Skepticism

Looking at this painting has me wondering. There are some rather uninformed, in my opinion, humans who are skeptical of global warming and humans' part in what I consider to be a scientifically backed fact. I wondered if the earth is just as skeptical of those particular humans. "Are they for real?!?!" I figure this is the look the earth would be giving them.

Hear me Roar

Hear me roar....

Feeling wonderfully inspired by the Women's March in Austin, Texas on Saturday. And the best thing about this painting is that my 21 year old son sat beside me as I sketched and then painted, all the while sketching his own amazing version.  Beyond awesome! Hear US roar!

Meow!

I had the best time with girlfriends Saturday night. We cut up old sweaters and made cozy cat hats. Here are mine! Perfect for wearing at the march at the Capitol if I decide to go...sometimes peaceful rebellion comes in the form of a homemade hat. "Meow!"

Wounded

I was inspired by one of my wonderful new Pantsuit Nation friends to create a companion piece to my painting, "Your heart knows the way. Run in that direction". So I created a piece reflecting my experience and the experience of many others since the election. I started by scribing my thoughts about the election results, my sadness and my hopes. I crumpled the sheets of paper and lit parts of it on fire. I set those thoughts free to go wherever they needed to go. The remaining bits of paper became the background of my piece. I painted the burned holes red to reflect the wounding that so, so many have felt, their safety and well being now feeling threatened.

I'm thankful that I'm surrounded by so many people who, while acknowledging the negative direction that this election may represent, also see the positive that is coming from it as well. The stirring of activism, the connecting with strangers that might not have ever happened otherwise.

I'm going to have prints of this painting available here and will donate $5 per sale to the ACLU. The original may be purchased at the link below the picture.
