i’ve been using a lot of the symmetry function in nomad sculpt lately and it’s kind of making me forget that it doesn’t apply in real life. i do in fact need to wash both halves of my face.

i block youtube ads i don’t like and i think they’re running out of ads to give me cuz i just got one that’s a black screen and in chinese. i heard the word mcnugget so i suppose the ad was at least an ad?

i decided to start a series where i paint songs that i found via tiktok, cuz the way the platform is set up means that i’ve found SO many cool new artists from there. this is Blackbird by Seefa. i turned the lyrics about blurred lines to streaks of paint. #art #musicart #artistsofbsky #digitalart
a digital painting, roughly the same aspect ratio an average phone screen. it features a black woman, Seefa, facing the viewer with a look of concentration on her face. Her hands are held up in front of her. Her hands, as well as her hair, appear to be melting away in streaks of colourful paint.

i’ve started blocking ads i dislike on youtube. i don’t like how deliberately misleading the descriptors are. this ad that is explicitly advertising AI? it’s about… sunglasses. and this one features someone from the US government, using the phrase “self deport”? it’s about, um, civics.

who IS the “yeah, i have a carpet in my kitchen” demographic? and why is your toddler’s potty also in there?? maybe i just don’t get it cuz i don’t want kids, but potty and kitchen and carpet all sound incompatible. someone correct me.

youtube’s AI has decided i’m an adult, so that’s a good thing.

it’s also decided that i’m a parent, which is. i mean, as a status it’s neutral, it’s just bizarre having my horror analysis interrupted with ads about diapers.

the cabinet of dr caligari
#drcaligari #oldhorror #artistsofbsky
a digital painting, done in a charcoal style brush. it depicts a man brandishing a knife threateningly, up by his shoulder. his stare is intense. his eye makeup is done in thick black triangles, and he’s wearing a dark lip. the colours are mostly greyscale with hints of primary colours.

#myart #thelodger #alfredhitchcock #ivornovello
a digital painting, done in mostly greyscale with hints of colour, of Ivor Novello playing The Lodger in the Alfred Hitchcock silent film The Lodger; he’s wearing a derby hat, with a layered scarf pulled up to his nose, covering half his face. His eyes are rimmed with red and yellow. His arms are crossed under a heavy cloak.

in your arms tonight

#sinners #artistsofbsky
a digital painting using messy and saturated paint strokes, featuring Sammy, or Preacher Boy, from Sinners. his head is thrown back as he sings, and he’s playing the guitar. lyrics are written to fit the shape of the guitar; on the body it says “they say the truth hurts / so I lied to you” and the neck says “see i’m full of the blues / holy water too” there are three images painted into the background. on the bottom left is the scene where Smoke and Sammy are in the water, with Smoke’s arm around Sammy’s shoulders, and Sammy’s arm around Smoke’s waist. the top left has the image of the burning rafters. a tall twisting flame of takes up the right half of the background.

(does literally anyone follow those tags?) (like actually if you do let’s be friends or something)
a screenshot of Procreate, a digital art app. There are two square images, both with a matching circle/square grid overlaid; on the left is a partially finished painted portrait of a man wearing a derby hat. A layered scarf is pulled up to his nose, covering half his face. the painting becomes clearly unblended and unfinished with the end of his scarf. His eyes are rimmed with red and yellow. The image on the right is the reference image, which is a photograph of the same man. His arms are crossed under a heavy cloak.

Reposting my hooded crow from this time last year because I love his little fall vibes.

(Ref photo by Akbar Nemati)
🦢🐡 #art #birds
a digital painting of a hooded crow. the bird is centered in the image, with most of his body facing forward to the viewer, and his head in profile so that his bill is pointing to the left. he is mostly white with a black head and spots on his wings and tail, but the artist has included flourishes of aqua and blue in his feathers. he is surrounded by yellow and orange leaves that become more and more abstract as they fall to the background. a few blades of green grass cut the front from the left corner.

listen. listen. i am not a swiftie and i don’t wanna step on toes. which is why i’m saying that a swiftie artist should turn some of those album covers into horror art, cuz folklore in particular could go really hard for halloween.
