I know I just started here, but the same is going to be true for all my social media. I can't help but feel the effect of the approval seeking and searching for accolades and praise from posting my artwork online. I don't disparage any artists that do post online, but for me it became too much of a consideration in the process of creation.
I want to create paintings that portray the beauty that I see around me every day. I have no mind for marketing or promotion and I'm not looking for fame or fortune. I won't stop painting, but I think that I will stop posting it.
Thank you to everyone who has supported me for the past week or so. I will stay on this platform and I hope it grows into something beautiful and wonderful.

I had a great time painting out at Vasquez Rocks on the weekend. I tried to record the painting processs but unfortunately the video file was corrupted. C'est la vie.

Hopefully I didn't miss your zappy mood, I sent almost all my zaps I had to Walker in his stream the other day. This is such a great system!

Thank you, yes I think you're right about that. I hope to carry some of the essence of what he brilliantly captured with me into my paintings.

If you're in the steerage class with 1500 followers, I guess I'm a little barnacle on the hull of the ship.

Beautiful. Are these paintings done in studio or en plein air?

Gm here's my daily little oil painting study this morning.
Mastercopy of Joaquin Sorolla, one of my absolute favorites. His perception and expression of color is insane!

This is a digital painting I did based on a photo I took while walking around alone in Japan late at night. I love exploring foreign cities and small towns when it's still and silent. I tried to evoke that feeling in this painting.
This was also a stylistic experiment of using only simplified hard-edge shapes with airbrushed light.

Désolé pour mon mauvaise français. Je voulais dire la palette d'Anders Zorn.

Some paintings from the past month. A little obsessed...

All the work Giger did on this was basically transferred into what we know as the iconic designs of Alien.

Hey everyone, new to nostr. I've been obsessed with dissecting and hacking tech since high school but got into art due to my love of video games and concept art.
Here's a digital painting I made that encapsulates all of that. (Sidenote: a Belgian TV studio licensed this for some show a few years back, wish I could've found it)
