nyx mirMy #artAdventCalendar is running a bit late and out of sorts as to be expected so I thought I’d make it up by starting off with a twofer:
Day 1 - Kamakura Lens Flares
#artAdventCalendar Day 3: Venus Anadyomene
from one of my favorite shoots with one of my favorite photo collaborators, fellow CalArtian Leah. I'll probably share more at least couple more from this 
#artAdventCalendar Day 5
Ghost Girl Goes to the Beach

Silhouette on Dyes Inlet
Or
My Great Grandma and My Grandma and My Sister
#artAdventCalendar Day 7
(still catching up #spoonie )
This started as a vibes-based plein air, that kept lacking that certain something until I came home and a few months later, boldly went for a contrasting sunset instead of daylight.

One of the few things I miss deeply about living in LA is proximity to my friends to collaborate with.
Where things like this could really be a whim “Hey T, I had an idea for a set! Bring some black and gold costume options... Let’s play.”

Dawn
While working in Tokyo for 9 months, I had a stint of night shift. On my days off, not wanting up upset my sleep schedule, I would go for short night & dawn walks with my cane.
This was one of the most beautiful, even before I had my fun with the colors.

Brief intermission: Have a blanket & seat warmer, northern hemi; soft breeze & cool bevvy, southern hemi.
If you've been enjoying this thread, *and you can comfortably spare it*, maybe buy me a ko-fi?
The last month has been a lot more expensive than expected since I broke my left foot. On top of the additional medical bills for ortho/so many x-rays/medical devices, I've needed a wee bit more therapy (In December 2015 I had the trauma to my lower left extremity that started this whole thing, happy anniversary!), plus food deliveries when I'm home alone/less mobile.
Anything is a huge help, thank you so much:

Since it’s a spooky number day in the *darkest* month of the year, I thought I’d mix things up briefly…

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 14
Let’s bring some light into this darkest month, shall we? Here’s my first neon sculpture.
Day 17 - Pop Art
I'm falling behind again, and would love some #alt4me help with these please. Thank you thank you!!
Day 20
Does anyone else remember when one of Yayoi Kusama’s pumpkins was swept into the sea during a typhoon?
It felt like such a metaphor to me for the last (now) decade. Oh to be a storm & sea tossed pumpkin! I had a postcard of that exact pumpkin, and knew what I had to do.
May the seas & typhoons be gentle with you, pump-kin.
Day 21 - matcha bowl
I’ve only dabbled in ceramics but I’m thankful for the time I got to spend with it.
I hope to be able to return when I’m healthier enough to have a craft which involves time & clean up a bit more strictly.
Day 24
Icarus
Lighting interactive sculpture which made reflections like soft upward downy feathers, or diagonally striking feather shafts / rachis.
