Some of my favorite sketches of late

Entropy: everything breaks down eventually

“Brace Ourselves” this was from October when the Supreme Court announced their chosen cases for the year.

A little sketch

By the end of the meeting

Going off-assignment at a drawing workshop

Dog lying on the floor, snoot up close.

Quality canine content? Sure, here’s more Rocket. (Am I supposed to tag @darthbluesky.bsky.social for posts like this?)

Taking an epic figure workshop with Misha (@ keesh_mesh on IG) and learning so much!

Here’s my first little attempt.

Play-time with charcoal and white pastel

I did a little study of a cave paintings and experienced how they are way more intricate than you’d expect

Lyra’s always so sleepy

My grandmother lived to be 102.

When I asked what her secret was, she said, “God’s punishing me.”

“Nothing short of survival is at stake.” - someone more eloquent than me

“And instead come together for the good of all.

“Which way the pendulum swings depends on whether the masses of people in this world can overcome

Their proud instinct to stick to themselves

“The moment is ripe for renewal.

Bathroom graffiti is my fav! Spotted in the wild!

“Memory” charcoal and earth-based oil on canvas

Like and repost this for the good of humanity

I would love to paint a mural but am hampered by my crippling fear of heights :(

Here’s What Happens When Your Lawyer Uses ChatGPT A lawyer representing a man who sued an airline relied on artificial intelligence to help prepare a court filing. It did not go well.

I keep saying the real AI risk is people mistaking fancy autocomplete as actual intelligence. This is more likely to cause problems than ChatGPT suddenly get self aware and start dropping nukes and building Terminators.

Tbh we could do worse

I fits!
