A set of four circular, one-inch magnets. They're primarily shades of blue with swirls of silver, green, yellow and shades of purple. They were made using glass cabochons that have been dipped in wet fluid art (a type of abstract painting).
It's always a good feeling when I get to send something I've made to its new home. Yesterday, this set of fluid art magnets began their journey to California! Shout-out to another wonderful customer for shopping small 🤗.

Two freshly bloomed fluid art ornaments in shades of purple and orange on a black pillow/base. The cell activators are black over white, and the ornaments are 4", round, and flat.
Halloween/spooky season-themed fluid art ornaments 👀? Yes, please 🙌!!

I spent yesterday evening testing out a tweaked version of my bloom recipe. It was a bust, but at least I know my poinsettia-inspired, holiday palette looks a'ight 😜.

Please enjoy a glimpse of what was on the finishing table yesterday 😁. Go figure, the wind picked up so I had to bring them inside before I was able to add another coat of gloss spray 🤧.

Still Life with Blue Face. 2024. Oil on canvas. 30x25"
This is an old painting that I reworked. I cropped the top to show less of the wall piece. It was interesting to see how my technique has changed over time.

Title inspired by a quote from Antonio Gramsci, Itialian philosopher
Now is the Time of Monsters. 2022. Oil on canvas. 36x24"
This began as a humorous look at the childhood fear of the monster in the closet. Because I painted it during lockdown it became a little darker.

A top view of my paint spinner: there is a circular wooden board with four popsicle sticks taped to it.

Several containers of paint ready to be used for Shelee bloom and bloom swipe fluid art pours. They're stacked on top of my canvas spinner. The larger container in the back is filled with dark orange house paint, the gold and brown cell activators are on the left, and the other colors are shades of white, green, yellow, and pink.

I really do love a freshly wrapped paint spinner lol. It's not perfect, but it'll keep the paint where it's supposed to 😜!
Also, bonus pics of upcoming color palette ideas 😁🙌.

Throwback to one of my first fluid art dips circa 2022: I named it Desert Brush because it reminds me of plants native to my region 😊.
