How to order a house portrait from me:

I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia, but I would be happy to coordinate shipping for any buyers who are interested.

Painting treasured homes and neighbourhoods brings me joy. Come share that joy with me!

#Halisky if you have 👧🏼👦🏾in the #HalifaxRCE you need to be concerned! This will mean that only high schools will be guaranteed to have a library specialist in their school. Loosing the LSS in jr highs will be detrimental to classroom teachers who rely on the library specialist! @hfxgov.bsky.social

Snow melts on the ground. Deep shadows of trees bounce off the walls and roof of the yellow home. A garbage bag leans against the chain link fence. Clouds are visible behind the smokestacks.

Tried a technique from @jimmusilpainter.bsky.social 's website. Markers and an orange underpainting!

"March Sun" painted in gouache on canvas. I'm going to be testing cold-press watercolour paper mounted on board next - but canvas is what I had today.

Hey #HaliSky Did you know that funding for your school libraries comes from @hfxgov.bsky.social supplementary funding budget? Did you know within the schools we’ve heard it’s up for being cut? Please call your councillors and tell them how important it is to keep our school library specialists!

Bernie Sanders @berniesanders
It's not just that Oligarchs control our economy. It's not just that they control our political system. Increasingly, they control what we see, hear and read.
Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, owns X.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin - the second- and third-richest men - control
YouTube.
Jeff Bezos owns Twitch.
Mark Zuckerberg owns Facebook and Instagram.
And Larry Ellison will soon control TikTok.
Almost all of them sat right behind Donald Trump at his inauguration. All of them bankrolled him. All of them are getting richer by the day.
But it's not just social media. Ellison and his son David, with the help of Trump, will soon control CNN — not to mention CBS, HBO, MTV, Miramax, BET, Warner Brothers and many more. In fact, just this morning, after CNN published reporting on the President's mishandling of the war in Iran, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said, "the sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better."
This is a startling example of the kind of state control you see in authoritarian states, not a democracy.
I believe most journalists are factual and report what they see. The real question is: What are they told to emphasize by their corporate bosses? What are they told to ignore? Whose stories are being told?
Larry Ellison has made billions of dollars from Al. Will you hear much serious discussion about the economic, social and existential threats of Al on TikTok, CBS or CNN?
Ellison is a personal confidant of Benjamin Netanyahu, a notorious war criminal, and a supporter of Netanyahu's genocidal war in Gaza. Will we see criticism of Israel on his media platforms?
Information is power. Democracy cannot survive a system where a handful of billionaires control our media and social media platforms. We need a media system that serves the public, not just the Oligarchs who own them. This is an enormously important issue that deserves thoughtful discussion and real solutions. What do you think?

Do you want a combined 2 million of Nova Scotia's and Halifax' tax dollars, that we are supposedly in short supply of, supporting Billionaire Trump loyal oligarchs the Ellison Family's SailGP coming to our harbour this June?

Instead of grants, programs and wages of Nova Scotians?

N.S. man acquitted of intimate images charges | CBC News A Nova Scotia man who used artificial intelligence to create nude images of high school classmates has been acquitted of charges under the intimate images provisions of the Criminal Code.

Man made A.I. porn of his classmates from clothed photos he found of them on facebook and faced no charges because our out of date laws haven't caught up to current technology and can't legally define it as a crime.

Because Nova Scotia.

Going to the rally at noon. Hopeful that the 10:45 AM press conference will be Tim rolling his eyes and saying "I GUESS Nova Scotians don't want this budget, so we're going to take a step back" but I'm not hopeful. #halisky #novascotia #nspoli
