I managed to capture the silhouette of the Golden Gate Bridge with the sun bursting through one of its pillars. ☺️

Thanks for reposting! @lunch-meat.bsky.social ❤️

Not sure if you're feeling that or being sarcastic. I think it's harder to get over than makes sense, at least for me. :) Don't block me for saying that. 😆

Thank you @misssc.bsky.social ❤️

You're welcome, I especially like the story with it. ❤️

Getting the 9 of cups is a good dream! :)

This was a nice way to spend a couple hours

Lit Petals, 13/35 Behind Closed Doors - Abstract geometric painting of a multi-coloured house at night, rendered in bold, saturated colours against a yellow sky. The composition features a red facing wall with a rounded yellow arch-topped window showing vertical bars or railings, adjacent to a purple or magenta-walled section with a yellow rectangular door. Both structures share a geometric aesthetic with clean angular forms. A stylised bare tree with a dark trunk and delicate branch lines appears on the left side against the dark background, with small touches of colour suggesting buds or flowers. The foreground shows a teal or dark green ground plane with an orange circle and a curving red pathway.

Paint-stained hands arrange flowers in mason jars. The gallery rejected her again. Today the kitchen light hits the petals just right, so she fumbles with the camera instead.🎨💔📸

Expressionistic landscape scene in progress, in which the foreground is cast in bright red-orange tones with dark shadows: an outdoor scene framed by massive bright red-orange treetrunks on the left and right, between which two bright red silhouetted figures appear to be running across the page from right to left: a humanoid carrying a long thin object in one hand and following close behind, a smaller creature approximately the size of a medium to large dog but appearing to have the wings and antennae of an insect. The background is largely unfinished, a flat green expanse in the lower distance, stretching away and framed on the left and right by surreal blue mountains that also shrink into the distance. The sky has not yet been painted.
