We all have forests on our minds. Forests unexplored, unending. Each one of us gets lost in the forest, every night, alone.

Every generation needs its Galaxy Quest: a movie that, despite every individual element screaming that it can't be good, is actually good

I also hope folks can keep an eye out for my fellow coworkers, all incredible artists, going through the same thing right now, as they individually choose to share

Another artist Marvel let go today was Visual Development Director @andyparkart.bsky.social !

Which is wild as Andy is a staple!

Andy was responsible for the visual direction of the Guardian of the Galaxy movies, the designs of Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, Shang-Chi, latest Thor, and so much more!

I’m sure there’s someone who has worded it better than me but the idea of MARVEL, a universe born from comics has no problem laying off their ENTIRE team of visual artists …

Here’s just ONE of the artists Marvel Studios let go today:

Wesley Burt, a brilliant veteran, one of the best in the industry. He made the viral Fantastic Four Valentine’s day card!

He was also pivotal for the look of many films and shows like for example Loki, Black Panther, Avengers and so on!

Can’t believe the news, Disney shutting down the marvel. vis dev department. This teams art made them billions and billions of dollars, but it seems that paying a handful or so of fulltime illustrators is simply too much to ask these days.

Disney Layoffs Hit Marvel Studios Hard The Academy Award-winning artists behind some of Marvel's biggest hits are among the casualties from company wide staff reductions.

Devastated to hear the entire Marvel Studios’s Visual Development team has been let go. This was my old home but more importantly, the home of so many incredible artists and peers.

Absolutely heartbreaking 😔
Sending all my impacted peers my love and support. Please reach out if you need anything!

So saddened to hear about Gary Kelley’s passing. Kelley has been my favorite illustrator since i’ve been in art school, and you cannot overstate the level of influence he’s had on the American illustration cannon. One of the greatest to ever do it, and A terrible loss

I was fortunate to meet Gary through illustration friends once or twice years back, wish I could have been able to chat and learn more from him

it didn't really go anywhere, but I referenced that HtwJW episode and the faux-luxury style scaffolding in discussions while on pre-production for Fantastic Four for subtle setting cues in that neo 60's NYC 😂
