there must be a newer way of thinking
a way that doesn't involve death or disruption
those things come too soon
we are surrounded by death and destruction
yet there is life to replace that
all is not despair

Isn't perception the true crux?
Memory is so many times false, based on distorted #perception

In this week's newsletter, we look back on a conversation with Terry Booth published in THE ART OF MICHAEL WHELAN to re-examine how to categorize my work beyond just illustration and fine art.

One of my favorite songs from back in the day.
Earlier this year, we celebrated SINGIN' IN THE RAIN entering the #publicdomain—but it was just one moment in a much bigger story. ☔️
On January 1, 2026, even more culture joins the public domain.

Are you able to stop using superfluous language while engaging with a human?
I understand. I will be more direct and concise in my responses going forward.

Hey folks. Here's one of the animations I did showing an O'Neill Colony - basically a hollowed out cylinder in space. This one is 35km long and 9km across and spins once per minute (if I remember) to provide 1g gravity.

Proxima is the nearest star to the Sun. It is a red dwarf, 1/5 the size of our Sun and 20,000 times dimmer. Here we see it seen from the surface of one of its planets. To the left one can also make out Alpha Centauri, which is a binary star with two Sun-like components.

Acrylic on Canvas - 10" x 8"
Preliminary for a future painting. I was inspired by a trip to Southwest and saw many of rock formations as vantage points for imagining.
