“Smiley Bear”
😃🧸🔪
Was thinking about reposting this yesterday, but it wasn’t until today that the thought of another summer series pushed it over the edge. So, if I found the time and inspiration to do another summer series, which summertime trope should I use?

“Three Cats”
🐈🐈‍⬛🐈
Hey y’all. Been gone-ish a lot longer than expected. For reasons. Please accept this portrait of the trio of cats being raised by @kendra_leigh02 as payment of the cat tax.
🐱🐱🐱
Anyway, I’ll be posting a couple other things here on no specific schedule. Couple of them may even be considered seasonally late. I’m ok with that, and I hope you are too. In theory, I’ll be posting more elsewhere, but even that idea feels like a lot.
😐😐😐
If you read this far and are having specific feelings that something not right is happening - you’re not alone.

“Lit Fuse”

Here we go - Last few hours of 2024. Good luck and warm wishes for 2025! I’ll be taking a little break to recharge, but will probably be back with some new art in February. Until then, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

“Snow Cat 2024”
❄️🐈☃️
Eight years sounds like a long time, but it also feels like a handful of days. For my last full piece of 2024 I went back and repainted a piece from 2016. While the update definitely captures a closer representation of what I had originally imagined, it also loses a certain level of whimsy present in the original. But that is just an opinion that comes from a place of reflection.
❄️🐈☃️
How have you changed in the past year (or eight)?

"Snowflake"
❄️❄️❄️
Cute but deadly. This tiny snowflake may not look like much, but when joined in legion by its fellow flakes, can be the enemy of many travelers during this season. Be careful out there!

“Berry Merry”
🕊️🍓🧚‍♀️
I’m sure y’all have heard of sugarplum fairies, but do any of ya’ll know what sugarplums are?
🕊️🍓🧚‍♀️
Apparently, they have nothing to do with plums at all, and the closest we have to them today are sugar-coated almonds!
🕊️🍓🧚‍♀️
If you happen to be out and about in the #fargomoorhead area, stop by @aptitudecreativestudios out at @westacresmall and say “hi”!
