Wee piece I did for a local show that closed entries before I could hit send, lol! So I now have this nugget in my hot little hands. Ping me if interested! Graphite, acrylic & rhinestone on paper, 6"x6", framed #DarkArt #OriginalArt #ImaginativeRealism #HorseArt #NatureArt #PopSurrealism #NoAIEver

I’m tired, boss. These people suck.

🎇💖✨🤩 #DarkArt #OriginalArt #PopSurrealism #Graphite #SHINIES #FantasyArt #StartYourCollectionToday!

Today! From @everydayoriginal.bsky.social ... #OriginalArt #PopSurrealism #TheOracle #MysticArt #graphite #rhinestones #BLING

Look at these wee treasures!

How it begins... (Yes, I was a horse kid.) #WIP #OriginalArt #neeeeiggggh

What gorgeous dusk...

I have a thing coming up May 4th o'er at @everydayoriginal.bsky.social ! Graphite, rhinestones, as one does... #DarkArt #PopSurrealism #ImaginativeRealism #OriginalArt #MixedMedia but mostly #Graphite

I don't want to shoot videos I don't want to post tutorials I don't want to show my process I don't want to pour varnish I don't want to turn my canvas I don't want to record my screen I don't want to cultivate parasocial relationships I just want to make pictures and shitpost

I’m seeing tell of AI “witch hunts” and I get it. No one likes to be accused of using AI when they didn’t. But it’s not a witch hunt if there’s actually AI involved, right? Are people really getting “cancelled” when there’s legit no AI at all? Is there a way to handle this gracefully? (1/2)

👏👏👏

Still on the road, BUT LOOK AT THIS BEAUTY I SCORED ON FRENCHMAN ST, NOLA Electric Ladyland Tattoo did not disappoint! I'm eager to get home and get arting again, tho. We've seen (and 🎤 heard🪕) so much amazing human creativity down here... #fckAI

Why I'm radio silent right now...

God, I'm immeasurably pissed that genAI has made it such that I struggle to enjoy looking at contemporary figurative art anymore, or read self-published novels. So much trust has been broken. It's banal AF. Just staaaaahp.

Now, like RIGHT NOW, would be a great time to cancel your HBO subscription! Send a message to the shareholders that you don’t want the Paramount/Skydance merger. The Ellison family is a bunch of rightwingnuts. THE VOTE IS TOMORROW!

This is such a rich resource for anyone looking for artists who DEDICATEDLY rebuke using AI. You'll never have to worry about getting scammed. I've seen way too many "artists" doing commissions who are so clearly tracing AI or smearing over AI-genned images. Be safe out there... #HireHumanArtists

Been lagging on the cocktails! The hubs found a weird, simple one, but dang if it doesn't work. Equal parts mezcal (we used El Buho) and Amaro Montenegro. Chill, serve over a big cube. We added an orange peel for garnish and a little brightness. Ingeniously called the M&M. #creepyprettycocktails

Fashioned after Klimt's "Judith", my "Jude" has a similar message about kings... 5"x7", gold watercolor, graphite and colored pencil on paper #ImaginativeRealism #OriginalArt #Klimt #MixedMedia #DarkArt

Allllll the time...

Never get tired of looking at this delight! And I love how Julie's wrangling the media...

If you see this, post a knight 🗡️

Good news on the front for Fantasy and Science Fiction Narrative Art. A new museum in the works for Altoona and the genre community. Looking forward to seeing this open next year (hopefully)! www.altoonamirror.com/news/local-n...

Missed #ThirstyThursday due to a cold meds-induced brainfog, waaah. Better late than never always applies to cocktails, tho! Last week I made a delightful drink (from Death&Co.'s book) called The Broken Oath. Been feeling the mezcal lately... Recipe to follow...

