Clover liked her first pup cup.
My first post in this here bluesky is from a new acquisition at RareUva (special Collections @Virginia. A Linocut print from “Covid Year” by book artist Alice Austin who focused on seasonal plants from her garden as inspiration.

Wish she’d eat that poison Ivy!
She’s appears to be a champion sulker.
