  1. This closeup of a brilliant #Udupi #krishna. The warm glow is from "aarathi" (a plate of lit ghee-soaked wicks held in front of the idol) and that light reflects off the #pearls. 🦪 🌟

    (not my picture, but I straightened and cropped it)

    A different but full view with details:

  7. Hildy found a home! I painted her in ‘19, and she’s almost sold several times since then. Here she is in a private collection in Maryland: “Hildegarde, In Pearl Strand”. Yay! 1: stretched oval canvas, 2: 36” genuine rice pearl necklace with sterling lobster claw, 3: ceramic vase resurfaced, painted, with natural peach moonstone eyes.

  8. Made a few new #pocketmirror. Will be for sale at the #DutchComicCon. It is #handmade/ #handecorated and took quite some time, so the price will reflect that. (15)

    I won't be saving it for anyone, unless it is also paid up front. First come, first serve. I have too much experience with people calling dibs and then not coming to pick it up.
