Anyways, here's a thing Kim & I did in 2020.

Kim wrote the song, sang & played rhythm guitar

I played lead, bass & programmed the drums plus filmed & edited the video.

I think it's a great song with a great message.

All Will Be Well.

I think the way for artists to combat ai slop in 2026 is to lean hard into showing process & WIP. No ai user is going to generate days or weeks of work in progress images & post them because they want to entirely slip the work part.

Embrace the process & let everyone see it.

I've recently been going down a bluegrass rabbit hole on YouTube. I've always enjoyed it but listened to rock mostly. But I think the thing that's really drawing me in is that it's truly human made music. Some mics (sometimes just one), vocals & acoustic instruments. Simple, pure & beautiful.

Quiet day recovery tomorrow?

Don't doom scroll.

Beauty scroll
Give yourself a present & scroll through the over 8500 posted in #ArtAdventCalendar this month.

The largest media event on Bluesky (probably)

(And if you're a new artist just joining, there's 660 artists you can get to know)
You can see over 8000 human made images (97% of them with AltText) posted by over 600 #ArtAdventCalendar participants just by clicking or long pressing on the hashtag and selecting See Posts.

I guarantee you it's better for your mental health than whatever else you're looking at on here.

And Tiny Tim, who did not die, took a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
Put his hands on his hips
And brought his knees in tight
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, took on responsibility for both sun and moon, and harmony has been maintained in Equestria for generations since.
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, moved silently down through the centuries.

Living many secret lives, struggling to reach the time of the gathering, when the few who remain will battle to the last.

Nobody knew he was amongst you.

Until now.

Kim tells me it would be rude and I'm not allowed to bring my ear buds to family Christmas dinner.

Seems unfair.

Was going to watch Galileo 7 on Netflix but they have the remastered version and I absolutely despise the CGI replacements they did for that release. I want the jank of the original and think it disrespects the talent & creativity of the time to replace it.

Did not watch. Which sucks.

It's that time again. Post your invert photos or art.

It's -20 here so our inverts are all asleep. I do have a crappy sketch of a bee I made tho :) #inverteFest

My almost 6yo grandson's favourite presents.

Geology backpack with rock hunting tools.

Rock storage cases.

Geode kit.

That's completely normal right? 😂

I mean...just look at this. It goes on and on and on.

#ArtAdventCalendar is amazing and you really should check it out.

That's it for me for #artAdventCalendar 2025.
Thanks to all 630 of you who participated. We finish with over 8500 images with 97% AltText usage. That's remarkable.

Know that you made a difference to someone in the last 24 days.

Sam approves.

Last #ArtAdventCalendar for 2025. Makapuu Beach, Oahu Hawaii. While I was painting this, a group of women were posing in front of me on the beach. After I was done, they came over and were horribly disappointed that I didn’t include them. Their thongs clashed with the color scheme.

#ArtAdventCalendar the foreshortening sucks and proportions generally are weird but the very old Disney movie Blackbeard’s Ghost is my oldest child’s favorite movie ever so I drew this for him as a present.

Popping back in to the last day of #ArtAdventCalendar to share my animation class final from this semester! There are a few tweaks I'd like to make, but this is its current form.

Oil on stretched canvas, 3’ x 4’
My Christmas offering. Light coming through the windows onto a madonna and child for our times, dreaming of a future, a path forward. May a future exist for our children, grandchildren….
