinted dark red glasses with gold frames, hair gelled looking quite handsome! White shirt and tan tie.

Multi-coloured willow leaves collect at a puddle’s edge in the autumn while bare branches and the sky’s reflection add watery surroundings.

Hot off the digital highway! I’m pleased to announce my group show on Bowen Island with Salmon Arm artist Sara Weins and Vancouver potter, Ilena Lee Cramer. I’ve been painting like mad. #canadianartists #acrylicpainting #artwork #bowenisland #pottery #groupshow #aninevitablebeauty #beauty

Poster for group exhibit An Inevitable Beauty : what was lost is found again in paint and clay. Bright yellow lettering is underlaid with a watery image of cottonwood leaves floating on dark water.

I’ve been working on this for about a month and I think it’s close to done. We shall see - I like to look at my paintings for a while before I finish them up with varnish and hangers. This Is Water, acrylic on canvas, 24x36 in #art #artneversleeps #artwork #painting #acrylicpainting #leaves #water

Maple leaves float on a puddle that reflects a bright blue sky swirling with veils of thin clouds and bare tree branches. Acrylic on canvas 2 feet high by 3 feet wide.

It’s peak laburnum flowering season at VanDusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver. #vancouver #vandusen #laburnumwalk

A pathway under a canopy of cascading goldenchain laburnum flowers is lined with purple alliums and bluebells creating a heavenly setting laced with sweet fragrance.

🚨 The Liberal Party will lead Canada's next government. CBC just called it; too early to know if it'll be a majority or minority government. "A stunning reversal," says the CBC: Conservatives led by *huge* margins throughout 2024, but Trump's arrival was a big factor in changing everything.

"Variola Douglas." During the period of colonization, Indigenous people had little to no immunity to European diseases. Smallpox caused round, bumpy lesions on the body… and death. Part of the monumental #DaalkaatliiDiaries series now at #MOCAToronto

A store window display in white vinyl lettering reads “Proudly Canadian” with a maple leaf. The window reflects a city street in the background.
