A wee bit of #pleinair #watercolours this late morning, if it looks weak it’s because it is 😄 I needed a break after this first layer so I might go back to it, or not !
I used to watch this show!! I don’t remember thinking it was weird back then but it was certainly very creative 🩵
"Téléchat" now has an official YouTube channel (Season 1 already available) + new short episodes soon on Instagram. A children's television show aired in France in 1983, created by Roland Topor & Henri Xhonneux ("Marquis"). It was weird, I loved it when I was a kid. www.catsuka.com/news/2026-09...
This is an art that I respect a lot and I feel I do not have the patience for 🙌🏻 the intricacy and the depth you can get only by cutting pieces of paper is mindbogging 🤩

I painted this wee #watercolour #seascape with my Rosemary and co brushes, I’m looking to source my purchases as locally as possible and there’s definitely a good few options in the UK 🕺🏻 Really love the brushes 💜
… although a bit of palettemuck ™️ comes in really handy !! I’ve done the same scene in #watercolours to compare with #gouache, very much loving both and always amazed at how different they look despite having basically the same ingredients.
This strikes a chord and is a perfect reminder of how evocative and personal art can be 🖤

I like Peaky the goat 🐐
I really hope this takes off. There needs to be a creative storefront marketplace that actually bans genai and drop shipping, and I hope it's a 100% ban. Etsy is completely ruined and not artist friendly. Much luck to Fybe! fybe.art
Another paintalong I did yesterday of @sarahburnsstudio.bsky.social ‘s #gouache boxes with #Craftamo, definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made for art practice 🧡 I love following along her videos, always a soothing and educational time ✨
Correct language: "OpenAI at fault" If an AI tech firm says its "AI went rogue", let's be clear. The AI tech firm is at fault for designing a dangerous product, in the same way a car manufacturer is at fault for designing a dangerous car. The car itself is not at fault. www.bbc.com/news/article...
OpenAI says its AI went rogue and launched 'unprecedented' cyber-attack
It is one of the first publicly disclosed cyber-attacks carried out by AI without direct human involvement.

I’m also making progress with #knitting my sock, the wool is so soft and I’m seriously loving the colours 🧡 that’s definitely my colour palette
Aaaaaaaaannnddd SOCK ! Well nearly a #sock, after starting again completely once and frogging several rows a couple of times, it does not look too bad although last time I said that I had to start again 🍀 First go at the #magicloop 🪄 and dpns too, we’re learning new #skills guys 🕺🏻
A couple of prep #sketches I did yesterday and I’m just surprised at how good this one is 🤣 that’s how much confidence I have in me, I’m not expecting to nail it ! Anyhow, here’s to making things anyway 💃 Now to a bigger version 🏋🏻♀️
