Art-studio move day 1.5 was a big win, but the mister and I were so tired that we went to bed at 8pm. Now we're wide awake at 3:30 am and I'm grilling weird little tortilla pizzas.
bright but messy warehouse basement art studio with randoms chairs, tables and paintings lounging about.Four tortilla mini pizzas on a cast iron grill, with red sauce, grilled mushrooms and melted cheese on top.

SECURITY BREACH
It's Jimmy, a very large orange and white tabby cat. I took the lid off the (then clean ) red enameled dutch oven and he immediately climbed in. He's looking straight up at us and he is adorable.

This is just the undermess of a new painting so it's way too early to say this, but if I get my way it will be some sort of abstracted Widow's Bay situation. And I may have a title in mind, which is the kiss of death (TOO SOON) so I'll try to set that aside in the back of my head and paint.
A 2 foot by 2 foot canvas on an easel, with a roughly paintbrushed mark first layer in stormy blue and grays in the "sky" and a mix of tans, grays, deep prussian blues in the craggy-shaped bottom.

AP Stylebook warns against anthropomorphizing AI systems: “Avoid language that gives them human characteristics… Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.”
APStylebook @APStylebook

Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects.
Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.

leetle baby paintings, made by me, a big baby
A row of 5 abstract paintings leaning on a white wall. Five more lie flat in front of them. I'd call two of them remotely beehive adjacent, one is blue and moody with the word SQUASH stenciled across the top, another is all warm gooey pinks and rusts with organic shapes and tiny dots, and one is quite landscapey in unlandscapey colors.

today i'm working on this
a 2 foot by 2 foot absctract painting on an easel. It's ... uh, well it's kind of a landscape? maybe, in a very abstract sense. It's rough, raw, energetic. It has lots of translucent layers and a gold and rust backdrop on the bottom 2/3 with pale pink, violet and other colors in shapes and drips. blue drips. there's a "sky" acros the top third of layers of tan and white and yellow with sort of a roughly drawn lemon that might be the sun.

I am, I do not mind saying, an absolute slut for logos with creative use of negative space.
The Pittsburgh zoo and ppg aquarium logo, with the heads of a gorilla and a lioness made by the negative space beneath a spreading acacia tree.The Electro Domstici logo, with a two-pronged electrical plug forming the D and the gaps between the bars of the capital E.The guild of food writers logo, a downward facing fountain pin nib with the gap between the tines shaped like a dinner spoon.The Hartford Whalers logo, a green w with a blue whale tale above it, forming an H in the negative space between them

We cooked! Sort-of-pozole, refried black and kidney beans, rice, guacamole, flour tortillas.

A vertical rectangular abstract painting in fuchsia pink and brown with dketcy linework in white and yellow. In the background, somewhat buried and written backward, I've stenciled DON'T BE HENRY KISSINGER.

I feel like people who consider themselves hardcore tech types and/or hard-nosed skeptics immune to cons like mysticism are much, much more vulnerable to being bowled over by the feeling of being spoken to by an entity outside themselves that somehow knows their thoughts.
