A collage of 12 black and white architecture photographs - Georgian, Victorian, Art Deco, Brutalist etc
I love the sheer variety of #Glasgow #Scotland 's #architecture and the #history.
Also I cant wait to see what murals are added in the future...

We don't have to wait until November to remember their sacrifice, or the lessons from it

Vivid moss on skeletal tree
(2/2)⬆️...as we're going to be living in an elevated place Also, I'm convinced from my 15 years of #photographs that the local #climate is getting more humid, there's more moss/algae/lichen appearing on local buildings. It's not just they're not being cleaned. On trees/other surfaces as well

#UK folks, do you have outdoor #weather monitoring equipment at your house?
I used to have a cheap🪫 powered weather station to monitor things, they aren't resilient. #climate
Curious about the wind rates & monitoring...⬇️
The corner of a blonde sandstone building with a intricate spiral abstract strip of decoration reminiscent of ammonites and art noveau
I'm not sure how modern this is, but I love the stone carving on the corner of West Nile street and West George street #Glasgow, #Scotland.

#Glasgow Central station 💔🔥 #scotland tonight.
I hope the #Firefighting teams stay safe, given the building collapse and likely lithium batteries in vape shop.
I walked down that street yesterday 🥺

The mural depicts a person confused and overwhelmed by recycling options, weather and on the right as a climate change affected drought area with refugees and silhouette moving across. On the left in a green fertile land, there are wind turbines and and Earth and hands in a heart shape in the sky, and the statue of the Duke of Wellington wearing a traffic cone is firing a cannon with all the things we don't want including pollution and an angular distinctive electric car.
A red and yellow mural says look out for each other and features three living bees and some dead bees and multiple silhouettes of disabled people and a crow at the bottom. All of the text has graffiti and scribbles in it from project participants
No worries! It was wonderful to see the mural in real life! Thanks for inviting me to participate

Along with other Glaswegians, I worked with the @sensing-climate.bsky.social team
(Working representing #climatechange and #disability ) to contribute ideas to #mural #art in #Glasgow #Scotland.
I got to help paint it too! 🎨🖌️
Check it out from Midday on 6th March, 2026 in the G.E.S.H, Easterhouse

"Where's Chad?"
"It's next to Nigeria where Andino comes from! She went in the summer!"
I showed them the North Atlantic current, trade winds, the point where three countries meet up at the top of Scandinavia... #map #geography #education #curiousity

It's been here since they were babies.
They thought it was funny to spin around as toddlers.

Managed to get the frame on this picture, for charity #art show, I hope! Need to add mirror plates... #mixedmediaart #collageart
This shows the texture achieved by gluing the fabric to canvas and adding the acrylic paint.

#Mixedmediaart #collageart - glued scrap #fabric, #acrylic and glued beads on canvas (No stitching used)🖌️🎨
Made with scrap woven fabric/ #textiles waste from Oscha Slings.
It's great to be able to preserve the little bits to add texture & prevent them going to landfill
Now I need to know how I got a little Winnie the Pooh shaking it in the corner of my insta messages.
Where'd he come from... 🤣
Two 25cm by 30cm canvas boards. One seascape with bright coloured sunset on right and a more neutral dark green coloured landscape on the left.

Unflinching refusal to use or allow the use of A.I. in reading & writing should be the uncontroversial, default position of teachers from K-12 to colleges & universities. If our administrators tell us we "have to" we tell them to eff off. We will not kill the planet's water for systemic plagiarism.
