The image is a close-up black-and-white photograph of a flower. The focus is on the central part of the flower, showing densely packed, textured structures around the center that could be stamens or pollen clusters. Radiating from the center are the petals, which appear elongated and slightly curved. The petals exhibit various shades of gray, creating a subtle contrast that emphasizes their linear texture. The petals have fine lines and striations running along their length, contributing to the image's intricate detail. The composition provides a dramatic, almost abstract perspective of the flower.

Meet Norman, my newest buddy. He's relaxing after a whirlwind of chasing, biting, and generally creating mayhem (his specialty). ❤️ #BlueSkyArtShow #Relax #DogsOfBluesky #Dogs #PetPhotography #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersOfBluesky #Photography #ArtYear #smArtist #Dachshund

A blond dachshund puppy named Norman is sleeping on my lap. His front legs are crossed and you get just a glimpse of his sweet puppy belly.

Pencil drawing of a model who likely fell asleep, 2024. #BlueSkyArtShow #Relax #smArtist #ArtYear #LifeDrawing #FigureDrawing #drawing

This drawing was done at a local drawing night at an art gallery. The model is laying down with one arm extended above her head and her legs are propped up on a box covered by a blanket. The artist had 20-25 minutes to complete the drawing.

A white clay ghost with purple botanical pieces on it and a tea light underneath it that is illuminating the eyes and mouth. It sits on a black sequined cloth.

An old bit of temporary assemblage for #AnimalArtTuesday. The photo was used for a short class at the V&A on laser cutting and screen printing. More in #Alt-Text. I think I'd be happiest if I could just make recycled bling carousels all day. #SensoryArt #Glamour #MoreIsMore #ArtYear #smArtist

A photograph of a temporary assemblage arrangement. A cut out of a Swarovski crystal horse has been arranged with a mix of jewellery, paper, plastic, and leather to approximate a side view of a carousel horse with the platform and canopy.

Canopy: Gold paper food safe tray liner with a scalloped lacy edge, a necklace of large pink and cream faux pearls, and a cluster of vintage metal floral brooches.

Middle: The black faux leather reverse side of a large envelope clutch, a black and white striped paper bag, a magazine cutout of a Swarovski horse, a thin crystal tennis bracelet is around the horse's neck with a vintage clip-on earring as a medallion.

Platform: A rectangular box is covered in a plastic bag with a zebra stripe pattern. A strand of size graduating silver beads runs just beneath the hooves of the horse, a necklace of pearlized charcoal beads lays on the top of the box. At the very bottom and partially obscured by the box is a necklace of baroque pearls.

The short course run over a few days at the V&A was about taking one of your own photos/art, turning it into a vector illustration that could be used by a laser cutter. The design was engraved on a piece of ply wood and then masking sections were cut and used to screen print on part of the design.

As with most things I do, it was a bit too much detail to be a really successful final project in the allotted time/as a first attempt at a few new skills... But the process was a great learning experience!
