1) Today I talked with a very nice person from Switzerland on my livestream and gained them as a follower.
2) I got the musicalized speedpaint of the image I did completed and uploaded to YouTube, as well as the recording of the livestream itself.
and 3) I made an awesome phone wallpaper while watching the Young Justice series. Golly, I love that show. <chef's kiss>
Sometimes, it feels like this. I have one year. One. Year. Before I have to make it work, and I will honestly say it's kinda scary.
But I can't turn back. I don't have a choice but to go forward. And not succumbing to panic is gonna be my constant challenge.
You guys rock. I can see the numbers going up from you clicking and visiting my galleries. You are so much appreciated. Thank YOU!!!!!
Links are in my profile.

Heh, art lovers! I could use your help. Did you know that clicking on the links in my profile going to my galleries can show great support? This is how google finds my works and indexes them. The more visitors an artist get, the better chances they are found and inicially make sales. I so would appreciate your help. Thank you, Danke, mercy, Gracie

Woke up to my brain trying to write a Swedish bop about how many jellyfish one eat in a lifetime ("hur mรฅnga maneter / man รคter / innan man dรถr") - probably by Kent or Cardigan.
I mean... A+ for effort, brain, but why curse me with this false earworm for the rest of the day???
I can with confidence say I'm just as good as any AI at drawing hands.

My day will start with a meeting at the Swedish Unemployment Agency, where I will be informed about the next "aid" program they'll be punting me into. I'd say it's as fun as making a root filling, but in the afternoon I actually have an appointment, at the dentist, for this. Some days, pals, _some_ days...
The puppy is 19 weeks old now and is almost as big as our older dog. She still has a lot of learning to do. We got hay for our garden and she could not resist.
There's a thunderstorm lingering, and this place is built on iron rich sand. This enhances 'thunderstorm headaches' and d:o dizziness. Expect a lot of typos and strange mistakes from me today :ablobfoxhypersnugowo:
Brief visit to Chatsworth yesterday for the @peakdistrictartisans coffee morning to welcome new members. I took the opportunity to gather inspiration - I'm planning a "full frontal" to follow on from Front & Centre. I was also rather taken by the bit of rewilding going on on on the bridge and a very sleepy lamb (apologies, I rarely do cute! ๐) #artist #artistlife #ChatsworthHouse #lamb #cute #embroidery #textileart #peakdistrict #derbyshire
I am looking for a good video editing program. I am trying to get away from using Adobe products. For my photography I use Affinity photo. But they don't have a video software. Does anyone have a video editing software they enjoy and which does not require monthly subscriptions?
Thanks
Me: Ok, I need yoga to keep my body together. I'll try to get up 30min earlier for a session.
My body: Oooooor we fall asleep again after shutting off the alarm.
Me: GAH!
I'm streaming today on Twitch, 1-3:00pm PDT (GMT-7), where I'll be working on a Kingfisher bird and halo image. I'll be sending it out eventually as a phone wallpaper, so if you'd like to watch how I make them now's the time!
I listen to soft folk and ambient guitar and piano music if you'd like to chill with me!
Dang. I was this close, _this_ close to get The Offspring to watch Give That Wolf A Banana. He claims he's not interested in Eurovision. Dang to Heck, someone's gonna' take my Swede card away for it!

New blog post up about my plans for the summer months between academic school years. Probably a bit overly ambitious, but at least I'm trying. :)

About two month ago I had found myself in the hospital with an unexplained infection. I never really found out how I got it. But though the whole body tune up process I found out my gallbladder was at risk. I started taking several subelements to support my gallbladder. Chanra Piera, and a Super Enzyme. By chance I found out that. some of those help with eye floats as well. I will switch to one with more bromelain . #ArtistLife #Health
I allowed Avast to purge my windows files the other day, and now the majority of my saved Blender exercises are gone. Stuff that my course explicitly told me to save because later lessons build on them. My laptop is old and started creaking about a week after I started learning animation, so I can't say for sure the antivirus is the problem. Usually it's me in the end. Looks like I'll need to spend one or two days battling bugs of all kinds.
If I want to keep my budget I probably shouldn't work 10.00 - 21.00 two days in a row, before going downtown for grocery shopping. I'm totally out of it, and in those cases I end up on a cafรฉ with a pile of expensive magazines. But Landings did manage to make an extremely ig worthy thing, so I felt I have to share.
How come everything I've learned about Blender disappears once I open... Blender?
Oof, what a day!!
1) I called my mom, and that was delightful. Got to talk to my sister, too!
2) I completed an entire bird painting on my livestream, start-to-finish, and I think it's really pretty.
3) Lastly I watched another episode of a series I really enjoy. Over dinner, with my hubby. It was awesome!
So honestly, it's been a nice day. I can't complain. And that really makes me feel good.
Spending my time looking for calligraphy courses on site in China.
Because I like a challenge, apparently*.
(*DuckDuckGo is convinced I want an online course. Granted, it's what I can afford, but I just want to daydream over a curriculum a bit. Is that too much to ask for???)
This year the deers actually ate my tulips - I was beginning to think this was a kind of dark fairy tale house owners tell to scare each other. I don't mind much - those flowers are leftover from earlier owner, so I neither lost money nor labor on it. Fact is, I'm pondering planting more tulips just for the deers. They're quite nice to have around.
It's the ants I can't stand...
"Annulรฉ" - It's just a routine, but it hurts: https://www.maison-rurale.fr/manifestation/atelier-visible-mending-2/
I didn't get enough people together for my #workshop tomorrow. All those interested people at the show work on Sundays - they forget too quickly (if you don't grab their email addresses). There are various village festivals tomorrow, people want fun.
More and more don't want to register, they come late or stay away. Not easy, because such a failure is a loss of earnings. How do you organise/handle workshops? #ArtistLife
I've been a mom for too long. The cat made a sad "hewo!" when she thought I ignored her - and I got a sudden urge to check her screen time.
As a mom I always wished for a spa day or some kind of get away. It's the best way to celebrate mothers day since women do not really get many break and alone time. Or the family could deep clean the house. (who I am kidding that never will happen) It's not like I love my kids less because I spend a day by myself getting pampered. I hope that my kids don't need a holiday to come see me after they move out. #Mothersday #moms #ArtistLife
It is so nice to go to one of our favored Chinese restaurants and be able to enjoy our meal without being rushed. I value good customer serve and those are the businesses we like to support.

