One down, one to go… Rhinebeck or bust! 🧶 #knitting

Critical Rhinebeck prep complete

It was exciting to see how all the art ended up displayed last night at the opening of the Postcard Exhibition, flowing around the room in ripples of color and theme. And always fun to see my work on a wall! #watercolor #artexhibit

Got to hang up some paintings in the local café yesterday! #watercolor

I want one so badly but I am afraid to adopt these tentacles in earthquake country! If they dance off a shelf I’ll be crushed

Ther ys no ethical use of generatyve A.I.

Dropped off these four little paintings today at Pacific Art League for the upcoming Postcard Exhibition! See you October 2 at the opening. #watercolor

IT IS TIME. buff.ly/pykYN6f

Also maybe I’m getting back into the weaving groove a little bit! Fingers crossed. #rigidheddle #weaving

🔴 This sunny daffodil just found a new home! More original art is available from my @fybe-art.bsky.social shop: fybe.art/seller/veron... #watercolor #botanicalart

Generative A.I. ys the opposite of art

Red oak leaves in process… #artsky #botanicalart

Why would anyone willingly feed their human created art into the plagiarism slop machine?!

The squirrels have finally discovered my dried sunflower heads that I was sort of saving for the birds. The sunflower stems aren’t very sturdy. This is going to be fun to watch

New 5x7 originals, now on my new shop at @fybe-art.bsky.social ! Art and creation is the very core of our humanity. Happy to be out here fighting against slop :P #watercolor #illustration fybe.art/seller/veron...

Good lord it’s too hot. Seriously tempted to go sleep in the hammock

Had a beautiful visit to the coast today.

The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

Leftover pie for breakfast: a time-honored American tradition

Thrilled to receive a ribbon today at the Sunnyvale Art Club Annual Juried Show for my watercolor! Come by the Sunnyvale Main Library this weekend to see over 80 great pieces.

🧶 My new brioche scarf pattern, Turn Up the Gain, is now available on Ravelry, Etsy, and my website - and is half off through August 5. Go forth and squish! www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

🧶 Debuting at Flock Fiber Festival this weekend… Turn Up the Gain is a fluffy fuzzy brioche scarf that goes to 11 😉

sometimes my phone screen is too dim so i'll take a minute to hold him up to a lamp to inspire him. when i turn him back around his screen is once more bright and cheerful. who else can we hold to the light in this way. who else needs to remember how good they can be

Watercolor WIP detail. I keep returning to this sky and these towering rocks.

Baby’s first powerlifting max out today. Surprised myself pulling 225! I will now be napping forever 😂

Apricots, transformed

Getting ready to taste the sunshine

Good morning #bloomscrolling

Well, if nothing else, we’re all learning how people work on scaffolding

The knowledge that I can lift more than Drake and Pete Hegseth as a woman in my 40s is tremendously satisfying.

Randomly deadlifted way more than I was expecting to today! It’s getting exciting

Managed to sneak the word “avuncular” into normal conversation.

If you see this, post your bird art!

Heck yeah.

Me, when someone tries to get me to use AI:

I’ve been tricked! Too many spice jars on the table meant I accidentally put black&red pepper onto my oatmeal instead of cinnamon sugar 😖🥵

Here’s another shot of what’s on the little tapestry loom, since you liked the first one so much! 🧶 #weaving

Playing with my new tapestry loom! #weaving

Tiny knitting joy: not counting while casting on a ton of stitches, then counting and coming up within 2 of the number I needed. 🧶

As usual for a Monday, I wanna eat cookies and lay on the floor

Brought this fine fellow to the Fine Arts competition and show at the Maryland Sheep & Wool festival this weekend! I loved getting in all those details on the ram’s face. #watercolor

Yesterday’s airplane crochet. 🧶 Stitching and audiobooks make the time go faster.
