EPSTEIN LATEST: In light of what we released last week from my staff's investigation, I'm handing Trump's DOJ a ready-made case with seven different lines of investigation for them to follow the money on Jeffrey Epstein.

What I've been up to. These furby studies have been fun and challenging. I'll post more later. #furby #portraitart #portraitpainting #nostalgiacore #oilpainting #traditionalart

Current project #oilpainting #portraitart #portrait #workinprogressart #traditionalart #art #realism #popart #gummies #oldgregg #mood #vibes #artonbluesky #painting #artwork #artist #candy

I did a few more details and now it's done! Miravelle 💚🩷💛💜 I put a lot of work into making this being. #furby #customfurby #fantasyart #pastelgoth #dragon #unicorn #mood #furbybaby #sparkles #art

Find me on stage, where I said some things about marine CO₂ removal. 🌊

Made my first custom furby from a busted and raggedy looking baby furby. Now she's a work of art instead of just broken. Her motor is seized up even after oiling. I based this idea off of what I would have loved as a kid. I liked my unicorns, cats, and fantasy stuff. #furby #furbybaby #furbyfandom

Attempting a seascape study. So far I think it's going well but I can always mess it up! Letting it dry before working some more. I'd like to keep it loose but I know myself. #artstudy #artistproblems #oilpainting #painting #artwork #seascape #pleinair #pnw #ocean #art #artonbluesky #pacific #wip

Take me back! #y2k #furby #millenium #2000s

I may be up to 23 furbies now. There's a few more I'd like but they're a bit spendy. Casually looking for a reasonable priced peacock boom that I used to have. #furby

I still need to go back in and make the eyes sparkle, but it's almost finished. #furby #portraitart #furbyart #90s #nostalgia #oilpainting #painting #artwork #artist #popart #portrait #traditionalart #tradionalartist #wip #workinprogressart #art #petportrait #albino

I don't think I'm the k8nd of artist that can finish a piece in one go. I'll go back and finish this once the paint dries. Doing some studies from a vintage art mag. #oilpainting #waltertfoster #painting #landscape #landscapepainting #art #workinprogressart #oregon #wip #70s #artstudy #artcritique

Some various furby portrait studies in different stages of completion. #furby #portraitart #portrait #art #popart #traditionalart #realism #portraitpainting #stilllife #workinprogressart #painting #oilpainting #artstudy #petportrait #90s #fineart #lowbrowart #adhd #throwback

Going to the postal protest. My mom's a letter carrier. It's been a good job to raise a family on. One of the few left without a college degree. #protest #postoffice #resist #protestsign #tesler #lettercarrier #usps

Art study I did from a 70s vintage art tutorial. #artstudy #art #oilpainting #landscapepainting

I know my bio says I don't do commissions. That's because I find them stressful and I want to do my own art. If I agree to do a commission, it is rare. I'm going to lay out my rules and pin this post so I can link people here first. Scroll my replies for more info on how I expect things to go.

Not quite done with this study but here's where I'm at. Now to let the paint dry before I go into it more. #artprocess #oilpainting #artstudy #stilllife #traditionalart #furby #furbyart #90s #realism #art #painting #artist #workinprogressart #90stoys #leopardprint #fashionista #popart

Going back to this guy. I let him sit for a year out of frustration. #oilpainting #portraitart #portrait #workinprogressart #romantisism #painting #artwork #artistproblems #perfectionist #adhd #traditionalart #art #artnouveau #pastelgoth #realism #fantasyart #mutedcolors #fashioninspo #ootd

Another furby painting. I painted over a 7-Eleven cup study. Now I kinda want to make the furby 7-Eleven themed in the painting. I may customize a broken furby with a ruined skin later. I wouldn't ruin this cute guy. I'm usually not a fan of ruining vintage stuff. #oilpainting #furby #art #painting

Finished, make might mess with her shadow, but it's pretty much done. #furby #oilpainting #art #painting #artwork #artist #stilllife #stilllifepainting #90s #xennial #throwback #furbies #traditionalart #oregonartist #popart

Decided to try out a still life today. I am happy with it so far. Taking suggestions on background color or scene. #furby #90s #oilpainting #painting #stilllife #art #traditionalart #artist #portrait #timelapseart #aughts #classicalart #nostalgia #90score #workinprogressart #artcritique

