New Art: Kiss of Death [Imagine That #56]

I do this sort of art sometimes when I need a break, don’t feel like studying, learning programs, looking at references, grappling with AI, modeling, or making sketches.

Dark Art for Bright People: 16 Artists

[The gallery shows artists I’ll feature in this post.] I have to face it. A lot of people don’t like my art because of the content. They say it is unpleasant! And people suggest I tone it down, and switch up my subject matter for something more peaceful or uplifting, or at least not as…

Today from the archives is a realist digital painting, "Scissors and Ball" from 1/2019.
Today from the archives, "Bat Girl Bites Back", digital painting, 6/ 2020. I feel like this one slipped under the radar and was scarcely noticed by my audience.
Today from the archives, "The Sphynx", digital painting [2017]. This is a rather ecstatic mix of painterliness, Expressionism and Surrealism.
Today's blast from the past is "CEOTK", digital drawing, 2016. This is just drawing without any preconception to see what arises. Some of the details are pretty cool, like the slime dripping from one of hte hands. I made it this square format for IG when I joined up in 2016. I was optimistic about breaking in. Never happened.
Today from the archives, "Seafood Spaghetti Sunday" [Digital painting, 2013]
Today's pic from the archive, "100 Line Experiment". Yes, it's an experimental piece with precisely 100 lines, and a dot. I don't normally do abstract art(actually "non-representational" but everyone says "abstract"), but on occasion I certainly enjoy it. It's kind of like instrumental music.
