Hi, guys. This is Chris. Just wanted to say thank you to all who reached out, called, text, visited, & went to Chad’s funeral services. He had beautiful services. Chad was not sentimental, but would have loved the outpouring of love. As an update, for now, his Bluesky will be In Memoriam. 🙏

Dad and myself want to thank everyone for the love and support are receiving during this difficult time. To Chad’s friends, thanks for being his friend. 🫂❤️

Hi everyone, this is Chris (Chad’s brother). I am sorry to inform everyone that Chad suddenly passed away last night. We don’t know how or why, but we hope to get answers soon. Any prayers and positive energy will be needed in this difficult time. I will keep y’all posted on more info to come.

Post a song from the year you turned 12. — — I couldn’t pick one song, so I picked a soundtrack. This one is straight 🔥🔥🔥! It was a brilliant combo of techno and metal bands, and I was OBSESSED! #Spawn #SpawnTheMovie #ToddMcFarlane #ImageComics youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Saddened to hear about Peter David passing away. His comics were (and still are!) the most engaging superhero books that I’ve ever read. He made me a life-long fan of Miguel O’Hara and Havok (and the whole X-Factor team in their various incarnations under his tenures). RIP, legend.

Nothing peps up a weekend like getting a copy of a rare edition of a book in the mail and finding it to be inscribed by the author! #Folklore #WitchSky #Ghosts #Witches #Magic #Appalachia

I’m excited for it! 😊 #Disney #TronAres #Tron #TronLegacy youtu.be/9KVG_X_7Naw?...

So what if the man painted cozy cottages and made a fortune from it? Art critics are hilarious. Not all art needs to have some big, bullshit, overblown statement. www.bbc.com/culture/arti...

No words can ever repay all Mom did for me, but I will always carry her love in my heart. I can only hope to honor her memory by living with the same strength, grace, and love that she so freely gave. Thank you, Mom, for everything.

I hate how these streaming services with the ad tier level ask you, the viewer, to pick an “ad experience”. That’s just a slap in the face as well as making you choose your own punishment!

I really miss the days when I could just look at cool art and go "wow, cool" and share it instead of having to be an investigative detective every day.

My final version of my self-portrait, "39"! I have a DreamWidth Journal that I keep with longer commentary in it, if you're interested in reading it. The journal also chronicles the progress of this piece: chadblevins.dreamwidth.org/1827.html

New entry in my DreamWidth journal. A little frustrated with the progress on my self-portrait at the moment, but we’ll find a happy place soon. chadblevins.dreamwidth.org/866.html

I started up a DreamWidth journal. As an elder millennial, I really miss journals and blogs. Anyway, here’s a link to me restarting my art journey after taking a break for a very long time. I’ll post links to my entries here as I go. chadblevins.dreamwidth.org/707.html
