Slowly making progress on this 13' x 16.5' stained glass mural.
I chop up stained glass and glue it to things. If you want to see it: jkmosaic.com. I'm not here to sell my work, but to follow journalists, comedians, artists, and brainiacs.

Happy Juneteenth!
Yes!

There were acres of crowds. The local paper said "over 100." š§
I don't think I've ever seen so many people at the Olympia capital. The whole campus was crowded, and all along Capital Way, and traffic was honking in support.
Community Mosaic event next weekend in Lakewood, WA!
June 6 & 7 in Lakewood, WA, help make a public art mosaic celebrating and honoring the Nisqually prairie:
Totes ma goats, interrupting the bad news.
Terrifying.
Adios, Mexico! Hasta luego!
Last night and this morning in Taxco, MX.
One of a zillion pics I took of the moon tonight in Tepoztlan.
America, you f**ked up! She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored herābecause it was never really about the economy. Now folks are scared, strugglingāand weāre cooked.
Some of the pre-grouted mosaic projects by students, which will go into mortar this afternoon:
My students did some fantastic work today!
Am I ready to teach? It has been a minute. Some supplies were delivered, but no one knows where they are. I haven't been able to print templates and handouts. But I think it's going to be good anyway.
ššš It's official! Wisconsin voters have elected Susan Crawford to be the next Supreme Court Justice! Voters rejected Brad Schimel and Elon Musksās attempts to buy another election and use the Wisconsin Supreme Court to attack our freedoms.
If youāre in Wisconsin, vote today for Susan Crawford. There are also two special elections in Floridaās 1st and 6th districts. Letās show Elon our country isnāt for sale.
The first frame is a demo for my Light & Shadow in Mosaic workshop. I'll be teaching this at the Glass Craft and Bead Expo this week in Las Vegas. I've also been posting my notes and process on Patreon for $10+ subscribers.

I'm not a graphic designer and I think someone else could make this better.
I don't know what #makersmARTch is exactly, but I've enjoyed looking at so much creativity in my feed, so I'll play too.
Outstanding!
Last week, I visited a home where one of my glass-on-glass windows is hung. I love seeing my artwork in its natural habitat.
Meanwhile, I just finished tiling this sink in a public restroom. The walls are stained glass mosaic (also done by me.)
This is horrific and unlawful.
Town Hall tonight with my rep, Emily Randall. It was a full house with more behind me and on the sides. I am shy and it's hard for me to go alone to events like this, but I'm glad I did.

Today wasnāt a meetingāit was an Oval Office ambush, and it was planned. Zelenskyy has thanked the U.S. and its president dozens of times. Everyone knows thatāincluding Trump. But gratitude was never what he wanted; he wanted a spectacle. āThis is going to be great televisionā - Donald Trump
I didn't think I was capable of feeling any more shame for what America has become. I was wrong.

Mine have a large run. The swallows nest inside in the spring, but that's about it. And swallows aren't carriers.
Also true in Seattle. To this day, some of my favorite people are trans.
There's an awkward autocorrect in the original post, but I'm unable to fix it. Boo.
We have 6 chickens (one is a rooster.) We spend $15/mosaic on feed. They produce more eggs than we use. And they have good lives with lots of space to roam. Highly recommended.
I know, things are insane and I feel conflicted about being excited about something, but I'm now booked solid with commissions through spring 2026. I have no idea what the future holds, but I have meaningful work and that helps me stay upright, and to give back to my community.
February in Western Washington State.
I came here looking for the exact same clarification. People in my circles are very confused. Newsweek printed a list with the 2:30 time for #Olympia.

It's 14 acres nestled in the Black Hills near Olympia, WA. This area is beautiful. Hiking, kayaking, fishing, all available nearby. We are an easy drive to the ocean, Hoh Rainforest, Mt. Rainier, Puget Sound. Halfway between Seattle and Portland.

All the more important that we celebrate Black History Month, since the Trump administration is trying to erase it.
The MYTH: DEI involves elevating people into positions of employment that their skills and qualifications do not merit. The TRUTH: DEI involves ensuring that people with the appropriate skills and qualifications are not excluded from employment because of the prejudices of an employer.

If anyone out there is looking to move to Washington State, I just found out that the amazing property across from me will go up for sale on the 1st. It's 14 acres that could be a great farm or nursery, nestled in the Black Hills, surrounded by state forest.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

It's a crispy morning here in Western Washington.
āTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.ā Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943
I'll order it from my local bookstore. I'm going through this myself. It's surreal and tragic.

This is quite incredible. The US Justice Dept, under Trump, is defending its birthright citizenship Order by arguing that immigrant children covered by the Order cannot be citizens because... the children of Native Americans aren't US citizens.

Trump just rescinded an Executive Order issued by President Biden to lower prescription drug costs for people in Medicare and Medicaid.
Nat and Thelma Jackson have dedicated their lives to education, equity, and community. This stained glass mosaic hangs in the lobby of the Lacey Community Center, Lacey, WA.

Good advice:
I happened on this smalti mosaic in a pool in Cuernavaca by Diego Rivera in 2022. Sadly, it has since been destroyed.
This is the GOPās long con on full display.
It was frosty this morning in SW Washington.
