You all like #WIP, right?
Their good for ya. Keeps wrinkles on your brain to counteract all that smooth brain AI junk.

I am having the biggest brainstorm regarding the philosophy of work right now (0___o).

Enjoy these lil' guys until I figure it out.

That is one photogenic bee.

That’s so cool 😆

Yes! 😁

Oh yeah, me too 😆
I’m more so attacking the philosophical resistance to doing what you love.

Creative work demands joy.

I owe it to myself to work joyfully and consistently on what I’m actually good at and to such an extent that income is inevitable.

I have excelled at forcing myself to do plenty of “real” work of which I was not respected, appreciated, or properly compensated for doing.

Even in terms of currency, my true work should pay dozen times more than I’ve received for wage slaving.

This is the only work I’ve ever encountered where brute force feels like a personal betrayal. That betrayal in turn makes it impossible to focus - fearing the need to find “real” work.

“Real” work which you can force yourself to do.

"working"

You can’t approach creative work with the same mindset you approach work you don’t want to do.

We’re never taught how to work out of true love of our craft. It should feel like summer vacation even if it’s difficult, time consuming, or even painful.

Creative work is not wage slaving.

Unfortunately, for all the denizens of the deep, he lives in a pineapple under the sea - an undead scourge of the depths.

To quote the great poet, LL Cool J:
"Don't call it a comeback, I been here for years
I'm rockin' my peers, puttin' suckers in fear"

Lookit, I've been busy.

This isn't a departure from pixel art or my established projects, btw.

Just an evolution of my creative range.

Gotta keep things fresh to keep the fire going 🔥

I have a lot more planned where this came from 😉

That was a long break.
Here's a piece I worked on last month to make up for it.

"Armed with teeth"

Thanks, Spencer 😁
I'm humbled by your feedback.

Thanks 😁
I'll keep it up then.

3 things:

1. I'm factoring my use of limited palettes into my concept art.
2. I'm thinking of keeping characters flat shaded, but I'm undecided.
3. May experiment with graphic novel format.

Opinions?

I don't know what you did to make this image so unsettling, but it's pretty impressive.

So....I kicked my YouTube addiction using philosophy .

My dark little creative corner is now fueled by Deftones and and John Coltrane.

Twitter is not at all chill anymore.

I'm probably going to just vaporize my old account.

It was never about the clicks and follows anyway.

I advocate for old~school pagination over endless scrolling on social media websites.

Who’s with me?

So I've found a high resolution workflow to partner with my pixel art.

Prints available soon.

Mastering the tools of the trade: Concept Art.

I've settled on a visual style influenced by many Japanese artists that have warped my fragile, American mind.

About dang time!

The practical application of reason is contextual.

To have a lantern in a dark house full of loving people is a godsend, but to have a flashlight in a dark cave of raving cannibals, is an open invitation for harm despite only lighting one's own way.
