For now, the light of the year reaches its crescendo, with heat and cicada buzz and storms aplenty. Soon, the winds will change and our dances soften, into quiet contemplation with room for stories and reflection.

Could AI do this? The foil of a finished piece next to initial sketches really illuminates the magic of human artists.

Let AI replace your mindless tasks of daily drudgery if it calls so sweetly to you. You must resist though, resist with all you can, when it offers to replace your still beating heart - your art - that human fluttering of feathers and wonder. AI devours and is never satisfied.

Immersed in 19th century mermaid sightings, reported on the Susquehanna River; legends of a black haired woman, staring out from the muddy waters.

Illustrator and fantasy art-and-writer friends: I'm collecting (very!) short stories to put into a miniature little free library that I'm building this week. Do you have a very brief legend, fable, nonsensical rhyme, etc that you could type up and send me? Let me know! 💖

Artists worktable with a metal ruler, a cup of coffee, a paper sketch of a little free library on chicken legs, a couple round pieces of wood, two mechanical pencils and a green circle stencil template.

Oh wait I totally have a thing for this 😆 The Saint of Tavern Style (the true Chicago-style pizza) is pleased. Blessings on your corner slices tonight. (graphite, 2022, drawn for "Pizza for Everyone")

Graphite drawing: a saint figure with a pizza for a head, holding a staff with a bell and a tiny pig sits by the saint's feet. The pizza is cut "tavern style" and one of the tiny corner pieces floats above the saint's hand raised in like a blessing or something.

This palette is wind through curtains on a moonlit night and the air smells of wet earth, but your handkerchief is stained with a single drop of violent scarlet.
