Doing a little painting today #blueskyart #art #painting

Tending to my increasingly overgrown balcony garden. Got a few interesting ones going. Banana plants, grapefruit trees, strawberries, cucumbers, peppers, an avocado tree, a coffee plant, even a dragon fruit cactus. #apartmentgarden #garden #nature

I have a few paintings that have been sitting unfinished for a while. Finally done with summer school so it’s time to knock these out. #art #painting #artist

A few paper making samples from my middle school students in summer school. #BlueskyArt #Art #Teacher #ArtTeacher

I wonder if other countries coming to the US for the World Cup feel similar to what it was like going to Germany for the 1936 Olympics…

Officially done with my Master’s Degree. #classof2026

Watercolor demo from class today. #BlueskyArt #teacher #art #artteacher

#NoKings

Working on my #NoKings poster.

Starting on my reading list for the year.

Few photos from some recent student art. They’ve been building wire armatures and making character models with oil based clays. #Teacher #ArtTeacher #BlueSkyArt #Sculpture

I propose we no longer refer to them as MAGA. I think Citizens under Nazi Tutelage, or C.U.N.T. For short is a bit more appropriate.

Getting some painting done today. #painting #flowers #art #BlueSkyArt #honeybee #timelapse

Been a little bit since I last posted. Been swamped with school but here we are back at it. Got a couple new pieces in the works. #painting #art #nature #WIP #BlueSkyArt #honeybees

Meanwhile in Kansas City #NorthernLights #Nature #Photography

Hunting for materials #art #BlueSkyArt #papermaking

Making something interesting with these freshly fallen leaves. #art #BlueSkyArt #papermaking #fallvibes

I’m planning a class for a high school art curriculum. Animation, with a focus on stop motion. So I’m building my own character and budget armature. #art #teacher #animation #claymation #characterdesign #BlueSkyArt #darksouls

I hear the drums… the drums of liberation. #nokings #onepiece #kansascity

Kansas City really is a weird place to be right now. Every time I go out in public, I see someone in a red hat. And I have to stop and think, “Is it a Chiefs fan, or are we about to fight?”
