Don’t know much about purchasing guns but I assumed that was already a thing? Guess the folks really love their guns 😭

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

"No matter how corrupt, greedy, and heartless our government, our corporations, our media, and our religious & charitable institutions may become, the music will still be wonderful. If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: The only proof he needed for the existence of God was music."

RIP Kurt Vonnegut. Gone 18 yrs. Dang.

I'm not religious but I believe in the Holy Trinity

Harris Dickinson as John Lennon in the new Beatles movie

Whipped this quick thing up at work before my shift started. Maybe I’ll do something with it

Thinking about starting a surrealist zine about the music scene. Too many ideas of things I wanna do but this might be a way to synthesize my passion of music and art. Might be cool 🤔

I think AI could be useful only as a TOOL. In terms of getting something done in Adobe faster like removing a bg or something, for example. Just for efficiency. But using AI to create “art” completely from scratch destroys the concept of authenticity. Environmental concerns are another thing too.

I love being a human artist and creating something never before seen, out of my mind’s eye. I love making every decision with care. I love trying and failing. I love noticing mistakes and fixing them. I love it all.

Another piece I just finished last night. Took some time and some pieces of sanity.

“C’est La Vie. Can Someone Please Translate That For Me?”

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Loveless album cover

#graphicallyyours #musicchallenge Loveless by My Bloody Valentine really did influence shoegaze aurally and also graphically

Sharing the cover art here, but a new single will be released in a few weeks 😁

Carry Stress in the Jaw-Mr Bungle

As a dude in his late 30’s who recently got back into making art, I am here to tell you:

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO CHASE YOUR PASSION.

GET AFTER IT.

i want to love everyone and have universal positive regard for humanity, but some of you mf'ers make it VERY hard

i genuinely think that guinness is one of the best tasting beers, i'm sorry

Planning to watch the Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie. Is it any good?

i like being an artist because i have a lot of stupid ideas. then i can turn them into reality and inflict them on everyone else

Whatever else might happen, today I talked to David Cronenberg for a half hour about sexuality, grief and atheism, and that’s going into the mental scrapbook forever.
