Beautiful things I've encountered this week: Masked Senju Kannnon, Sailor Song by Gigi Perez, Sound(wave) of the sun, Frozen Cheese Croquettes(5pc. for less than a dollar!), The one thunder without sound, Lonely artists and writers with eyes that wonder around anxiously in an interview.
I sometimes come across Gen AI works on instagram and think, that the creature depicted in the picture is something that differs from what we draw and symbolize as humans. It feels as if I'm looking at newfound specie of alien. I'm really fond of faults in an artistic piece. By faults I mean unique human tendencies.That's what excites me about art .Therefore,Im against AI for the most part.
It's a conclusion that majority of people have gone with; the money earning, the busy life, the progress that we might not have needed to live happily. As part of the society,I have to accept this but hope that one day, I can encourage people to live more freely and peacefuly with strength and honesty.I feel like Oda is doing this and I appriciate that. I really want to do what he does.
Beauty, please look away and contain it evermore. Don't stare directly at it. It's Medusa's eyes you are looking at; tightening up so you won't fly no more.
Lately,I've been seeing the same person in my dream. It's someone who I admire alot,and they talk to me about something everytime I see them but I somehow can't recall what it was about.
I saw a video essay about the office today, and learned somewhat about character writing. I don't really know why, but I tend to have appreciation for weird characters who have some power but has no idea how to use them. (or they are just downright mad.) Like the Boss in Smiling Friends,Lemongrab in adventure time,Prince Hata in Gintama, Wonka in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the Johnny Depp one) and Michael Scott in the Office.I think they are really neat.Maybe its the comical aspect that I'm after
I myself am going mad over Paolo Uccello's "Saint George and the Dragon". How could one compete with that? I try, and will keep trying.
I went to the theaters to see Robot Dreams yesterday. A very cute film containing weird icecream dude. The chaos is nice; we should encourage chaos and lonliness because that't the beauty of life. Once in a while we'd ask if we remember those tunes and will look back on the beauty that left us.
I love lonely people in chaos becuase they are great, truly beautiful.I hope they find peace in themselves and the chaotic world around. More on Spirits of the sky, Gremlins in the Clouds and The Man Who Stole th Sun; two of my favorite films.
I've not been objective enough lately but decided to think that drawing and coding are very similar in a way.
House made of blue galvanized iron sheets."Totan" is a interesting word.
Anyways,I want to do better before the new year comes. Trying my hardest.
Maybe try more complex compositions and shapes, as well as ideas.I've liked keeping stuff simple for the past few month, but doesn't hurt to do somethings different once in a while.
Today at around 2am, I have detected a new topia called "Chronotopia".This is a topia with high walls, pentrating the sky. The top tiers are inhabited by the rich and the old,and is quite airly. No one knows that they've lived their whole lives in a Kingofisher Facility; they just percieve it as an open world like ours.The bottom tiers are the closest to exit, but with chaos and havoc down there, no one believes the exit exists. Well, except for one anyways. I have no idea what to call this individual but they symbolize "a grain of sand in a million"
Because this topia lacks in natural occuring entertainment, there are theaters all around with game machines. It's a dark dark place if you don't live at the top tier, and reminded me bit of a Satyrcon by Felini.
Interested in making wind blow through my pieces, but I don't plan on getting adobe afteraffects so attempting to understand it manually.
I have no intention of making my illustrations political and have a very specific back story in mind that has nothing to do with the real world and yet, I realize that my subconscious is too strong when I look back at works I did in the past. It's really up to everyone else to interpret my art as they like, but I really am a pacifist when it comes to all things.
I wonder if the world would be a better place if all portable digital screens were horizontal rather verticle. More on the belief of Niraikanai.(also, I would like to know more on belief in symbolism.)
I created a banner for my page yesterday, and found it quite entertaining. I would love to add more zany gif's to my page, and do commissioned gif packs.
Really am interested in making more surreal/horror art right now.
Is AI beautiful from perspective of an outsider, like an alien who has no understanding of society nor culture?
I saw a moonbow.In October, I went to a planentarium with my friend, and they explained what moonbow and white-rainbow was and we were saying that it would be amazing if we can see them in real life. The actual moonbow was so surreal and awesome. The bow being a perfect circle just amuse me. Two weeks ago, I saw a fireball at the same spot. I wish I knew more about everything, but with the US putting forces up there to compete with russian and chinese satelites... Humans always make war everywhere and take peace for granted. Have we lost it? There used to be whole dream up there. I feel like everybody is sick theses days. But we can be free someday, so protect your brains. Is there still hope fore us? Maybe if our thoughts weren't so relative to everything...
Watching Lolita had me thinking about what it means to percieve something. All artists take part in the human perception so I wonder if we are doing any good right now. Because it makes me sick to draw in misogyny and racism among other things.
I used to make games in school, enjoyed it quite a lot. Dabbling in HTML might get me back on that track. I'm on a side-quest here; doing everything my mentors told me not to do and not persuing the recommended path. But I will get back on everything someday; from contemporary painting to game dev to writing in general. I'm here to enjoy and soak up every media I can because just about everything amuses me. How did you manage,davinci?
It's hard being creative in this economy, but I wish you all the best in your endeavors.
As for myself, I've been working on few commissions, (Thankyou so much for the requests! I love working on them, and it helps me out a lot.) as well as a picture book,manga about hypnotopia, and other misc. illustrations. I hate to admit it but I'm an extreme multi-tasker.
Started listening to Hyperpop music because it calms me.The irony. O' to have grown up with a screen on your face and listening to artificial voices. I know I'm truly at peace when I search for classic violin music to listen to ( which I never do).
Things I'm into now
I've been watching onepiece quite a lot these days.I think Edward Newgate is beautiful.Two years ago, I saw a large sea-turtle dead on the beach. It's posture made it seem like it's still alive; with is neck held high. However, it was deceased, with blood on its head.
It was absolutely beautiful,and Edward Newgate kind of reminds me of them. Marine animals are just majestic aren't they?
Neocities; even the name sounds awesome. There are things I'm looking for in life,and this might be one of them. Started coding(?) in html, a complete newbie.
