I don't want to shoot videos
I don't want to post tutorials
I don't want to show my process
I don't want to pour varnish
I don't want to turn my canvas
I don't want to record my screen
I don't want to cultivate parasocial relationships
I just want to make pictures and shitpost

Why did the old Persians hold the sea holy? Why did the Greeks give it a separate deity, and own brother of Jove?
You won’t believe what I saw…
Its not a hot take but man the way the word "content" is used these days. A vile bit of late stage capitalist propaganda, lumping all forms of human creativity and expression into a single wastebin teaching the public to treat all art as disposable.

I agree though that conferences are stupid expensive. I've been lucky to present at state conferences and have been allowed to talk via Zoom, though.

Hey Brian, this is extremely apropos of nothing, but can you DM me your contact information? I'm not sure I have the most latest way to get in touch. I hope you love New York -- we miss you down here!
A digital illustration of an anthro raccoon, named Mars, hiding behind a monstera plant, his right eye visible through the holes in the leaf. Mars has his hands up lightly moving leaves and plants out of the way. Mars has a wide-eyed expression. Different plants frame the sides of the illustration. The illustration uses mainly blues, teals, green, and purple.

We need historians because the past is never just the past.
Every policy debate, public conversation, and cultural shift is shaped by what came before. Historians help us understand context, trace change over time, and recognize what’s at stake.

One of the best weekends in awhile.
A drawing of a Muppet-y Cloud Strife riding on a Big-Bird-like chocobo.
From this day in 2021: My nephews were curious about Final Fantasy after seeing a Moogle I drew and I described Chocobos as looking "kind of like Big Bird" so then I had to draw it.
My turn!