Man weis nie was man gekauft hat wenn man tech savvy Kinder hat. Ich habe wohl Bohrer bestellt. Die sind gerade von Amazon geliefert worden.
It's a sign of the times when "Mephisto-Officiel"* is advertising for a general agent on LinkedIn.

One more week before I start teaching my summer drawing course. I am exited about this one, because I get the students every day. This ensures me they draw daily. In return I can see the excitement in their eyes. Some students coheir progress can be seen fast. Some students come to their first class terrified, believing they will not do well in this course.
It's up to me to break down their fear and build up their confidence

My University has their 100th birthday centennial celebration this year. We are still working on some fun activities for students and alumni. If your University has celebrated a big birthday and you are part of the arts. Let me know the fun things you did.
If you've followed me for long know I hate cooking - which isn't entirely true. I hate breaking flow, both when it comes to cooking and when it comes to arting. This means I loooooove batch cooking; freezer meals produced so I can work for days and still have food on time, and lots of nice creative cooking flow. But after yesterday, when I spent four hours making mustard patties and a vegetable soup, I actually feel a bit sore. Ouch!
Getting ready for the Summer art fair.
I love asparagus but not the asparagus beetle. I am a let live kind of person with a limit.
We will be beginning a week of sprucing up the art department. This is the only time we can clear out the cases and clean the glass form all the dust student artist created during the semester.
The only time they will look pristine for all the tours coming through our building.
We just came back from a chess park created in memory of a young man who was killed in an accident a year ago. So heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time.

Curly hair pros: I need your help. As I got older my hair got curlier. I blow dry them most days. Yesterday after I got cut up in the rain someone commended why I don't wear my hair curly? But when I do my hair looks frizzy. How do you manage your curls? #Hair #Frizz #ArtistLife

As an artist, you can't be too sensitive since it is not an easy business to be in. But at times things do get to me. I have jumped through the hoops since I was born. It would be nice to stop jumping and simply be. It might have been easier to comply with what society wanted, but that is just not me. This female is NOT going down without a fight. #ArtistLife #Art #ArtMatters #HumanRights

Here to all the creators and artist who persist and create beautiful art despite blatant copyright infringements, income theft and constant judgments from folks who never run a freelance business. You rock, keep your heads up and keep creating. #ArtistLife
I must admit it has gotten a bit depressing for artist lately. Several of the major POD companies are adding fees and taking bigger cuts of the small profits artist make. On top of it all there seem to be folks who just want artist to be a form of entertainment but not able to promote their art for sale. What is up with that? Do artist not deserve to make a living?

Friends, I need some #artist advice.
Is there a POD that *isn't* a POS?
I was planning on opening my Redbubble shop next month, but now that they've decided to go the way of society6 & add a bunch of BS tiers & fees I'm not interested in working with them! Please help
Hug an artist today.. There are POD sites ( companies artist use to get their artwork on print and home goods) who are now raising prices and charge artist to be on their platform. Our art is what makes it possible for them to be in business. It has been a dark month for artists. #BuyIntoArt #ArtistLife #ArtEconomy #artist

The last couple of years Iโve been hanging out in web design and online marketing forums to network and learn. And I have learned a ton from some very generous colleagues. I also learned I canโt relate to a lot them. Examples: business being a primary life focus, using questionable tech like tracking pixels, excitement around LLM/AI, etc. Perhaps my skepticism makes me a *better* marketing coach for #artists?? #ArtistLife
I love coffee, but can't have more than one mug or I fly high like a kite. Never could find a good tasting decaf. So I savor the one cup. #Coffee

