It's Trans Awareness Week this week. I won't bomba It's Trans Awareness Week this week. I won't bombard you with facts about mental health, suicide rates, medical waiting times, hate crimes, prejudice, bureaucracy etc. I do that quite often... So if you're not very 'trans aware' maybe you should be... Trans people have a pretty rough ride, so knowing that others are supportive & aware of these issues is such a massive help. πŸ’™πŸ’—πŸ€πŸ’—πŸ’™ (319/365) #photoadaychallenge #transgender #transgenderawareness #diversity

So, after a 15 year break, it was time to revisit my beloved oil paints πŸ’— This was done using Daler Rowney water based oils. I'd never used water based oils before. I'd also frowned upon them a wee bit, but these were surprising nice to use πŸ™‚ http://www.stephcoley.com http://www.facebook.com/StephanieSianColeyFineArtist Comments, likes, shares & subscribers are always welcomed πŸ’— ______ Music: Someday Musician: Alexander Delarge URL: https://icons8.com/music
