#Whimsy
Got a chili cook-off at work tomorrow.
Decided to print a trophy for the winner.
Then decided to print two incrementally smaller trophies.
Largest trophy will be filled with beans. Smaller trophy will have fewer beans. Smallest trophy will have a singular bean.
The prints are printing so pretty and I am gilding them 🌟. I’m excited 🤩! Each is unique; limited edition - only 60 available, so they will be rare. The first ten collectors will also get an art print of my original Inktober sketch 🖋️😊 Order now in time for holiday shipping: https://www.jclittleportraits.com/fine-art-shop/deadline-print

Stargazers vs Celestial Dragons
Whimsical spells fill the air as a towering observatory atop a mystical mountain hosts a fierce battle between stargazers and celestial dragons in the midst of a enchanting magical storm

I converted a sketchbook page into a paper-cut scene with a (somewhat temporary) custom lighting rig.

How I painted “Spawn” ☂️ a metaphor for freedom, hope, creativity and personal growth, even in turbulent times. A meaningful gift for someone you love. Prints available 👉 link in bio.

Update on “Deadline” 🎨. It’s actually terrifying to do these thin black lines - no room for error 🖤.

A quotation from Chamfort, Nicolas:
«
Love, such as it exists in high society, is merely an exchange of whims and the contact of skins.
[L’amour, tel qu’il existe dans la société, n’est que l’échange de deux fantaisies et le contact de deux épidermes.]
»

Well, that actually didn't suck as much as expected. "Why would you?", you might ask. My choices are my own and mainly driven by #whimsy and #curiosity.
Hope to see you at the Women’s Art Society of Montreal show opening in Montreal, this Friday evening 🤗.

An artful dance of rusted grace, this white metal fence, with its fetching louvres, discreetly shields the world from a backdrop of construction whimsy. 🏗️🕊
風格ある少し錆びた白い金属のフェンスは、魅力的なルーバー付きのしっかりとしたパネルで、見苦しい建設の無駄を巧妙に隠しています。🏢🍂

#Introduction
So I am new to Beige Party, but not new to the Fediverse. I decided it would be prudent to have a 2nd account for when my other instance is going through “shenanigans.” But I also thought it would be nice to have a place, on this here #Mastodon, where I could maybe have a little respite from the overwhelming seriousness of life. So this account will be about silliness and #whimsy and #art and #knitting socks and #crocheting colorful blankets and planting a #NativeGarden and #BloomScrolling and favorite #tv shows and #movies and #writing and the poetry of #SongLyrics.
I live in the #Midwest with my husband and my son in a #MidCentury house where we desperately run to fix the breaking or broken or falling apart thing before the next thing breaks or falls apart. (We have grand plans for this house which includes #chickens and gardens and #compost heaps, but so far the only thing we’ve done is paint the den chartreuse.)

“You must not ever stop being whimsical. And you must not, ever, give anyone else the responsibility for your life.” — Mary Oliver
This is the tomb of Bertha Honoré Potter. She was a larger-than-life Chicago maven who made a dent in the universe. I don’t know who puts this stuffed chipmunk on her grave, but when I visit Graceland Cemetery, its position changes.

When I'm really organized, I make table top beer gardens to hand out to the neighbors for summer holidays and picnics using whatever cans I happen to have on hand. I must make it a point to do more of this...

Had a lot of fun creating this portrait of my toucan all dressed up in the colors of the desert southwest. These birds are such amazing looking creatures and always a treat to photograph.

Someday, when we are all free to be who we are… ☁️☂️🌈. I used genuine amethyst pigment in my recipe for the clouds, a healing crystal 💎 it shimmers ever so slightly. Close ups to come.

Failure to create a perfect product isn’t nearly as bad as failure to show up and try.

Slowly, inexorably, the army of the dead marched on. Ever upward to those unobtainable heights, to the treetops where it was said they'd find freedom and the fulfillment of their ultimate destiny...

Water dragons
Over the last few years a large population of water dragons has established itself along the urban banks of the Brisbane River, and they're pretty confident of their territory.
In these dog walking shots, a pair of dragons, and The Triumvirate.

I have a whimsical question about #coding
If you took a new computer and used only an old computer language, could you more or less get it to do all the things a new computer can do?
Or is the old coding language limited to the capabilities of old computers?
#Dogwalking miscellany
Beaches are endlessly fascinating. There's the ever changing weather, clouds, waves and slowly changing shoreline, and then there's the constant parade of offerings thrown up by each high tide.
Together with seaweed, flotsam, jetsam, shells and so on, from time to time there are stranded jellyfish (and bluebottles, and other predators, but not in this post).
Here are several larger jellyfish encountered on dog walks. For scientific purposes, each has an ISO standard foot meter (not to be confused with an imperial foot, like Harry's, or an SI metre) included in the shot.

I wonder if the "uncanny valley" response is at work here?
I do not shovel this, which means that either faeries actually do live in my tree, or I have great neighbors.

I've been here for a bit now so maybe it's time for an #introduction.
I'm Gord - I'm a socially-conscious (read: #leftist) #introvert with a habit of enjoying good #food that I finance through my work as a #sysadmin / IT Manager. I've also been a youth group leader and #aviator.
I'm into #startrek, #SciFi, and have a thing for #whimsy. I'm a work-in-progress as a human and spend a lot of time learning how to improve. I do some of that work through the lens of #christianity, but also #therapy.
EXPLAINER:
Q: What is the theoretical opposite of @social.overlappingmagisteria.org ?
A: Non-overlapping magisteria.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-overlapping_magisteria?wprov=sfla1
By way of an #introduction… I originally used the other place to keep up to date with tech topics like #php, #mysql and #javascript. Over time I’ve drifted through #green and #socialist politics, #renewables, #homeautomation and a few other things.
Now my focus is on #ActiveTravel, #BikeBus and generally improving life for my family and kids in #worcester #worcesteruk.
I also love a bit of #whimsy.
