My first gallery show!! This summer I was part of an art festival, one of the galleries hosting it invited me to be a visiting artist!
I am so unbelievably proud of myself. If you’d like to see them in person (and some incredible work from other artists) I’m at the Fox Clark gallery in Indiana PA
A smiling white woman with long brown hair, wearing jeans and a black long sleeve shirt standing in front of a brick wall. At the top of the wall is a sign saying “Visiting Artist”. On the wall there are 8 brightly colored paintings

I am actively annoyed by how gorgeous your sketchbook is! And clean!

#3157 A helpful tutorial
A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross. The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

It took me a long time to get passed the “well I don’t really know much about it so I don’t feel strongly” mental barrier I had around Israel. Which is weird, not knowing much about things has never once stopped me from feeling strongly about them

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy-
The meme depicts a cow standing in front of a hallway with a split down the center. The title is “the illusion of free choice”. One side says “2016 Republican Candidate” the other says “2016 Democratic candidate” at the end of the hallway the divider is gone, leading to the inevitable destination of “voting for someone who have head to Bill Clinton”

A Muslim Democratic Socialist who unequivocally supports trans rights just won a landslide in NYC, despite establishment Dems spending millions of dollars trying to tank his campaign

Maybe the establishment Dem losing streak is a skill issue idk

Day 3 Nicotine free. The withdrawal is kicking my ass. On the up side, the manic productivity has been great for getting my house cleaned up

If you see this, post your bird art
#art #bird
A painting of a vulture. The background is bright green. All of the colors are highly saturated with the wings pulling purple to gold. The head is highly detailed and the vulture is staring straight out. The style is brushy

Even with AI he can’t make a woman say she loves him sincerely. But when she looks at her vampire boyfriend that smile hits her eyes. Sorry Elon

Snap is one of the most effective social programs we have. My family was on it when my son was little (I had to quit work bc I made less than the cost of daycare) and without snap and wic I don’t know where we’d be now

I’m sure this is silly but I am SO impressed with your ability to draw black birds. I’ve been trying to paint crows for ages and they always turn out kind of a crow shaped black blur

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:

"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."

No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

People probably wouldn't celebrate the deaths of horrible people if they had been held to account for their many many many crimes while they were alive.

Happy Jeff Goldblum day!
Why is it Jeff Goldblum day? Because I’m posting a painting of Jeff Goldblum I just finished!
(Oil on 8x10 board)
@bsky.art #oilpainting #jeffgoldblum #thefly #portrait #artist
An oil painting of actor Jeff Goldblum from the 80s. His stare is intense, straight into the viewer’s soul. He’s back lit, creating a halo glow in his curly hair. His chest and shoulder are bare and his skin has a warm glow. The colors are highly saturated and the brush strokes are visible.

I think they’re against anything other than squatting in the fields to birth a baby. Because, you know, medical interventions save mothers lives

lol. I am absolutely not surprised that the mommy blog space has slid hard into MAGA. I spent years trying to fit into that space and it was awful.
