'Indulgence'

"I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other." (Mary Shelley, Frankenstein)

The deadly mermaid is here! She is a little bored today, no one new to meet and greet in the sea and invite down to the depths with her💀

An illustration of a mermaid laying on her side with her back to us. She has pale hair and a red tail with dark pink skin. Her fins are translucent and can be seen to be so as they curl around her back. Around her are bones and skulls of humans. She rests her arm on a skull. The background is a plain light peachy pink

I can't post nude or sexual art on social media, but the genAI machine can spit out the depraved shit it absorbed on the world wide web in the tone of a friend on command. That's cool. "We care about mental health so much we want to replace real human interaction with AI you can pretend isnt AI."

Whenever I'm really excited to share a finished drawing that I'm especially proud of, it's like the absolute least interesting thing ever to everyone else, and then I end up having some sort of crisis over my taste level and how unimpressive my sensibilities are. Lmao. Oh well.

Lowkey glad Gaiman won't get hired to speak in documentaries anymore. Dude always has the dumbest most incorrect shit to say. Idgaf if it's arrogant to say this, but the guy doesn't seem to grasp literary traditions at all. I never want to see him talk about Lovecraft ever again.

Wisptober Day 8 - Eat

"The fey heard rustling in the leaves just as they went to take a bite… Who would dare interrupt their meal?"

This one is growing on me even if I wish I had had the time to work out a better pose.:)

Found a new artist to investigate, today.

James Tissot, "Jesus Ministered to by Angels." 1886-1894.

This is just ink and coloured pencils. No watercolour paint or paper. I think I'm going to do my drawings like this for a while.

I finished a drawing without watercolour paint, just ink and coloured pencils, and on different paper...I like it more, so I guess I'll do that for a while.

Zombay!

I kicked this off with a speed sculpt in Blender and finished it off in Photoshop.

Day 3 #hARToween2025 - "Blood Moon"

A little mishap happened with some blue tape but it's fine. 😅
Also got to use masking fluid for the first time! 🎨 🖼️

A watercolor painting of a blood red, full moon in a partially cloudy night sky with a few scattered white stars.