Hey artists! Quote with your women art ✨️ 🦀♋️🌝 #WomenArt #TheFemaleForm #MixedMedia #ImaginativeRealism #GoddessArt

Swore I’d start a Thirsty Thursday post, featuring a favorite cocktail, but had to pop out of town. Found one at a Peruvian spot on our travels, tho: the Pisco Sour. I’m not certain what “pisco” is but dang, it’s tasty! And easy too. #ThirstyThursday #cocktails www.liquor.com/recipes/pisc...

We’re live and squirming, over at @everydayoriginal.bsky.social! What could be more romantic than eating worms? everydayoriginal.com/product/hell... #DarkArt #ImaginativeRealism #Folkcore #OriginalArt #AnimalArt

Coming up 2/4/26, o’er at @everydayoriginal.bsky.social, my thrice-yearly offering of fresh, spanking new original art! This one was super-fun and challenging, as I’m toying with incorporating watercolors (and color, gasp!) into my workflow. #DarkArt #OriginalArt #MixedMedia Little tease:

Artist animates their painting with AI. The gallery hosting his solo show reblogs it. The crowd gets peeved at both the artist and the gallery over the use of AI. The artist gets peeved that people are accusing him of … wait for it … using AI in his art. 😮🫠

These fine lads put out a single and I did the jacket arrrrrrt Check out Breakaway's 'The Bird and the Basilisk'! distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

Klimt homage in the works. All art is political. #MixedMedia #WIP #OriginalArt #NeverAI

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. Embarrassing, Mr. Gurney.

(checks the news after a day of writing) Well, fuck. (this is an evergreen post, alas)

First doodle of 2026. Weird sisters, unite 🌘 (It's kinda amazing how your brain wakes up when you draw. I was dopey af all day until I picked up a pencil...) Graphite on a tiny Artefex sample panel, sealed with matte varnish. #DarkArt #OriginalArt #FantasyArt #MiniatureArt

Day 23 #ArtAdventCalendar Creepy folk horror Christmas owl-creature :) 🦉😱 #folkhorror

Ahoy! An update! I feel your shocked faces... 😄 Won't slam folks with a huge art blast—and the digital art scene is still pretty frozen for me, due to continuing computer blues—so here, have a trad piece. Graphite and a little acrylic on canvas. Modeled by incandescentkiki @ IG. 🖤 #DarkArt

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

Had a fried computer-imposed time-out (and I keep forgetting about bsky) but here, have some marketing, lol! Just what you've been waiting for, I KNOW... @everydayoriginal.bsky.social Also, got a few prints rolling around: www.inprnt.com/gallery/cgri...

Had a marvelous time at @ixarts.bsky.social this past weekend! Returned home inspired, exhausted, but so very glad to be in the imaginative realism community. Back to work! #FantasyArt #SciFiArt #HorrorArt #DarkArt #OriginalArt

@cassiopeia7.bsky.social Just realized ‘Cat People’ is on Amazon Prime video and thought of yooooou 😊 (Watching now!)

Can you smell the ozone? Digitally dolled-up drawing for the Postcard Show at @brassworksgallery.bsky.social ! Coming in November... #WeirdLittleGuy #Drawing #OriginalArt #DarkArt #FantasyArt #MidwestGothic

Excited to introduce Vibes from Meta. Eat your slop, piggies!

Tripping the light fantastic at Illuxcon, in the Showcase this year! Who's gonna be there? #Illuxcon #ImaginativeRealism #FantasyArt #OriginalArt #NoAI

I need to make weirder art. Where my muses at?

Whenever someone questions market impacts of GenAi, show them this article. Make them read each heart breaking story. People’s livelihoods are being negatively impacted, by a tech that relied on the work of those same people to function at capacity. The whole thing makes me sick.

Remember the days when we all thought it would be so cool to be an Imagineer? Work for Disney, or the movies, doing fx or storyboards or concepting? What's the point anymore, when it seems like they're all such greedy, soulless cowards?

Post a witch, if you wish! #DarkArt #WitchyThings #Graphite #Digital

Gawd, I'm so glad I don't work for a big corporate conglomerate that'll can me for expressing an opinion. Especially one that is provable by fact.
