Dissected torso produced in wax by the famed Florentine modeller Clemente Susini

A female torso showing the anatomy of the thorax with the right shoulder and through also dissected. The face is still intact, and lies serenely tilted back, eyes shut. The hair is dark and curling, and the figure is in a glass case with a wooden back, with white cloth between the figure and the board

Soon I'm also planning to launch a quarterly newsletter that is solely focused on #medicalIllustration, since the monthly newsletter is a mashup of all my varied creative works. So stay tuned for that, especially if you're here for the #SciArt.

The problem with LLMs and related technologies is not that they are useless. It’s that their genuine but limited uses are so very different from the fantasies used to sell them. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/16/o...

I've been waiting all year to repost this 🎃

A pumpkin patch in a variety of shapes and colours, some with carved faces with different expressions. Between the pumpkins are black and white cats, crows, frogs, bushes, twigs and mushrooms.

Two botanical paintings from 2021. Acrylic paint on 8x8" canvas, both sold. I hope to get back to a mental place where I can make art like this again some day.

For me it was just vinegar, it smelled and tasted metallic, almost like bile. I feel like the altered senses really bring out the worst essence of certain foods. It only lasted less than a week for me, hoping you have a similar brief timeline.

If it is a real painting, I have observed that some people are very technically skilled but absolutely freeze when faced with artistic decision making. They’re capable of duplicating every minor detail in a reference image and totally miss the point that they can make it look however they want!

Are you an AI hater? Then these pins are for you! Just dropped in my shop! Made from eco-friendly recycled acrylic. ✨ shop.breelundberg.com/product/anti...

Photo of round-ish acrylic pin badges on backing cards. The pins are circles with the letters "AI" crossed out. There are two color versions. One is pink and dark blue, the other is green and light blue.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.

These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Artists are losing work, wages, and hope as bosses and clients embrace AI

Visual artists, illustrators and graphic designers share their stories about how AI is being used to lower wages, degrade work and even replace it altogether, in this installment of AI Killed My Job.

From @theatlantic.com: As #CDC credibility falters, experts are stepping in with science-based guidance.

During the Texas #measles outbreak, @pandemiccenter.bsky.social's data contradicted RFK Jr.’s assertions the crisis was subsiding said center Director @jennifernuzzo.bsky.social.

Who to Trust If You Can’t Trust the CDC

No American institution is equipped to replace the agency. But a few trusted resources can help.

Two new collages. I recently acquired a whole lot of new collage ephemera and was finally feeling inspired yesterday for the first time in many months.
#collage #analogCollage #handcutCollage

A handcut collage with a bright blue background and a sunbathing lady floating atop a swan. There is a set of dentures opening at the swan's backside, and the words "FREE FREE" toward the top of the composition. Describing a surreal collage in alt text makes it sound so much more surreal than it actually looks.

A handcut collage with a group of retro looking youths lounging in some grass in the foreground, against a background of the solar system represented in bold shapes of black, white, and teal. Two giant birds are in the "sky" one creeping in from each left and right side of the composition. Describing a surreal collage in alt text makes it sound so much more surreal than it actually looks.
