Currently I post art work. Before the Hadean Eon, I rode the grid as stardust.
Pinned
Just for fun!!! First time I posed this it got compressed, too blurry. So I deleted. I compressed this one myself. So, if it looks good after uploading, it will stay. Otherwise, not. @bsky.art #art #artlover #artsky #artshare #animation #3Danimation
I’ve been busy. So if I may…
This is a painting recently finished, 42x42 inches, oil on canvas, when dry, it will be varnished…

2005 working in the mountains in Colorado, and driving to work in a blizzard (I was from Florida- I didn’t know any better). I stopped at an overlook, and quick-sketched this site. I returned on a misty day and finished it.
Blizzard, pastels, 21 x15 in.

So I worked on the torso shading to pull it all together. Am not sure how much a casual view will notice the difference, but for me it’s more in tune with the natural flow of the dancer’s form. #art @bsky.art

Very current, as I am finishing this...as soon as I pull the bone shading together. Pastels 19x24 inches #art @bsky.art

You engineers need to get a clue, you will be going to jail for a long time once the coup is over and gone.
Quoted from: “The engineers are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. None have responded to requests for comment from WIRED.”

On Leadership

Where is our fearless leader?
Afraid to come out and tell us,
What a great man he is?
During this tragic moment?
He has the best brain.
He has the best words.
Where is his best hidden?
Today.
