Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 18hMe and my paintings of various sizes. Some are brand new, some are old ones I fixed. I hope you like them. Check ‘em out on my site! nateseubert.com #fineart #contemporaryart #surrealism #oilpainting 0253
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Way too many people respond to injustice by blaming as a whole whatever group produced those who perpetrated it. That’s not breaking the cycle, it’s just pushing it along. Where do we go from there? How does anything change or improve? 010
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I rarely know who buys them, when they sell in a gallery... but the guy really wanted to talk to me about it, I guess. I'm not always sure the explanations I have are enough for people... but if I could put it into words, I'd write a story instead of making a painting. 050
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Rise - oil on canvas - 44x54 inches - October 2006 - private collection I finished this one 20 years ago. I seem to recall that it was purchased by a psychiatrist, from a long-gone gallery at Bergamot Station in Santa Monica, CA. #fineart #contemporaryart #surrealism #oilpainting 1110
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Ephemera - oil on canvas - 16x29 inches - October 2016 I finished this one 10 years ago. Secretary birds are fun to paint… I did a few. If you find yourself in Santa Fe, NM, check it out in person at Keep Contemporary gallery! keepcontemporary.com #fineart #contemporaryart #surrealism #oilpainting 081
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Wow, that's a good long life for a dog. I'm sorry for your loss. Winston made it to 15 and a half (we got him as a rescue when he was about a year old) before cancer got him. Pups are the very best. It's too bad with as much as humans have changed them, we couldn't give them longer lives... 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I'm far too committed to the ideals of anti-racism to not judge you by your Morrissey bumper sticker. (Because screw that racist piece of shit.) 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Thanks🙂. I’ll be sure to post a pic when it’s all finally done. 010
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Thanks🙂. Ithought it would be a healing process, sort of like hanging out with him, again. It didn’t quite work out that way. Also, I tend to go off in bad directions when stress is high… and, man, the past 2 years… 110
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Imagine what those numbers could be if we had a Dem who was actually promising to do popular things that would make life in this state better… 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Can we just keep arguing for another decade or so, til every clock we use is internet connected, and just slowly starts "falling back" a minute each day in the middle of the night from September-October, then do the reverse in the spring, so sunrise is never before 6 am and sunset isn't 6pm in June? 020
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 02/10/20262024 was garbage even before we lost Winston, our near constant companion for over 14 years. And then it got worse. I started this that year, and have gone back to it a few times. The closer the subject, the harder they are to paint... and doing so after he was gone was damn hard. Too hard... 020
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 02/10/2026This one was hard, and I never got it right. I think I might have finally figured it out! Winston will finally have the memorial he deserves. #fineart #contemporaryart #oilpainting 390
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Yeah, it’s fixed. Cost literally 3x what it used to 5 years ago, but it’s done. 😕 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 01/10/2026No painting, today… dealing with this shit instead 😞 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I only got these tires a cut weeks ago. I never got a nail in my tire until I started driving to downtown LA every day. Now, a few times a year. Garbage city. 200
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Given how we’ve used the military over the last quarter century, I’m honestly kind of ambivalent… I just hope no one tries to kill us while our guard is down. 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I started re-working this one from 2024, when all the others I was working on were wet. I think I got the last little bits done, tonight. So many wee dots! #fineart #contemporaryart #surrealism #oilpainting #losangeles 1133
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The place is basically 2 complexes w/ a parking lot in the middle. If it’s 1/2 empty, why not do project in stages, so no one has to leave (and be unlikely to return)? Temporarily move galleries to the other side while construction happens. We’ve lost too many of these spaces already. 011
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 29/09/2026We desperately need housing, here. I’m sure there are ways to build it that don’t destroy the few cultural institutions we have. 100
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It just feels like art is dying. www.latimes.com/california/s...latimes.comBergamot Station made Santa Monica an art mecca. Now, it could be replaced by affordable housingBergamot Station, the hub for artists, inches toward becoming Santa Monica low-income housing 100
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 26/09/2026When these paintings showed later in Denver, CO, a newspaper art critic called them “off-putting paintings in garish cotton candy colors.” I used that as a tag line for years. It was a group show, I was the only artist mentioned by name in the article. 010
