Does anyone know of any other examples of where a video synchs perfectly to other audio, like the This Is America video clip set to Call Me Maybe?

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 6 - We are both fans of sunbeams. I couldn't re-create this if I tried.

Photo of my black cat laying quasi-loaf-like in a patch of sun on the carpeted floor of a bedroom. Behind her is the window, with sun shining in, casting rays and sun flare in all directions over the cat's head.

One more--this one almost no one knows--"The Lost Tribes Of Eden" by Shane McCrae:
The Lost Tribes of Eden __________________ They knew they'd be forgotten. Knew the star was Eve, and Adam was the sun. They knew not to complain. They knew things as they were would never be the same as they are now. They knew us, knowing that. They knew the fields outside the garden were alive and growing. They knew to be afraid. They knew God had lied about the tree. They knew the use of knowing. They knew the angels knew the will of God. They knew the angels whispered late at night. They knew about the tree. They knew the apple wept in their mouths, when eaten. Good or bad they knew it didn't matter what they ate-- they knew it and it hurt them into people. --Shane McCrae

Right. I hardly ever ask for anything, but this is the year I say 'what the hell' and go for it. On all the social platforms I have ever been on, I've never broken a few hundred followers and you know what? I think my artwork is as good as accounts with thousands. I'm wishing for 1k by xmas 😂

Latest Sci-fi cover illustration made for Neon Hemlock.
Classic cyberpunk, I would say ^^
A night shot in a large futuristic city, filled with giant skyscrapers. A character is on the roof of a building, wearing a strange, sophisticated, armor suit. He also wears a complete helmet with multiple sensors, and has a katana in the back.

6 December 1942 | Grigol Peradze, a cleric of the Georgian Orthodox Church, an archimandrite, perished in #Auschwitz.

Since 1933, he lectured at the College of Orthodox Theology at Warsaw University. The Germans arrested him on 5 May 1942, and, in November, deported him to Auschwitz.
A black-and-white historical portrait of a man seated on a chair, dressed in clerical robes with a large cross pendant hanging from his neck. His hands are clasped in front of him, and he gazes directly at the camera with a calm and contemplative expression.

Small quick painting I did today to study the values of snow before attempting a more detailed painting later (probably next year)

A small painting of a snow covered street. There are parked cars in the left and lots of trees on the right. There are visible tire tracks that have melted lines of snow going towards the vanishing point.

The most beautiful thing I’ve seen this week. I was standing on the edge of a large reservoir at night when this huge, elegant, graceful Gold-ringed cat snake came gliding out of the darkness

Day five of #ArtAdventCalendar.

Here’s a stone I painted a reeeeeally long time ago.
On a light grey pebble is a painting of a rising full moon with a silhouetted hare in front of it. The colours are monochrome, and there are lots of stars in the sky. There are silhouetted trees of either side of the hare.

Day 5, #artadventcalendar This is Prairie Storm from 2025. Can you see the cat in the cloud? It was a happy accident in this small (12” x 12”) acrylic painting.
