The original version of this was posted on my FAisDM (felicitousArtisan is Darth Mongoose) Tumblr many years ago. I drew it at about 11pm right before going to bed, trying to express something I felt about art. When I woke up it kinda blew up.

HOW TO BE ANARTIST.
Make some art.-> Does it look terrible? 1. YEAH 2. NO (both lives lead to thesame conclusion box) -> You are an artist -> Make more art

A first time @thedailytism.com listener might misunderstand the first voice to actually name themselves ("hi I'm Andrew Hickey") in the 500 Songs ad is OBVIOUSLY NOT Andrew Hickey and then woosh the white guys joke it's me I'm listener and for some reason I'm a VERY LITERAL MAN

"yay, new book is here! hey what gives, not signed? didn't I preorder a signed copy?" Yeah you did. In April. Which was long enough for your ADHD brain to completely forget you already preordered this standard copy in Jan. 📔📔 Support art & authors! Then forget and support them some more! 😅

It's my first time using Prismacolors. Like *really* using them, more than just one at a time, trying to be intentional with base colors and blending and stuff. It's fun! The same gold pencil over yellow base vs gold sharpie base (center circle), before and after

Laser cut wood model colored with markers and colored pencils. Putting down a bright yellow base color makes the gold color appear differently.

as a vacation treat I got myself this wood #modelkit and decided I'm gonna jazz it up with some pretty colors. whether plastic and paint, or wood and colored pencils, it scratches the same itch: it feels good filling in the little details, to breathe life into it. make stuff pretty. #art

A laser-cut wood model kit in progress. The plain wood is brought to life by vibrant colored pencils.

"but how will Steam Frame compete against the Meta Quest 3?" easily? like, have we not been clear enough? I don't want Meta required for a peripheral. Would you buy a TV with Meta account required? why's it different on your head? Steam Frame is the clear winner vs. a thing I'll never ever buy
