Ready for the new “Buffy: The Art Book” I’m developing with other talented artists, writers and maybe some guest cameos along the way? Well, things are moving and our Kickstarter is coming together! Major goodies and incentives to be announced soon. Stay tuned for more. Specifically at 1pm! 👀

I’ve seen many 1/6 Scale figures come/go with varying levels of likeness accuracy. I’m not sure this one hits the mark. It might be the expression or fullness of the face, but something feels off on this one.

As someone who loves Film/Television and creating artwork that expresses these stories with soul, this breaks my heart. AI is the killer of art and emotion. Don’t believe me? Tell me that these succeed in capturing anything but soulless glitz. A prompt doesn’t create art, people do. 😡 #AIRuinsArt

Let’s try this out! Post your answers below and I’ll post results a bit later today. This psychological test uses eyes to determine a person's emotional state which presents participants with pictures and asks them to identify the emotion being expressed, often used to assess emotional intelligence.

Throwback to my piece for @galleries1988 for their group show inspired by #archiecomics. This piece was such a pleasure to create! I wanted to infuse a 1950s Fashion style with a bit of tongue-in-cheek melding of realism and the style of the comics themselves. #Archie #Gallery1988 #Riverdale

“Emilia Pérez” was a film that acts as an exploration on the spectrum of humanity. It’s passion shines through it’s 3 female leads. I also loved the way music/performance was weaved into the film. Watch, if not only for the fierce performance of lead trans actor Karla Sofía Gascón. Bravo!

Hot Take because someone ticked me off on the subject earlier, so here’s my opinion: Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s “Once More, With Feeling” Musical Episode > Star Trek: Strange New World’s “Subspace Rhapsody” Musical Episode.

New Years Eve/Day is always a difficult time to navigate after losing my mom, to her battle with cancer on this day years ago. Memories of the good and the life-altering sadness tend to fight one another for their seat at the table. I miss and love you Mom, wherever you may be.
