First panel of the kitchen backsplash. The scenes are the views out our windows depicting the seasons and recent history of the land around us. This is early spring and the first of the farmers is clearing and working the land. The church was built in 1875 and is now our home.
Just moved to mstdn.ca from mastodon.online. Been here since early Nov.

Once again I wanted to show off the skills I've honed using the manga tools in Clip Studio Paint. It was just a thing several of my friends and I "wanted to learn eventually" so I'm still trying to make better and better comics day by day.
For these I was pleased with myself for transcribing dialogue presented cardboard cut-out style from the game into manga form.
Tonight's #ArtAdventCalendar has me showing off this beaded rosary that I made earlier this year. It is a Franciscan Crown rosary, consisting of seven decades in commemoration of the Seven Joys of the Virgin.
Due to the construction, the lariat is too small for most adult heads. :(
Day 25: Only seems fitting to end my year-in-review #BelieveInFilm#ArtAdventCalendar with this one. This woman moved into my house this year and changed my life. I'm amazed she's not murdered me yet, but it's been great having her around. Hopefully she sticks around for some time to come.
Merry Christmas, everyone. Hope you're all having a lovely time with people you care about, too.

I took this photo of Alex last summer. She's wearing a sheer floral yellow jacket as a blouse and holding a small vase with some yellow water lilies that were growing near my cottage.
Mom always used Great-great-great Aunt Becky's 1850's Tulip quilt as holiday decor. I own the finished quilt and another top with the identical pattern. (Rebecka Shaul, 1852, Herkimer County, NY) #ArtAdventCalendar#quilt#AntiqueQuilt#applique#TulipQuilt
#ArtAdventCalendar Day 22 it's #Dec25 afternoon-- hope anyone who celebrates in any way is enjoying and/or surviving! The meaningful day for me is Dec 21, but we still treat this like a #holiday. Just two of us here, we had a nice pizza breakfast followed by pumpkin pie with ice cream...lol.. I'll cook a #vegetarian meal a bit later.
This view is from the morning of Dec 22, first sun of the real 'new year'! I don't often see #sunrises, ran out in boxers, t-shirt and rubber boots...lol #Solstice
