Something about rusting vehicles is really speaking to me at the moment. I have a theory as to why but I need to flesh it out… Saw this one today and didn’t hesitate to grab a shot. It really pays to have a camera with you at all times. -Tom #photostr #photography #noicemag #rust #artstr

2024 was a huge year for us, we built a house and moved to a new state. Now we are rebuilding our business and networking and trying to make inroads IRL and phasing out of Instagram even though we barely used it anyway and leaning heavily into Substack & Nostr & #bitcoin. LFG 2025! Here are some photographs shot during construction. What a ride. #building #grownostr #nostr #photography #photostr #construction #massachusetts

Happy New Year to you all! We begin 2025 with our 20th art drop. Published on Substack at

Art Drop #20: Portrait of a Rabbit

Bringing the class bunny (or Ewok?) home for the holidays.

we present a portrait of our daughter’s class rabbit who has been staying with us for the holidays. If angora bunnies are your thing you should take a look. We have prints available in three different sizes, each on a different paper stock. Art Drop 20 closes on Jan 7th. #artstr #photostr #photography #nostr #rabbit #bunny #substack #artdrop #pappasbland

Last day of our pay-what-you-want pop-up studio print sale. Probably should have done this earlier but we do now accept #bitcoin via our tipping page on @strike. Visit

Can’t zap on @Damus. The zaps don’t stick. Anyone else having any issues? #nostr #damus

Grateful for this positive feedback from an art buyer who visited our pop-up pay-what-you-want studio sale. Help us end the year on a high by grabbing a print at

There was a time when our neighbor’s fence was completely intact. But for some reason it now looks like this. #artstr #photography #photostr #massachusetts #berkshires #nostr

Always nice to see our work up on the wall in someone’s home. This was a big 40 x 60” print of Tom’s ‘Yellow Wall’, printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag, now spending its days in a New York City apartment. #artstr #photostr #abstractart #yellow

The #nostr community coming good after only a short time for us here gives me hope that this is a platform where artists can really thrive. Thank you @Rustypuppy, your print is on the way! -Tom #artstr #buynostr #photostr View quoted note →
