The morning studio light is filtering through a dense, smoky haze here in western North Carolina today.

Let's all keep choosing to make art through the apocalypse, alright y'all?

Sorry to y'all who followed me after I posted the DOGE thing, I mostly post boring little drawings.

The fourth installment of my slow effort to illustrate the entire Daodejing with little abstractions.
I did the opening chapter with a similar stippling style and swore I'd never do it again, but then I figured the Eternal Void of Endless Possibilities deserved some patience.
