A Pike jumped out of the water likely chasing prey and got stuck in a branch and died. Now, a bird has made a nest in its mouth. One of the most interesting things I've seen.

Memorial for a Mouse.

I found it around ranch today when it was still alive and looked out for it until the cats left it alone. I went to check on my horse for a few minutes and when I came back a guy from here stepped on it and killed it. It wasn’t bothering anybody. I brought it back out to the field. Rest easy, little guy.

A few minutes ago, a guided airbomb fell here. I hope nobody was killed.

Human blood painting, Elizabeth Báthory, artist Sophie Mae Vee

Another blood painting I completed this week of Elizabeth Báthory, the “Blood Countess” of Hungary during the 16th and 17th century. Elizabeth was known for harvesting the blood of her servants to bathe in hopes of attaining immortal beauty. Though it is largely speculated she was the victim of nothing more than rumors in hopes to dethrone her position of power. 16x20” painting, all done in my own blood which was collected via venipuncture.
