👋 Need a distraction? I pulled 10 names of famous cartoon characters out of a hat and then drew them from memory, without looking them up first. Often funny, sometimes disastrous, occasionally beautiful. Enjoy!

a collection of illustrated stamps of a postwoman's day

Cool poster — it appears to be Danish rather than Swedish (speaking as a Norwegian)

A photograph of a wall-mounted paper towel dispenser in a staff bathroom, with a Post-it note stuck to the machine that says “overly sensitive, do not use.” The machine has a single sheet of paper towel coming out of it approximately 10 feet long, puddled into a trashcan on the floor

Dark newsprint collage centered around a woman's torso in a white dress, surrounded by strips of some kind of organic/biological red mass, a checkered ceiling pattern, and near-black voids.

Collage details

Newsprint photo collage featuring a woman from the chest down, wearing a glamorous dress, surrounded by various textures and patterns and shapes, including three bright red strips.

Here's a third collage from my series utilizing mostly dark areas of photos printed in newspapers. The strategically positioned diagonal stripes are actually from a photo of the southern border wall. [ #collage #art #artist ]

Closeups for a more textured look!

Newsprint collage featuring mostly dark areas and graphic/photographic stripes, facets of fabric, and a central headless female figure wearing a glamorous dark dress.

My newsprint collage obsession continues. You can watch me piece together this one and four more tiny works of art here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hY9_...

An interesting goth-adjacent collage I made from dark newsprint imagery. [ #art #collage ] Watch me put it together in this super-chill YouTube video: youtu.be/QyiwhInSKt8

What is “I asked for a brace and got brass / it’s a thousand times sad / every leg of mine’s bad / a sliding note says I am on my ass?”

Who is Tony Hawks?

I wonder: Could some country set up very artist-friendly, AI-hostile copyright laws, and then could all artists register and publish their work in that country, sort of an opposite of how all companies are based in Delaware or all ships in the Bahamas?

This was an animated loop I made of a sci-fi-esque machine that detects light and dark areas in an image through code. I'm posting it here as if that makes any kind of sense.

Do you ever smile because you just heard something funny on your podcast just as you’re glancing at your phone to wake it up but then the face recognition fails because you don’t usually smile and then you think about how sad that seems and so then you’re back to your normal face, the sad one, so th
