Pretty sure I'm having my first real encounter talking to an AI customer service rep and it's seriously creeping me the fuck out whenever it "laughs" or responds to my filing a claim for a cracked windshield with absurd amounts of sympathy and compassion.

Pre-orders for the dreamy Point Reyes Myriorama game that I illustrated for @cameowood.com are still open!
We saw the samples from the manufacturer and they looked perfect, I can't wait to see it in person.

What if the Point Reyes headlands, flora, and fauna were a shuffleable story? I created a myriorama deck with artist Carrie Alyson of Aspenhearted—fog, elk, tides, and trails that recombine into endless scenes. Preorder for early 2026: www.pointreyesmyriorama.com
The Point Reyes Myriorama | 24-Card Illustrated Deck
Explore Point Reyes through 24 illustrated cards. Every edge lines up seamlessly to create infinite panoramic landscapes. Includes guidebook.

I scanned the sketch, tinted it to sepia tones in photoshop, printed it out on watercolor paper at a slightly larger size (12x16), and got the initial washes of color down. I did color tests in photoshop so I knew how to approach the tones. This is about an hour's worth of painting so far, I think?

I’m sorry if I ever sound like I’m looking for pity.
I’m just in pain all the time. It’s exhausting and isolating, and lately it feels like it’s taking away everything I have been living for.
It’s hard to keep it inside all of the time.
Sometimes I need to scream into the void.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

The purpose of blaming any and every tragedy on trans people is convincing each other "wouldn't life be so much better if we just got rid of all the trans people"
There's no evidence that Rob and Michele Reiner's son Nick is undergoing a gender transition, despite claims circulating on social media. Here's how the baseless rumor spread. 👇

Looking for an *L.A. based* artist who (against all odds) has time for a poster gig before the end of the year.
It's for a science + art event.
We can offer $500 for the gig.
Dreadfully sorry about the timeline. Link a portfolio if you're interested, I'll delete this post when we found someone.
