Took a class, got a cert! Funasaka-sensei was so patient. He's 86 this year. We asked him what exercises he did to keep the ailments of an artist's life at bay. (Sharon and I are both riddled with back aches and repetitive-stress injuries.) "I just take walks," he replied. #printmaking

Made my first-ever woodcut print. A combination of cheap plywood block; inexpert carving (the monkey's fur was cut too shallow); and heavy-duty baren meant the details of my spectacled langur disappeared into the ink 1/

The clearest, most prescient, most eloquent critics of Zionism have always been Jewish: 'Ask yourself, is “Arabs out” not the very same slogan as “Juden raus”?' Jacob Pat, writing against exclusionary Zionism, and for Bundism---socialism, secularism, "hereness". www.derspekter.org/letters-on-z...

Seeing news coming out of the US (nannies getting detained in front of children; troops arresting veterans; years of active cruelty against trans folk and women now) and Western rationalisations of Israel attacking Iran ("oh they are evil, they hate woman and queer people") is really whiplashy.

Rapt in attention: Sharon watches and assists master printmaker Yoshisuke Funasaka in turning the bamboo rope she spent two days making into a baren---basically a hand press for woodcuts. (We would've never been able to afford a handmade baren normally; they cost thousands!) 1/

So… does Iran have a right to defend itself?

Art not need always be about pain---but today, it is. Sharon and I have spent the last two days turning strips of bamboo skin into rope, which will then form the basis for a traditional Japanese baren--ie: relief-printing tool for woodcuts. Our fingers are abraded red raw.

A few things 1. "genAi is a transformative work" - this lawsuit proves repeatedly how that's not the case, Midjourney makes exact copies 2. "they're going to settle!" for what? Disney and Universal want blood, not dollars 3. There's no way to unring this bell, you can't untrain these models

I spent years of my life studying how people bury their dead (or burn them, or what have you), and it was nice to revisit that a little bit for my zine The Tome of Tombs. It's not really a tome, but I love alliteration. It may be a sickness. james-holloway.itch.io/the-tome-of-...

Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen. This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple European citizens on board. Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

The crew of the Madleen, a ship carrying humanitarian aid, are now hostages of Israel.

Sketches from my home group's Ravenloft campaign: + The wedding dress we made for the frankenbride Vasilka; + Auntie, party sorceress, wading into the pool at Kresk, moments before it exploded. (Work has been going slow for me, because of personally issues. Games are a balm.) #sketchpractice

Eye of the Aeons, another Troika 1:5 adventure. I want to say this series is the best stuff @melsonian-arts-council.itch.io is putting out right now, but they make a lot of good stuff. Anyway, the third book in this line of adventures, and it’s looking good.