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The Regrettable Need - oil on canvas - 48x52 inches - September 1996 I worked on this other image at the same time, sharing colors between them. Both were completed in September of 1996. I think I got $200. I did sell the original, later. 120
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The technology of the time didn’t allow for great reproduction (and I had no experience with that, yet), so the final result came out looking a lot different (and got cropped, for some reason). 110
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The Fix - oil on canvas - 48x48 inches - September 1996 - private collection. Thirty years ago, a band I knew asked me to make a painting for their record cover. I came up with something I liked a lot… and they liked, too. 191
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Deliver Us - oil on canvas - 14 inches - September 2011 - private collection I made this painting 15 years ago. I didn’t have it very long, as I recall. It went off to a happy, new home, which is the best thing they can do. #fineart #contemporaryart #surrealism #oilpainting 081
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Syracuse University has a bunch of originals of his that they used to pretty regularly show in the art building's gallery, when I went there. I was always happy to spend time with them. 021
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Dems are at least possibly swayed by public opinion. We’re going to need to do a lot of yelling & protesting…which sucks, but it’s better than letting it all just fall apart. 021
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 23/09/2026People don't want nice things? People just want to keep things going the way they are? People just want to keep watching tech bros and their pet politicians burn the future? I'm so old, I remember when a black man with a middle-eastern name couldn't possibly win the presidency... 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I mean… HRC got the most votes in ‘16. That’s not nothing. 010
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026“What did you do, over the summer?” Well… #art #fineart #oilpainting #losangeles 050
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026You should resign your office immediately, if you’re not interested in protecting the people of this state from the malefactors of great wealth. The people of California need and deserve better than a charlatan such as yourself in the office of Attorney General! 010
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Thanks for selling the workers of our state out to the billionaires. I hope you don’t have any plans to run for other offices, because you will never, ever get my vote again, after approving this wildly anti-competitive Paramount merger. 190
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Stop using their over-priced services that spy on you & turn you into a product. No one is coming to save us. We'll have to save ourselves. 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026...local jobs, that allowed people who weren't millionaires/billionaires to spend money in the local economy. Every fucking thing is becoming a struggle, unless you're rich. At some point, the rest of us need to stop complying. Stop buying their shit. Stop voting for their pet politicians. 100
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I've seen a lot less sales, for myself as well as other artists, since the writer's strike. I guess I'll see things get even worse, now that our useless Gov. Newsom pushed our unreliable Atty. Gen. Bonta to approve the wildly anti-competitive Paramount merger, which will cost thousands of jobs... 130
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Still don’t get how we didn’t have a great insurgent candidate in a wide-open gov race, w/ all that is happening in the country/world right now. Does our screwed up system in CA just not produce people like Mandani or AOC? Top of the ticket is just another grim choice between neglect & destruction. 150
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 21/09/2026The sitting mayor of LA, supporting the elimination of thousands of jobs in her city, right before a contested election. I hope she loses. I wish I could say the same for the scumbag gov candidate, but his opponent is worse… and our system allows no other option in the general. 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I don’t think it’s appreciated in other places just how many CA democrats are just republicans without the overt racism. Thanks for letting the rich do whatever they want to the rest of us, again! www.latimes.com/entertainmen...latimes.comParamount, attorneys general settle lawsuit, clearing a path for Warner Bros. mergerWith the agreement, California Atty. General Rob Bonta and his coalition plan to withdraw historic lawsuit that aimed to derail the $111-billion deal. 100
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Ah, Fine Art, home of the original gatekeepers. Screw those jerks. Art is art. Enjoy it or don't. Hassling other people for enjoying what speaks to them is pretty shitty. (I say that as a guy who makes and occasionally sells paintings that aren't made for commercial purposes.) 040
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Yet there are dems who somehow *don’t* think we should be pointing out how weird these guys are.. 000
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Ugh. I hope it’s not too bad, and over quickly. 011
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Covering those edges. I think this one might be done, too. #fineart #contemporaryart #surrealism #oilpainting 060
Nate Seubert @nateseubert.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Finally! Someone is actually listening to the vast, not-at-all-made-up number of human children clamoring for more pokes with needles! 010
