I've been talking about this game for months and nobody wanted to listen. "All video games are bad now" "I'm sick of remakes" WELL HERE YOU GO, MAN. A bunch of crazy French people made this insane cool game for us and it shouldn't go ignored.

Mark my words, after 5 months of hype from Apple and others about Apple Intelligence, when it actually comes out next week, there is going to be a lot of “that’s it?” or “where is it?” from consumers.

"EAGLES MERE, INK WASH II", One of the great benefits of working in an ink wash drawing, like this piece, is that I can simultaneously work on on my brush handling and my awareness of value. : bit.ly/eaglesm_ink_2 #drawing #inkwash #landscape #art #ink #inkdrawing

"PIEDMONT SILO II" | One challenge I've wrestled with when painting landscapes is being able to infuse the work with a life of its own, to be able to create a world for the viewer that can come alive: bit.ly/pdmnt_silo_II #oilpainting #landscape #art #pleinair

"CALVARIA N.172", Original Size: 18"x24" Charcoal on Paper | In this still-life drawing, I'm experimenting with the approach some artists use to treat the work of art as a stage set with characters as if in a play. Purchase prints or the original here: bit.ly/calvaria_n172

"PUMPKIN WITH BLUE, 2015" | There is a three-dimensional quality to the pumpkin, and yet it has weight enough to feel as though it is sitting in the space created by the fabric. Purchase prints or the original here: bit.ly/pkin_wblu_2015 #oilpainting #stilllife #art

"SELF PORTRAIT N.171" | This piece was a particularly humbling to finish. A viewer wouldn't be able to tell by seeing the finished piece but this painting went through several revisions even after I thought I finished it twice: bit.ly/self_prt_n171 #oilpainting #portrait

"FIGURA N.162" | The marks in this figure drawing blend the edges of the figure and the background to help create a sense of space. The model poses nicely with interesting angles. Purchase prints or the original here: bit.ly/figura_n162 #lifedrawing #figuredrawing #drawing

"FIGURA CHROMA N.1706" | Original Size: 12"x16" Oil Painting on Paper, 2017 The apparent difference between figure painting and drawing the figure is that in painting I have to deal with color. bit.ly/fig_chrma_1706 #figurative #figurativeart #art #painting #oilpainting

"Piedmont Silo I" |The field in the front is pushed forward by the outcrop of trees silhouetted by the light of the landscape behind them, while the barn and silo tuck into a mid-point to anchor the eye. For More: bit.ly/piedmont_silo_1 #landscape #painting #oilpainting

"CALVARIA NO.146" | What I enjoy the most about this particular still-life drawing is how it feels to me like a landscape. There are a few pieces that I've been able to create as much solidity to the objects as I have in this one. For More: bit.ly/calvaria_n_146
