QRP with your skull art 💀 I have a lot of skull art, but this is my recent(ish) fave. I made it for the Omaha Post-it Show in May last year. #art #postitart #skull #acrylicpaint #ink #illustration #bindweed #gardening #acrylicpainting #traditionalart #darkart #mixedmedia #postit #stickynote

I can turn off my phone but I can't stop my brain from doomscrolling. Page is from July 2020, but sadly still applies. lifethroughjournals.com/portfolio/fi... #art #acrylicpainting #traditionalart #artjournal #visualjournal #selfportrait #illustration #mixedmedia #acrylicpaint #ink #sketchbook

An art journal spread about another of my fave horror movies @shmoemusic.bsky.social has shown me, Un couteau dans le coeur (Knife+Heart). Such a beautiful but harrowing film. #artjournal #acrylics #sketchbook #mixedmedia #horror #slasher #illustration lifethroughjournals.com/portfolio/in...

Such a great film! I'm not the biggest horror fan but @shmoemusic.bsky.social curates movies he thinks I'll like, and this is definitely in my top 10! #horror #cuckoo

The entire archive of CDC datasets can be found here. HUGE shoutout to data archivists- this work is important 👏🙌🏻 archive.org/details/2025...

Artifacts and materials are not people, and datasets are not lives, but if you're in need of haven or hard drive for the works of transgender materials, you got a free consult, anonymous or otherwise, from me. DMs open

Still in the process of moving ~1000 art journal pages back to my website. Just added a journal from early 2020 and saw this page. I feel like I could have made this any time in the last 5 years. #art #traditionalart #artjournal #sketchbook #unreal #portrait lifethroughjournals.com/portfolio/co...

Today was hard and everyone was feeling it. BUT I went to a National Day of Racial Healing event that gave me some hope. We are going to keep doing the work. Page from June 2017 lifethroughjournals.com/portfolio/sk... #artjournal #illustration #art #traditionalart #sketchbook #mixedmedia #painting

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

interviewer asked Dax Riggs "why did you feel now was the right time to drop new music?" he said "no real reason. i just realized the world was ending"

Dax Riggs sings like he’s been to hell and back—and maybe he has. His latest is our Album of the Day. daily.bandcamp.com/album-of-the...

I no longer believe art can save the world, but I believe still that it can save me. So in the face of chaos, misinformation, hatred & ignorance, I'm going to make more art, experience more, share more, pay for more & publish more. I started this in darkness & it'll continue to be my light. 🖤🤍

Hi! I've been struggling with where to post my art recently and thought I'd give Bluesky a go. Hoping to find some like-minded art journalers/artists to connect with! Here is a summary of what I made in 2024 😊 #artjournal #sketchbook #gelprinting #postitart #portrait #drawing #illustration #journal