I'm a huge reddit user and the new shit they implemented is very disappointing. They now send you a warning if you've upvoted something they don't like. Doesn't even say what I upvoted. Probably something related to the Mario bros. Tips for using lemmy as a bad at tech person. #reddit #lemmy

New Furby because I guess it's my new obsession/distraction! #furby

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Got this one working. #furby #refurb #90s #nostalgia

Firings are happening right now at the National Science Foundation. Essential staff are being cut. This isn’t about the budget. If it was, they’d be going after the military (17%) or state appropriations (38%). NSF is 0.7% of the federal budget. All federal employees make up only 4% of the budget.

Another art study from a 70s vintage art tutorial book. I know I'm going to mess this up because it's starting out strong. Oh well gotta learn somehow! #underpainting #artist #oilpainting #artistproblems #painting #landscape #landscapepainting #pleinair #artstudy #workinprogressart #impressionism

Remember when Trump promised to “protect” women? This is *how* he is protecting women… …a sexual predator helping another sexual predator Republicans want to silence women’s voices because we are the *real* protects of women and children www.ft.com/content/3f95...

Donald Trump is urging a foreign government to relax restrictions on Andrew Tate, a right-wing influencer charged with human trafficking and rape.

Elon Musk's DOGE team of misfits have fired everybody at the Federal Aviation Administration ✈️ who is a probationary employee Thinking they have got rid of all the new hires It turns out many of these were experienced technicians, recently promoted and were on probation for their new senior role

The contemporary world's out-of-balance yin-yang by French illustrator David Revoy. Art is often a lens that allows us to see the reality better... but than again, some are blind and deaf to art. The modern Vandals.

Reality Winner staring in disbelief. But don’t worry. They only gave the world read-only access. Plus they saved Gabbard from having to funnel it to Putin. Meanwhile, the Hillary's emails folk think broadcasting our classified info is great. www.rawstory.com/elon-musk-do...

Working on a study from a thrifted 70s art book. I really like the art style from this era. I have to let it dry before finishing the final details. #artstudy #painting #oilpainting #art #traditionalart #thrifted #workinprogressart #timelapseart #westernart #timelapsepainting #desert #sunset #70s

It snowed! I was hoping so much it would. I just wanted one beautiful snow day since we hardly get snow where I'm from. Of course it means I need to walk to 7-Eleven and get a coffee! #snowday #snow #snowflake #snowsounds #fluffysnow #7eleven

Generally, I like yo take videos of my art because uploading high-quality photos online doesn't seem as safe as an artist. #artonbluesky #art #oilpainting #artist #romantisism #classicalart #realism #artnouveau #traditionalart #fantasyart #painting #portrait #ethereal #portraitpainting #pastel

I think tiktok is censoring content so posting my art here. #americanartist #popart #americanculture #tiktok #america #culture #Canada #tariff #absurdism #liminalcore #liminalspaces #usa #sophisticated #lowbrow #highbrow #painting #oilpainting #portraitart #portrait #art #traditionalart #realism

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

95%done on this one. Let paint dry and then I can do the final touches. #oilpainting #painting #artwork #cityscape #liminalspaces #fallout #liminalcore #art #americanculture #landscapepainting #dusk #traditionalart #sunset #sunrise #oregonartist #oregon #sketch #wip #workinprogressart #timelapseart

I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers 2 yrs ago he won the Berkeley AI Hackathon But in 2000 won the HackGT7 with a ballot altering program called BallotProof Here's the deep dive that he couldn't scrub....

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

WATCH‼️‼️‼️ ELON. HACKED. THE. ELECTION.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

I won juror's choice in 2023 at my local mayors art show. Liminal American. A take on my culture, in response to someone trying to insult me. Thought it was funny! #oilpainting #painting #portrait #portraitpainting #traditionalart #liminalspaces #artist #liminalcore #7eleven #aburdist #americana

Another eh study, still productive for improvement at least. #artstudy #cowboy #desert #sunset #oilpainting #painting #landscape #landscapepainting #dusk #art #timelapseart #traditionalart #cowboycurtis #shart
