Because it doesn't happen very often, I celebrate every time somebody purchases one of my maze prints.

This is the maze called "Drought". I started drawing it during the wildfires of 2020. We were confined in our home as the air outside was over-the-top hazardous with smoke and 4mm of ash settled on every surface outside. I drew as I waited to hear the evacuation order that, thankfully, never came.

Magnetosphere
Detailed Study, Oil, 8x 6 inches
Available tomorrow morning on http://www.EveryDayOriginal.com

Without our magnetosphere to protect us, the solar wind may have long ago stripped away Earth’s atmosphere, leaving Earth looking much more like Mars looks today: barren, dry, and lifeless.



Most of us don’t spend much time thinking about our magnetosphere, but it’s one of the many extraordinary things that make life possible on our little world.

#sketchbook doodle. I really like the color of this ink, but it's pretty smudgy.

hello spring! 🌻

Found a clip of Bob Ross saying "We don't make mistakes, we have happy accidents". And I think if you keep this attitude in mind, it's easier to just keep going. #MastoArt #tapeandmagazines

Finally finished my #Mermay piece! Thanks to AdorkaStock for the pose reference! #art #mastoart #mermaid #digitalart #digitalpainting

Set up and pointing southeast with an unobstructed view of the horizon. Just waiting for moon rise in about 20 minutes. Let’s do this!

Another old #collage #poem, from a few years ago. One of my favorite ways to make a collage poem is to take a structure from a more mundane genre of material (in this case, math proofs) and then fill in the gaps with subject matter that's more fantastical/surreal/mysterious (vaguely ominous implications about aliens). It pretty much always produces interesting results :)

F is for Flight. Another postcard in my series called "Journey of the Imagination" for Tom Froese's Skillshare course, The Style Class.

I always thought flying over the fields in a jet made them appear like a crazy quilt. So this was the prefect image to represent watching a young person imagining flight.

Had a possibly fun idea for an art exercise!

This is a track called Rising Winds by Mid-Air Machine, from the album At Arm's Length - https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Ask%20Again/at-arms-length-piano-centric-songs-1
Distributed as Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 (CC BY-SA 4.0)

Take a long canvas, start at one end, and draw/paint your interpretation of the music as the track progresses. It's a 2m40s track so it's a quick-ish exercise. Don't think about it too much, just paint what you feel.

Tag with #ArtMusic then everyone can compare what they did :D

Today I will spend most of the day looking at the Event Horizon Telescope image of Sgr A*!

This is the first direct image of the emission immediately outside of our Milky Way’s central supermassive black hole!!!
