Anyone for some homemade vegan blueberry scones?

When I am stressed and anxious, I find baking relaxing, as it gives me something else to focus on besides my troubles for at least a short while. Plus, SCONES.

Just a reminder that everyone is entitled to wear a mask, and it is no one's business as to why you do. No one gets to decide for you that you need to explain or justify your reasons.

I suspect that if they are not wearing one themselves, they will not understand your reasons, anyway.

This simple drawing took waaay more practice and time than you would think it should have. 😅

I hope it brings a moment of calm to your timeline. If yours is anything like mine, you could use it. 🖤

🖤FInal Day of the Shop Sale 🤍

With the warmer months coming, a lightweight tote bag is a practical option for carrying your daily essentials. I use this one when I want to take a few extras on a walk, such as a sketchbook and pencils.

1. Do you know if I am unaccompanied?

2. If I am walking alone, a solo walk does not mean I do not encounter people.

3. Covid lingers in the air.

Thank you for the compliment about my eyes.

The illogic if it, right? I do not attempt to understand their reasoning, as the irrationality is too great. I can just acknowledge that it is a thing.

So....if no one cares about the pandemic anymore, why do they care if you are wearing a mask?

It was perfect walking weather here in the PNW today.

P.S. I wish people would just wear masks.

Sunday observation:

A society in which a woman posting clips of herself passing gas gets millions of likes on Instagram tells me all I need to know about why we are where we are in human history.

And gives me less than zero hope for a better future.

This black ink piece was inspired by the Japanese style of meditative sumi-e painting. The spare color palette & minimal brushstrokes allow the essence of the subject to be the focus.

As is the case with many current threats to the human community, by the time that most people begin to fully understand the extreme danger posed by AI, it will be too late, because overwhelming damage will already have been done.

The war that the US and Israel are brutally waging against Iran is ill-conceived, reckless, and evil.

The world is a mess. We can't stop all the evil, but each of us can make conscious choices to refrain from adding to the suffering. Here are a few ways:

1. Wear a respirator mask in all public spaces.

2. Do not allow the cruelty of others to harden you.

3. Make nonviolence your default response.

Just a cute little watercolor drawing of a house. Sometimes, you just want to see something cheerful and fun, you know? Especially something with a Greek Islands vibe (or maybe that's just me).

I would love to do just that, yes!! I have so many ideas...

And, I'm working on a wordless picture book called "Monk & Puppy" that I'm currently submitting to agents/publishers (no dice so far).

My despair-fighting deed of the day: donated an exhibition piece to an awesome Ypsi therapist office / health community hub, because everyone deserves some wild wonder when they're going through it!
