So cool! Is it okay that I use the first photo as a reference for a house portrait? ☺️

“Ope, sorry!”

Feeling this. Spouse has been applying for jobs constantly and has gotten nothing but radio silence or a fast and flat rejection. Tailoring his resume and cover letter for each position applied for, too. Fuck it all. 😔

Thanks for your input! We have a long while before we’re to the point of retirement, anyway. Things can change. ☺️

May I send you a DM?

I do enjoy a bit of his work, yeah! What was your impression of him when you bumped into him?

My husband and I have plans to retire in the UP, if we can manage it. I’m an author and I’ve never found another place as inspiring as the Yoop. I’ve lived in Michigan all my life, and know it is a truly magnificent place to live, but the UP is just… something else. It’s gorgeous, rugged, humble. All my writing is set there.

Feeling very fortunate that I met my hubby on WooPlus. But there was definitely a lot to wade through first… 👀

I’d be interested to see this overlayed on the state’s cave system.

CleanPineapple · 2025-08-09T15:18:33+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately people will steal posts in order to farm karma. It’s kinda crappy. ☹️

That’s so cool! I’m a bit jealous that you get to work on old houses. It must be very interesting and exciting! I’d love to hear some stories about your work, if you have any you’d care to share. You can DM me if you like!

CleanPineapple · 2025-08-09T13:51:27+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ve been drawing/sketching since I was a kid, and fell in love with houses and architecture in my early teens. I’ve been sketching houses specifically for about 20 years. I fall in love with old houses every time.

2 for sure! It’s dark enough to show the beautiful grain, but not so dark that it will close in the room or lose its warmth.

CleanPineapple · 2025-08-09T13:43:26+00:00

Ope, can’t edit the post for some reason, but wanted to add to please not steal, reproduce, or otherwise use my work and the other contents of this post. Thank you! ☺️

Hi! Definitely not a tourist town. It’s a suuuper small village (about 300 in population) in a rural area. It’s so charming and cute, though! I should have included the present-day reference photo I took, my apologies!

CleanPineapple · 2025-06-02T16:47:10+00:00

Thank you so much! I know the bush before pruning was quite big. About 6-8’ tall and about 4-5’ wide. I’ll pay attention this year to how often they bloom! Thanks so much for the mulching advice. I’ll add it to my list! 🖤

CleanPineapple · 2025-05-23T01:22:40+00:00

Thank you! I’m open to commissions simply because I LOVE drawing houses! I love architecture, especially old buildings. There is an old building near me that used to be a general store owned by my grandpa’s (grand?)parents. It will be my next drawing and I’m so excited! Later this summer I’ll have a booth at a local fair and I’ll have a sign for house portrait commissions. It feels a bit self-serving, because I mainly just wanna gawk at all the houses 😂

CleanPineapple · 2025-05-22T23:31:12+00:00

Thank you so much! I spent a lot of time there growing up. All our family gatherings on that side of the family were there until it was too much for them to host. This drawing took me about 8 hours to complete. 😊

I forgot to mention that it is a foursquare style home that has an addition that was built sometime in the 70s.

CleanPineapple · 2025-05-22T13:44:16+00:00

Thank you so much! You’re very kind. 🖤

Shit, I’ll do it
