An abstract watercolour painting. The painting is split diagonally by a jagged white line. The top half is a a granulating, textured indigo blue. The bottom half is a mottled and textured brown, light in some places and darker in others. It makes me think of shorelines, trees, and mountains.

An abstract watercolour collage. On a background splattered with bright magenta and sparkling blue-grey paint sit two stacks of three rectangular slices. The top stack is aligned with the right side of the painting and has deep magenta slices top and bottom with a sparkling bluish-pink slice in the middle. The bottom stack is aligned to the left side of the painting and has the inverse colours. The painting makes me think of fancy macarons or birthday cakes.

The astronaut in the rocket's window is a tiny little nod to @amyraehill.bsky.social 's absolutely stunning Astronaut Vessels series of ceramics. If you dig space and/or ceramics, you should check them out and give her a follow here! amyraehill.com/astronautves...
A watercolour collage painting of a deep red rocket blasting off a planet into a sparkling orange and grey sky towards two large planets that hang in the sky.

It has a light oval inscribed on its surface, and horizontal lines near the top and bottom. They are sitting on a brown surface under a deep blue sky dotted with sparkling pale blue star-like spots.
