another update about my mental health. once again: i am posting this in the hopes that it de-stigmatizes MH and helps anyone out there who needs help but has been afraid or ashamed to get it. #mentalhealth

Coming from a theater background it’s been totally bizarre to me how many writers of books don’t understand it’s a social business

art is a community, and part of being an artist is being a part of that community: go to openings. see the work of your peers. talk with people about their work and your work. participate. you might create work alone, but you and your art does not exist in a bubble.

me contemplating my art at the memorial art gallery finger lakes exhibition preview. #art #sculpture #videoart

my wifi password is "gofastboatsmojito"

ok how about this instead: i'll keep my air conditioning on and you can turn off all the machines generating AI "art."

idea: "AI art offsets." every time you use AI you have to put a few dollars into an account that you will spend buying art from human artists.

#art and #design is my passion

the creative process isn't magic. it's work. #art #design

how to make: step 1: have an idea. step 2: worry you will never have another idea. step 3: have another idea. step 4: repeat. #art #design

my video installation piece "Artifact 8" (2024) installed at the @magrochester.bsky.social for the 69th Finger Lakes Exhibition - opening June 28! #art #sculpture

i have recently realized that the messier my studio is and dirtier i am at the end of my creative process, the more i enjoyed doing it. #art

toxic #design mythologies: when you love what you do it isn't work. eat, breathe, & sleep design 24 x 7 x 365. you can learn everything from youtube. critique should be brutal. hustle, hustle, hustle. you have to have side projects. you can sleep when you're dead. only big name studios matter. 1/2

i just want to reach out and thank adobe for making sure i don’t spend too much time at my desk working and staring at my computer — having their software crash my entire computer randomly forces me to get up and take a walk pretty often so I really super appreciate it. #art #design

holy crap i love organizing my studio so much. #art

summer is when i make most of my work, so this is a note to self: rule 1: real artists make art. rule 2: making makes ideas. rule 3: my job is to fuck around and find out.

student: i don't know what I'm supposed to do for this project. me: neither do i. student: ...? me: student: ...?? me: student: …??? me: student: but... but... but you’re the... me: welcome to art school. #art

once again, adobe cares about money, not you. (via @theverge.com www.theverge.com/news/670241/... ) #design #art

1. it elevated me far, far, far past where i could have gotten on my own or via free stuff online. it gave me a motivated community of like-minded people. it gave me creative, intellectual, and social stimulation. it gave me a career. 2. it was worth 100x what i paid. it changed my life entirely.

students: if you had a tough semester, failed a class, had to pause enrollment, or are feeling bad about your college experience, just a reminder: it took me 16 years to get my BFA. there is absolutely no “correct” way to do this, there is only your way. just keep being who you are. #art #design

hi everyone! we are looking for people to teach foundation classes at RIT in Rochester NY this fall! specifically: 2D Design 3D Design Drawing note that these are in-person only, part time, paid positions, no MFA needed. if you are interested please message me! thank you! #art #design

theory: you can replace the caption of any @newyorker.com cartoon with "what font is that?" #typography

"because I felt like it" and "because it looks cool" can be excellent reasons. #art

one of (many) reasons i don't like AI art is because the fun part of having a creative practice is making the art, rather than having finished making the art. why would i want to give the fun part away to a computer? #art
