PASSAGE: VERGE (1989) 
Acrylic on Canvas - 48" X 36"

 There are other, more metaphysical meanings to be derived from this painting, but at the time I was doing it I had decided to "step off the brink," professionally speaking. 1/2 #art

A mysterious woman, hooded in windswept robes, stops at the edge of a rocky outcrop. With palm up, she holds out her hand, and above it floats a transparent sphere containing a solitary flame. At the edge of the cliff, she stands framed by a tall arch in the distance. A circle—an echo set above the vessel she holds—sits high in the arch. Anchored by elegantly curving supports, it suggests something mystical as if it may not exist physically in this world but rather serve as a portal to the next. Behind, blue skies fade to a peach streak across the horizon and the misty hills rolling below. She seems poised to step out into open air but she turns her head back, partially revealing her face. Her thoughts linger on where the next step will lead. Will it be over the edge and down? Or does this passage lead to someplace else?

“Our relationship with our audience is something we don’t take for granted” is a lie. A24 could care less about their audience or their “artists”. Never mind sitting on the sidelines.

A24 defends AI partnership “Our relationship with our audience is something we don’t take for granted .. We want to dictate what tools get built for artists, and so they have a voice in shaping them rather than having tools handed to them. We’d rather have a seat at the table than on the sidelines"

More than simply criticizing nuclear weaponry or war, Shin Godzilla holds up a critical mirror to humanity's inability to evolve beyond old ways of thinking and its lack of accountability.

Daniel Dockery@dandock.bsky.social · last mo.

Shin Godzilla's theme of a stuffy political old guard being both unprepared and unwilling to handle apocalyptic disaster and effectively forcing a proactive new group to take the reins is, ummm, pretty timely.

hating your art is not a virtue, it's a sign of burn out or mental illness. the same way your muscles ache if you exercise too much or your stomach hurts if you're starving. learn to identify it as a sign you're pushing too hard or expecting too much of yourself somehow and check in with yourself.

Hey artists, let's share some helpful things in the community :) 🎨 What's one tip or trick you would give a new artist in your chosen medium? (Or just in general!)

While there’s a lot of talk and criticism regarding #ffxiv and its community, the lack of commentary concerning the overarching themes of parenthood within the Dawntrail expansion is telling.
