Rogers recently purchased our local wired cable/internet provider. Service has shit the bed as expected. Signal drops regularly where it was very consistent before. Cell service has also deteriorated to the point that I can see the cell tower from my house but have no signal now.

We were happy with our little provider now we have to find another. Luckily there are a few left serving our rural community.

Fuck the telcos and the government's that consistently keep them safe from competition.

    It's been set aside for a bit for summer. We grow a lot of our own food so summer is for gardens and animals. I'll post more soon. I have another couple of pieces half completed but were interrupted by planting season. Thank you for following along.

    Welcome back to jellies!

    A wonderful Lemmy user ordered this custom jellyfish several months ago. It's been a long time coming and he has been very gracious about it all which I am very thankful for.

    It's made from hand pounded, recycled copper and local beach finds. It takes me about 40-50 hours in total to make one. This one is about 23 x 23 x 36 cm or 9 x 9 x 14 inches. They have been getting larger each go round as the originals were made for a 4" x 5" art show and sale. The next 3 will be even larger and are in process right now.

    You can check out my profile for other copper artistic creations including the original 3 jellies I created in December/January for an art show and other fun stuff I like to create.

    Found this hanging in the little kitchen thing at my kids Jiu Jitsu gym today (boxing, Jiu Jitsu and muay thai). It used to be a community center/church hall until recently. While I was making lunch for a seminar I spotted this gem and brought it home.

    I Made it better with some gloves and belts. Now I will rehang it and see who notices.

    Welcome to jellies!

    Jellies #1,2 and 3 were pieces I made for a local art show. They are constructed of reclaim hand pounded copper and local beach wood and stones.

    All sold

    Commissioned custom jellies available on order.

    I should also add I am happy to arrange barter for goods or services as opposed to cash for art pieces.

    I finally got a Lemmy sign in for just art stuff. You can contact me here for any inquiries about purchases or custom work. I've been transitioning from American social media and making new fedi accounts and spreading them about. I enjoy sharing my work here and Is m just looking for a new way to reach people with my artistic endeavors.
