@TimothyImholt @SaintRPh If they released a reasonably priced remake of this, I’d totally buy it for my husband & son’s Christmas

Back in college, to help improve my illustration skills, I drew a webcomic based on my grumpy French Lop rabbit named Cookie. This is my favorite holiday one-shot I drew.

I stopped at a food truck I regularly order from. My husband likes refried beans added into his soft tacos. The lady cooking said “Ah, you have the husband who likes his frijoles!” Apparently they remember me, lol.

Why is it that disposable napkins get less functional the ‘fancier’ they get? Big pack of Great Value napkins work great, but a pack of fancy party napkins at twice the price can’t absorb anything.

@WarpCordova I forgot to comment earlier, but my library ordered this book and I cannot wait to get it into our system here. I have quite a few scifi/fantasy/horror fans who use our tiny Salem WV branch and I have to keep them supplied.

@TimothyImholt Back when I was in college, I went to the mall with friends including this new guy who had just joined our geek club. I saw a new book I wanted but alas no money, and he immediately offered to buy it for me. 18 years later we’re married with a kid and overloaded bookshelves.

@FreedomFeens They are quite beautiful. I’m very tempted to take you up on them, as my house is in the middle of town so away from any deer or cows, but these would look really pretty along the side of my house, possibly help suppress the invasive vines I’ve been battling.

@PushinUpRoses If I had used linear inch formula it’d be (8+10)x5=90, round up to $100. Nowadays my rate is much higher, which makes my older customers happy because it means their $100 painting they bought off me back in 2001 are worth much much more today.

@PushinUpRoses Example: When I was baby beginner artist I did mostly smaller 8x10 paintings. Set my rate at $1/sq inch and sold them for $100 (8x10x1=80, round up to 100). This doesn’t include framing. Most customers do their own framing but if I do it for them I add frame price x 2.

Watercolor sketch I made using the travel watercolor set I have affectionately dubbed “Swiss Army Palette”. $12 purchase from Walmart. Student grade so isn’t perfect, but it gets enough points from portability and novelty to be a recommendation for travel art.

@cedarlili Love it, they look so fluffy. I bought a student grade palette from Walmart that has a weird swiss-army-knife type design that is very portable. I’m testing it out to see if it’s a viable candidate for a travel set.
