Sticker of the Day!
This is my sticker based on my mandala drawing, "Wings"!
And the second stone is a little one I made for myself, a "worry stone" to replace my old one which I gave to a friend.
This stone features thick dollops of gloss glaze on top of the dot shapes forming a raised/textured surface that is wonderfully tactile and lovely to rub your fingers over. It turns the stones into lovely little fidget toys or meditation tools.
Anyway, I'm really fond of this one! It feels wonderful to hold and to fidget with. It uses some of my favourite colours, too.
I have a couple dot paintings to share with you today! The first one I finished up last week sometime, a rather detailed one with colours and patterns inspired by Princess Jasmine from the Disney movie "Aladdin".
I really like the blue/turquoise patterns in this one. The gold shapes on the outside were an experiment, but they're also kind of neat!
New #introduction post!
I'm Alicia and I'm a fibre artist (#dyeing #handspinning #felting #needlefelting #weaving #crochet #embroidery #upcycling #sewing) with interests in #mandala #art #psychedelicart #sacredgeometry #neurographicart and #watercolors.
My family and I run a business called @Fibre2Fabric where we dye all sorts of exotic #fibre #yarn, and #fabric.
I live in the country with my partner and our 6 #cats, 3 #dogs, #snake and #crestedgecko where I enjoy my many interests. (#gardening #plants #herbalism #fungi #music #ukulele #piano #dancing #flowart #reading #writing #tarot #poetry #haiku #cozygames and I'm getting more into #opensource / #linux)
When I say flow art, I mean spinning props like #hulahoop #leviwand #puppyhammer #poi #staff #silkfans #firefans etc.
I love #languagelearning. I studied #German and #Spanish as a kid, took #Japanese in uni, and I'm currently studying #ASL #Cree #Tokipona #Spanish and #Chinese. I also dabble in #French and #Latin sometimes and I'm learning #Greggshorthand to write faster. Cree is my favourite language and Spanish is my second.
I've been cursed since childhood with that lovely trifecta of #heds #pots and #mcas. Healing slowly but surely.
Hope I get to meet even more cool people the algorithms would normally drown out on other social media sites. I love it here!
Slowly playing around with simple celtic knots. A triquetra, or Trinity Knot, for this one. I'll put some WIP pics in the replies for anyone interested.
Another one I'm pretty pleased with. :) This one was given to our good friend @neilk.
I wanted to release the project files of my animations for a long time. Now you can play around with it, too!

With a short tutorial in the following posts.
I was playing around with sketching petal shapes on a grid, and thought this looked a lot like an echeveria or other kind of succulent, so I ran with it. :D
Really pleased with this one!
The whole design and colours just fill me with joy.
melting snow + mandala filter + color mixer
A quick post and run… a couple of dot painted stones I made in the last week. The first one was just a free-handed geometric pattern I drew on the initial grid, and the second features pastel colours chosen by a friend of mine. The pattern for that one wasn't planned or anything, it just came out as I went.
(I playfully call the design in the second one "Pastel Butt-Stuff". X) I'm such a child, haha. )
One more little one… a small dot painting that I hope to turn into a fridge magnet (I've been waiting on craft magnets to arrive for weeks now ).
This was a fun one! Love the way the pattern turned out, and the colours! I'll have to try this design again someday…
(I made a silly error when glossing it that resulted in some surface imperfections, but they're not very noticeable, thankfully! And I learned what to avoid for next time. )
#KaleidoSaturday part 3
I couldn't decide, which to choose. So I took them all.
(The last one is a pretty powerful mandala, I realized.)
#KaleidoSaturday part2
Some colors to make your day more beautiful!
A very personal #KaleidoSaturday today.
The photo was taken from the site, we buried my uncle today. Rest in peace.