To all my fellow adjunct professors, how are you doing? Here in my corner NJ, DE and PA universities are facing strikes. In Pa especially due to low wages and lack of benefits. Other states due to no job security and lack of benefits. Wondering about the future of higher education. #academia #education #ArtistLife #adjunct #teaching #lecturer #Educator
I take my puppy twice a week with me to the university. The students love her and seek her out during those days. She seems to pick specific students she really wants to see. It is often the quiet ones who stand back. By the time my daughter picks her up she is exhausted and ready for her afternoon nap
Will be teaching my students how to take professional portraits today. Getting the person to relax will be a big part of it. #ArtistLife #Portraits #Academia
My students worked on creating a list of faculty headshots and we noticed it was time for a glamour session. It will be like herding cats to get all the faculty to come and get new headshots done. #Portraits #Academia #ArtistLife
Surprised my elderly neighbor with some warm homemade cheese danishes this morning. They are her favored and the store was out of them. #food #baking #artistlife #community #aging
Taxes are done. For artists they are a bit more complicated and bring on stress and anxiety. In our house we celebrate the completion of our taxes with a trip to our favored Chinese restaurant. We did not want our kids to remember tax time only for the stress.
Thanks to all of you who support us living artist through boosting, visiting our galleries, and buying original art.

A rejection today.
Rejections in art are hard. Most applications fail. There were 186 applications for this single residency.
Applications are days of unpaid work for no reward.
Not even feedback.
Feedback would help.
A reason. Something to build on, to improve next time.
But nothing.
A while ago, I put the excuses I'd received for no feedback into a picture.
It was cathartic.

Hello everyone!
After a year that seems like a rollercoaster, this year life will include some changes, exciting ones. Consequently, I am going to change the website/portfolio and the webshop. But before all of that, I have organised a sale in my webshop, with discounts of -50% and -60% until the 26th of May. For all who is interested, go to: https://www.margodeweerdt.com/shop-1
Thank you if you order anything, I am very grateful!

This little girl really wants to play with our older 14-year-old dog. But my older girl is not quite up to it. We will get company on Sunday and a 2-year-old pub will come to visit. She will flip with puppy happiness as this boy loves playing too. #Puppy #dog #rescue #pet #artistlife #dogsofmastodon
She is 15 weeks now. So far she is doing well in her potty training. She rings the bell to go out. Did not like the rain last night. I used the large umbrella and coaxed her out. She responds to some basic comments but has a stubborn personality. Today she was supposed to go out and once downstairs she turned around and run back upstairs to her bed. I had to carry her downstairs to go out lol. The old dog and baby are getting closer. #ArtistLife #pet #dogs #rescuedog
Artist are a unique workforce. They create their own job, create jobs for others and whole industries and economies make money from art. Most never can take advantage of any social benefits due being a freelance businesses. Visual artist sell their art to support themself and their families.

Health update; During all the scanning they found gallbladder stones and my gallbladder irritated. The last scan showed that it was not irritated anymore, but the stones are still there. I read 2 out of 3 will have a gallstone attack. I was recommended to talk to my surgeon. Does everyone have a surgeon on call? Seems odd. So the question is do I play the lottery just change how I eat? #artistLife #health #gallblatter

Gardeners plight, we finally had good weather this Sunday. What do I do?! I want it all done in a day and hurt my bad shoulder. I iced it, took ibuprofen, and put a pillow under my arm to ease the stress. Yesterday I was not able to do my hair. Let's see how today goes. This is from an old injury during my chef years. I came to the conclusion that I need more money or power tools. #gardening #ArtistonMastodon #MastoArt #Art #Artist #LoveArt #ArtMatters #mastoart #ArtistLife #FediGiftShop

No I was receiving payments from multiple people.

I had a hospital appt in Sheffield yesterday and rather than drive all the way home (past son's school) and then back to pick him up from big band I had a little peramble on Bamford Edge. Amazed how many people were up there on a Wednesday afternoon in February, but I did manage some nice photos of rocks without people on them.

QUESTION for the artists and photographers out there:
What motivates you to post your work on social media/photo sites (like Flickr)? What compels you to do it? What do you get out of it?

Do you ever think about the economy of the arts? If you do you know lots of money is made on the backs of artists. Yet artists are often still struggling to make a living. Just like folks working in other occupations, they need food, clothing, shoes, and housing to live. Thank you for appreciating and supporting the arts. #Arts #ArtBusiness #Artist #ArtEconomy #ArtistLife #ArtMatters #IrisRichardsonArtist #ArtEducation #EconomyofArts
This is Mr. Kitty. He is an 8 year old rescue kitty who keeps me going through thick and thin, having ridden across the United States with me, sleeping on my lap in the moving truck for most of the trek.
He is a very good art assistant. โค๏ธ

Oh wow. I just found out that shortly before I burnt out in 2020 I took all the photos and measurements of my then-new artworks. I had totally forgotten about that. ๐ #ArtistLife
Oh, wait, what? There are *another* 20 or so abstract gestural paintings here that I haven't posted? Oh noes...

Good morning Tootsers, who else woke up too early?
What's your wake-up music?
I'm going to put down a few brushstrokes before heading to work.
