If you wouldn't mind, send me a quick DM I'd love to discuss the paid muse opportunity proper. It feels too important to discuss in the replies. Thanks✨

By the way, I'm Kesley Ortega, the artist who commented earlier. That kind of principled commitment you show in your writing is exactly the energy I'm looking to capture for my commissioned series

Absolutely, It's an obligation, not an option. The core principle is often summarized as: 'You have an obligation to refuse to obey any illegal order.' It's a foundational legal principle that often gets overlooked in these political debates

The concept of the duty to disobey is such a crucial piece of military and legal ethics, and it gets dangerously overlooked. That WaPo piece and the Admiral Bradley quote are powerful context. A necessary reminder

Wow, that US Government decision is truly infuriating. You hit the nail on the head calling it disrespectful. It's an erasure of 44 million stories. Thank you for using your platform to remember and call for accountability

Oh really 😏, by the way, I'm Kesley, it's my pleasure to meet you. If you wouldn't mind, you can send a DM let's discuss proper

This is a professional collaboration. I offer compensation for the use of your image and will provide a straightforward formal agreement for mutual security and reference.
I would be honored if you would consider collaborating

I'm seeking highly expressive individuals whose faces tell a genuine story, and your look especially with your clear passion and conviction would be absolutely perfect for an oil on canvas piece I have planned

Hello Tiffany ,my name is Kesley Ortega, and I'm a professional oil portrait artist based in San Francisco I was immediately drawn to the authentic and powerful presence reflected in your profile. I am currently working on a significant commissioned client project titled 'HUMAN FACIAL EXPRESSIONS.'

If you are actually a human being on here and not a miserable bot, please just DM an artist back! My sanity depends on it

Seriously, at least on TikTok and Instagram people are actually creating and engaging without this constant, exhausting mental warfare. Hell, right now, even the 'so-called Twitter' feels easier to navigate

This isn't social media; it's a social coup in disguise. Every single thread is pure toxic chaos, negativity, and undying hate. It's draining! I'm an artist trying to connect with real people, and I’m hitting more walls here than I ever did on Instagram

I swear, trying to find genuinely expressive muses for my 'HUMAN FACIAL EXPRESSIONS' project on here is like pulling teeth. Everybody is so goddamn emotionally unavailable and utterly suspicious like talking to a brick wall that secretly hates Elon🪫

Honestly, this platform is driving me insane right now. I thought we all fled the dumpster fire that Twitter became to find some peace, some community, and some actual collaboration. What a joke! 🤬

This confirms I am committed and ready to paint

Once we agree to terms, I will immediately take a photo of my blank 50cm x 50cm canvas with a written note on the easel that says 'For Unit K80' and send it to you before you send me any images

I currently don't have high-quality photos of my past work ready for sharing
Here is my guarantee to prove I am a real artist:
I will send you the formal, compensated agreement first. You can review it, see my full legal name, and verify the terms

I completely understand the hesitation, I wish I could send a link, to be 100% honest, I'm currently working on building my professional digital portfolio after shifting my focus entirely to oil portrait commissions this year

If you are open to collaborating on this piece, please let me know
Best, Kesley Ortega
