The Orchid's Dream, 2026 Finished this painting that I’ve been working on since 2020 (concept sketch was pre-2020). During that time it mostly sat on my easel neglected while I worked on higher priorities. Prints are in the works, join my newsletter if that’s something you’re interested in.
My coaster art from Gallery Nucleus's Salut! show is now available for purchase online. There's only one left, "Knowledge of the Strangling Fruit"... www.nucleusportland.com/products/s11...
the biggest gap in recognition between laypeople and experts in my field imo is that the image on the left, which I did in 5 minutes, took more skill than the image on the right, which took me half an hour.
I've been thinking a lot about visible vs invisible skill layers. i.e every craft has outer layers of skills that laypeople can recognise, and inner layers that you need expertise and experience to perceive at all. Could y'all think of examples of visible vs invisible skills in your own discipline?
Omg 10 photos?!!?? Yes please Btw you can get printed off all of these: www.inprnt.com/gallery/ayla...
Apparently I haven't posted here in a month. It's always so tempting to drop off all of social media. But hey, here's a The Magician from my deck, the Blood Moon Tarot.
My weekly cards from my deck, the Blood Moon Tarot, over the past few weeks.
It bears repeating. Though, there's more to it than that as well.
People horny posting about my fruit like I didn't paint it that way on purpose.

I feel like every program is just drowning in obnoxious AI now. Are there any good video editing and photo editing programs out there that aren't just... full of AI?

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

I love painting so much, when I show you this painting I’ve just finished later today it will convince everyone to love and adore me and agree to give me a million pounds so I can move out of my sisters old bedroom without getting a job that makes me want to kill myself!!!
This was drawn a few years ago but might as well be apt for how I'm feeling this #YearOfTheHorse. Riding #PudgyHorse onto a pyre of my sketchbooks and materials. 🙃 Obvious nod to Arthur Rackham's 1911 illustration of Brünhilde's immolation scene from Götterdämmerung. #ChineseNewYear #LunarNewYear
Posting the silly boobie potion here because it's the only place I can post it. A little inspiration came from the 1828 miniature self portrait Sarah Goodridge painted of her breasts.
