Went to visit Jenny Saville’s show at the national portrait gallery in London a couple of months ago. I started my senior academic/ art journey knowing she attended GSA and it’s funny to see I have permanently moved to the UK now.

Center: A blue star burns in a red sky,cold fire.
Right: Violent winds cradle reaching hands. Beautiful, bitter, and aching with the quiet when heat is too costly to summon.

Nishimi's layouts for the first #Tekkonkinkreet image boards—you can tell this was very early in the process because we're using #Animatrix L/O paper with its ANIMA label (Animatrix having been our only other 'scope project)

My first Research Symposium @glasgowschoolofart.bsky.social . I learned so much about how to further and expand my process when talking about my practice. Everyone presenting was passionate and that’s all I can ever ask for. Till next time!

Take care of your hands, younger artists. Do your stretches and exercises and take breaks.

It’s cold in the UK.Here’s something I do in order to keep warm that doesn’t involve turning on my heater.
1. Get a bucket/ big bowl
2. Full it with boiling water
3. Wait till it doesn’t burn
4. Full it with Epsom salts or just nicely scented body wash
5. Dip your feet in the bucket and enjoy

I've been making these felt cats and little scenes to put them in this year. Mostly been posting it on my Instagram (hockenbear). Trying to do more on here but still getting back into posting. I quit Twitter quite awhile ago cause I hated it so trying to dip back into something like it is weird.
