claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 07/02/2025Overpainted a friend’s op shop painting (with a little glow in the dark surprise). #oilpainting #repainting #ufo #weird 1110
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Ok well my dog is called Yoshimi so I’m a little bit there 000
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Um I think that was the conversation you were having with someone else. 000
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025You’re correct on one count, and by god I’m more grateful for that every day x 100
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025The videos have been shared. It’s been well established that the movement is completely different. You know this, and yet you still share it, because it’s the strongest argument you’ve got. Which says so much, don’t you think? 140
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Best I can do right now is an unfinished Willem 030
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Happy with how this cheeky little Willem Dafoe is coming along, although I haven’t quite captured his full goblinishness #nosferatu #oilpainting 070
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 20/01/2025It’s like how every book about reducing stress starts with five chapters about how stress is killing your. DO YOU NOT KNOW YOUR OWN AUDIENCE!?! 1141
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Also an excellent Bowie album that year. I mean he also died, so yeah still not great, but could we get another Blackstar? 010
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 19/01/2025I was going to say you’ve missed the point, but then I realised that’s moot, because we all kind of make the point for ourselves, right? But I suspect the author here was intending to communicate something different to what you’ve unearthed, something I resonate with, and I’m neither rich nor famous 110
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Adding “TikTok” to the ever growing list of blocked words. 000
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 19/01/2025How do you…how do you be online and not know dril by now? 160
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 19/01/2025My biggest step was local lessons based on Watts Atelier style of education. Paint Coach on YouTube also very helpful. 000

claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 19/01/2025When walking on a forest trail, it often makes sense to take the same steps others have taken. But there’s a danger too, because overused steps can become worn down, slick and slippery. So the trick, then, is to know when to utilise the wisdom of the crowds and when to strategically diverge. 010

claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 18/01/2025To whomever now owns the Twin Peaks IP: no matter how much we beg, no matter how much we bargain, even if we are on our knees pleading with you, please do not make any more. #davidlynch 000

claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 17/01/2025If anything is trying to outrage me - either at it or on its behalf - that’s a switch off for me. 000
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 17/01/2025My partner at the time, who had given up on The Return early, asked me after the last episode, “Did you enjoy it?” I said, in a daze: “I don’t know.” “Well,” she said, “how do you feel?” I lay in bed with my eyes wide open. “I don’t know,” I said. “I actually don’t know.” 010
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 17/01/2025Great article. For me, The Return is my final experience of obsessive week-to-week TV watching. I would think about it constantly in between episodes, listen to podcasts and read analyses. It took over my brain in a way that bingeing a show can’t do. It also completely broke me. 100

claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 16/01/2025When I was a kid visiting Wellington for the first time, I was disappointed by the beehive. I thought it would be bigger and grander like the White House. As an adult I’m still disappointed by the beehive, for different reasons, but I no longer wish it was more like the White House. #newzealand 011

claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 16/01/2025Keep your eye on the donut, not on the hole. Thank you, David Lynch x 000
claytrongo.bsky.social @claytrongo.bsky.social · 16/01/2025I found some old wooden board and tried oils for the first time on something that wasn’t canvas. Felt weird. But kinda…good? #oilpainting #gollum #lordoftherings #lotr 070
