It's time for February's Bird Whisperers! This month's bird is the Saw-Whet Owl, and it is one of the smallest owl species native to North America. To add a nice, mythical feel (and a nod at February's birthstone), I wanted to paint this little one in an orb ringed with gold and adorned with amethyst. The original is 8x8" acrylic on Canson cold press watercolor paper, and is for sale for $100 USD + s&h. There will also be 8x8" limited run of 10, hand embellished prints for $25 USD + s&h. Link in my profile.⠀ ⠀ #birdwhisperer #birdwhispererproject #artbyshannoneagle #shannoneagleart #tinyworksofart #owl #sawwhetowl #amethyst #february #gold #acrylic #painting #audubon #fauna #nature #art (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuZr6Rnlt0T/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1exhrl3agkmoi

Tonight’s Super Snow Moon (or Hunger Moon) is upon us. It’s the last embrace of winter before the flowering of spring Hunger Moon BY JANE COOPER The last full moon of February stalks the fields; barbed wire casts a shadow. Rising slowly, a beam moved toward the west stealthily changing position until now, in the small hours, across the snow it advances on my pillow to wake me, not rudely like the sun but with the cocked gun of silence. I am alone in a vast room where a vain woman once slept. The moon, in pale buckskins, crouches on guard beside her bed. Slowly the light wanes, the snow will melt and all the fences thrum in the spring breeze but not until that sleeper, trapped in my body, turns and turns. #artbyshannoneagle #shannoneagleart #tinyworksofart #snowmoon #snow #moon #hungermoon #fullmoon #supermoon #super #hunger #full #winter #february #art #painting #acrylicpainting #poem #poetry #janecooper https://www.instagram.com/p/BuEYK85lM8q/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rx4cvucncxbb

Started a thing in honor of the super blood wolf moon. Hope everyone with clear skies can see it. I think it’s going to be too cloudy tonight for us here in WA. . . . . . #tinyworksofart #shannoneagleart #artbyshannoneagle #wolf #blood #moon #fullmoon #bloodmoon #wolfmoon #supermoon #superbloodmoon #anthropomorphic #anthropomorphism #werewolf #ladywolf (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs4SUsQBfHz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12dbjkab1r8em

Is struggle is an important one to overcome.

Look, we’re not in the habit of reposting other people’s material here on DearAD, but there’s SO many questions in the queue about Jealousy, Comparing Ourselves to Others, Felling Like We’re Behind, etc. that this post answers so well that you should all go read it. Enjoy!

Magic mushrooms! I’ve found mushrooms to be an interesting plant. Did you know they’re actually a good source of vitamin D?
