My great- nephew is autistic and his mom has decided to homeschool him. I studied art in college and I think the very best thing I’ve done with that education is have the honor of being on Hunters team as his Art Teacher. This child is unique and precious. #autism #art #homeschool #teachingmoments #love https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/23c3f1e8-1712968678125.jpeg

Foraging for “Purple Head Dead Nettle”
This “weed” has anti inflammatory properties as well as anti fungal and anti bacterial. The fresh leaves can be used to cover a wound and the tea is great for cold and flu season. It’s known to warm the body. Excellent for chills and a general body tonic.

Not everyone is having a “MerryChristmas” for many reasons and to you my brothers.and sisters it is OK’. It’s ok to not feel jolly. It’s ok to feel left out and forgotten and for those of us who weren’t able to have our own children know that it’s extra hard. If you know ppl in that position please share please. Share the holidays with them.
Trust me. I know.
#handmadecard for my niece. She will be completely shocked. I love surprising ppl with my #cards sad art. I was thinking, maybe one day I should print some or have them printed. I’m not sure and we could design the card to the clients liking completely customized. I think it would be a great experience for everyone! #Krisartchallenge https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/49733e01-1703040152908.jpeg
Here’s a piece of #art I made in 2015. It’s part of a two piece color and light bending exercise.

Keep going. Our creativity is a huge part of who we are. I stopped creating (I make jewelry as well) and became very depressed. Draw, paint, do whatever it takes. Art can be made with anything.
Blessed Be my friend!
Will get back to my regular drawing content after the holidays. Meanwhile Hi! I’m the artist behind the art, #Kristina. Thank you for following #krisartchallenge #happyholidays #art #selfie https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/94c8040a-1702410345566.jpeg
Thank you I love doing this form of cartooning called Kawaii . I think it may be Japanese for cute. I’m not sure but that and there’s another form I enjoy it called Zentangle and that’s really fun and you can do some really beautiful things with it. It’s comprised mostly of repeating patterns and repeating patterns are something that are literally repeating patterns in my art. 🎨🖌️
I’m not sure if that’s what it’s called. It didn’t have a tag on it but I like that so let’s call it a Snuggie name e. It did have a strain on it and it was called “death star”. A very very good friend sent it to me from Michigan.
Continuing with my #krisartchallenge I present “Wednesday”. It’s interesting to see the changes as I flow. I’m excited to see where this goes.
This time I’ll add the picture. Lol. #draw #sketch #art #challenge #nostar https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/c9d5aea8-1700166835171.jpeg
This is going to be a tough week. Lots going on, but I’m gonna try and not miss a day because that’s my whole challenge to at least put pencil to paper even if it’s just to write out the name of the day. #krisartchallange #draweveryday #draw #sketch #Sketchbookchallenge https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/4e35e397-1700094041647.jpeg
Y’all look a very good special friend of mine sent me this and it was so unexpected and it brought me so much joy. I just got to show it off with my #ZBDInternetfamily
His lil tag says strain: Death Star. that’s just so cute.  https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/50ceeb75-1699746416840.jpeg
Continuing my #challenge I was telling trey that I don’t practice my art anymore was because I m pretty sure I suck at it. I suck at realism (possibly because I hate reality) and “I can’t think of anything to make/draw). So within this challenge I’m “facin’ my fears”! So what if I suck. So what if I totally love drawing the little kawaii characters.

Hi!!!!! Wow. Thank you. I’ll check out the prompts. But lately I’ve been drawing lil kawaii figures with cute lil smiles. One day I’m thinking doing a side by side of one cute and one evil. 😂. I also love calligraphy. I dunno where this will go. I’m just doing what I call stream of consciousness, sketching. It’s fun. You should try it. Thank you again for the compliments and also thank you for following my hashtag.

I’ve started challenging myself to draw every day. Something. Anything. Even if it’s just the day of the week it’s something. I miss the #artist in me. Silly #sketch of a #christmastree havin’ a panic attack. 😂. Love to my #zbdfriendsandfamily https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/13bd63e7-1699582050992.jpeg
I keep making them them but they seriously disappearing! I call them my “roach candy” lol (ok. I kno. But have you ever seen a date? They look like roaches… plus the tooth text that I used to hold them together when I dip them in chocolate kind a looks like legs I gotta say). But totally the name is a work in progress. Heck, so is the candy it turns out different every time sometimes I use cashews and raisins. It’s funny I bought the stuff to make some granola type bars, but it appears that some of the ingredients may be disappeared before I get to it like I’ve been going through bananas I never ate bananas like this before but different is sunflower, kernel butter and OMG!!!! 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
WOW. What an amazing story. And I do love my bayou country life. It’s kinda soggy right now but that the norm in Louisiana. We are starting a tiny farm. We have 5 hens a garden and 2 cats. 🐓🌱🐈🐈⬛⚜️
Well I had saved up a nice little quantity of bitcoin, but my husband and I have been going through some challenging times and I had to cash them out for gas money one day so you know it is what it is, not what it was. I just keep playing my little bitcoin solitaire, bitcoinminer, and other games. PLUS getting zapps by great, kind and awesome people 😉😘.
I just feel confident that the crypto market will succeed. I have other coins on other platforms. Sadly, I had to sell all of my bitcoin and Ethereum during this little financial hardship but hey, I’m making gains that’s all that matters right?
Many Blessings and Much Love!!!! https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/a1e7c668-1698364306851.jpeg
Well spotted! I live out in the country and do a lot of foraging. Many edible and medicinal plants whose healing abilities have been “memory holed” in light of a more controlled population. All we need is around us. It’s easier just to grocery and dr. Personally, I think there should be a balance between western and other types of treating illness and managing health. That’s just my opinion. Blessed Be.
Money may not buy happiness but it sure makes a darn good substitute.
