This bear market has been tough, but I am so so happy to share that in spite of high gas fees and the memecoin craze, my edition, Spectral Visions, has been collected by @brightlightart.bsky.social on foundation!

Thank you so much my friend <3

Firefly Beta is coming along, the team is very engaged with community feedback and it will likely be integrated into their existing apps, such as photoshop. Adobe is def positioning firefly to be the superior tool comparatively, so im staying tuned in.

LOOOL oh noes!

Oh yea i saw your playground ai post! I do subscribe to MJ and also Adobe software, etc. I am a trad artist who also incorporates digital and ai into my process, so my art sales go back into my subscriptions, tools, and further art making. most of my work is sold, only a few new pieces left atm.

Lol oh i am 100% aligned with you there. my sub is strictly about my art biznes for the reach while diversifying elsewhere. I just need this diversification to like.. go faster. Lmao

New art btw! (not minted or listed)

I have 10 physical paintings to put on canvas and haven't yet decided if I want to put these two new artworks on eth, tez, or paint them. I am open to offers while I sit on them to consider where they will go.

i have blue + 2fa so i don't suspect its that, though that would be reasonable if it only effected non-checks. more likely just a major internal error trying to change the system again.

also, hey fam! good to see you, lol

here is my prompt for anyone who would like to play with this style for bioluminescent translucency, or lumination:

"glowing translucent iridescence bioluminescent opalescent grecian statue of david, tropical palm botanicals, sculptured body, illuminated neon translucency, close up view"

Sharing this update of mine from the bird app, cus I won the 0xAi bounty with this prompt challenge! whew! *champagne clink*

Yes, it’s a constant urge to produce the idea, never ending current of vision lol

The idea of “following the rules” by choosing a style didn’t appeal to me, so I started fusing different styles to try to capture something that blurred realism with.. something else. I still struggle with capturing what that looks like, so I often use abstract brushstrokes to imitate the feeling.

Great thread, and love this topic. For me personally, I was compulsively creative since I was tiny, sought out various career opportunities that utilize those skills but at my core I just always had the urge to make something I could barely imagine, it’s hard to explain lol

oh goodness the crop in bluesky is :(

Good Morning!

My current work in progress, a landscape abstraction, will be titled "Adrift in a Kaleidoscope Reverie"

First time I’m accessing Bluesky on my phone (been on desktop) and it loads so much smoother! I love it.

Here is a pic of my blue sky today, in San Diego.

yay you made it!! <3
