Man ponders if he is still a good person if helping others benefits him. The universe answers and tells him: 'Be kind, I don't care why'

[ catch a falling star ]

new personal work. 8 hours tracked time on procreate/ipad and about an hour finishing touches on photoshop.

#fantasyart #originalart #fantasyvibes
Digital painting of a woman standing with her back to us, though we can see her face looking up in profile. Her right arm is bent and reaching up towards a glowing star. She has navy blue curls and wears a backless dress that matches in color. A vivid blue, sparkling strip of fabric is wound around her arms and draped across her back. The sky is cloudy and a greyish-purple.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

So utterly disappointed in Larian/Swen to hear that they have incorporated AI into their process, but *especially* in Concept Art.

That is a role so many illustrators and artists would love to have, and could bring so much creative passion, joy, experience and expression too.

Panel 1: Shen is standing between 2 artists is red French berets on. The artists don't have any detail, they are just generic smiling figures. Shen is look nervously to his right and sweating, his hands up a bit. He thinks "I don't belong here with these legit artists!" Panel 2: Shen tightly closes his eyes and clenches his fists, looking down a bit. The background turns a wavy purple and magenta. He thinks "NO. RELAX. It's just IMPOSTER SYNDROME." Panel 3: Shen looks up triumphantly, blowing steam from his nose, sparkles in his eyes. The background turns a bright yellow with sharp orange sparkles emanating from the center. He thinks "YEAH! THEY >>ALL<< PROBABLY FEEL >>JUST LIKE I DO!!<<" Panel 4: We return to Shen standing between the two other artists with a determined expression and his fists clenched. One of the artists looks at the other while pointing at Shen and says "We should kill this imposter."

It's my cake day and I have been told I am allowed to request some love for my work in the form of likes and shares and external validation. 🎂

(And if you'd like to support what I do I wouldn't say no either... 👀)

Adjusted for inflation Spirited Away cost $22 million to make. The Triplets of Belleville cost $16.5 million, Cartoon Saloon's Wolfwalkers cost $14.28 million, and Oscar winner Flow cost only $4 million. These critically acclaimed, made by real people films, cost less than this pile of actual vomit.

If the AI bubble really is bursting, please take this lesson from it:

Nothing marketed to you this relentlessly is ever worth it. If it was, they wouldn’t need to beg you.

Bell has said that how they are received at THIS SHOW will determine how they use their A I photo booths going forward, so if you want to let them know how unacceptable this is, please make sure Bell and FanExpo know.
