I’ve been having tough month and I found paint in my apartment and made some bad art.
I feel better now.
(The background is supposed to be blue violet, but my webcam and lighting sucks.)
I should stop drawing characters floating in blank spaces and do something more elaborated;;;
World’s Most Beautiful Abandoned Places
Italian product manager and web designer Francesco Mugnai recently added a collection of images to his blog touting some of the most beautiful images of abandoned spots and modern ruins that he’d ever seen. The images Mugnai has captured come from empty castles, shuttered power plants, and dilapidated churches around the world. From a sunken yacht in Antarctica to a forever-closed amusement park in Japan, these images all make up a sort of anti-phoenix; rather than rising as new from the ashes, these husks remain preserved in decomposition, forcing viewers to confront the strange beauty of ruination.
Sometimes i forget that i live among these beautiful thkng, this is why i need to travel the world
I NEED to go to that third place…so incredible!

My fascination with the complexity and originality of our subconscious minds began in my childhood. I have always had a tendency toward overly analytical thinking, a strong desire for perfection, and a meticulous need for detail and closure.
My earlier works allowed me to travel to other realms by creating secret hideouts existing in both idealized landscapes and empty atmospheres. Although my invented spaces might appear idealized, whimsical and light hearted, they still contain the lingering remnants of my anxiety.
There is a weird irony in my attempt to elude my own analytical thinking. I paint to escape reality and the myriad of thoughts that fill my mind. However, I have recently discovered that my painting process is obsessive in itself. I gravitate toward miniature paintbrushes, because they allow me to painstakingly execute the tiny textures, patterns, and designs that I find so enticing. In response to this realization, my recent works, Fly on the Wall, and The Garden, depict an amplified and intentional focus on detail, which tends to be more psychologically charged, as well as chaotic. These pieces embrace the notion of pre-occupation rather than trying to escape it.
My friend wanted a picture of cats and potatoes.
This is what he got.
Also I was listening to Catsongs by Tom Milsom while making this masterpiece.
Alright, weeks of sculpting, pattern making, casting. Painting etc etc… I at last have created the first of a series of species of Fluttershy’s poor tortured woodland creatures. This is a squirrel. Next up will be a white rabbit.
