Car sticker after 6 years

Been thru sun, rain, fire storm, snow and desert sandy wind.

I doubt he’ll hang on much longer so this is his legacy

General thoughts on ai?

I’m in SD and nobody can do anything without relying on some ai bullshit. The smart people in corporate use it , the artsy people at street fairs use it, popular local “musicians” use it at shows people pay for, the lonely people use it as therapy and try to pass off chatgpts advice as their own lived experience.

There seems to be no large group/genre of people that are truly repulsed by any and all usage of it. Not one business is completely devoid of it down here and I’m so exhausted.

I’ll be moving back soon and in my brain my hometown “knows better” but now I’m realizing it might be the same/worse.

How much have you noticed Santa Rosa/ Sonoma county embracing the AI epidemic?

What else have you seen majorly change in the last few years?

Hi I updated my doodle + a poem(?) 🫶

Sometimes I wish I had someone to teach me, sometimes I’m just grateful to grow at all.

Bottom sketch; I feel so in touch with nature.. but never quite human

“Goldfish brain”

Sometimes you’re hit with a thought that has to come to life immediately; voila

Take care of yourself today 🫶

Becoming an adult is like being forcefully handed a newborn.

I struggle to take care of myself and a lot of times the only way I can is when I envision myself as my own daughter, would I want “her” to not eat? Would I tell “her” she isn’t beautiful? Why would I tell myself these things and leave my own needs unmet?

Hopefully I’ll get the energy to turn this sketch into a better conveyed story but for now, here it is

  • also trying to figure out how to draw a baby me and then just drawing a blob with bangs is so funny to me

1: where I’m leaving off for the night 2: where I started today 3: reference

I’m feeling pretty good about the rendering lower 3rd of this painting but I’m struggling with the lighter mountains in the background. I don’t want them too detailed but I definitely can’t leave them as they are lol

Any words of encouragement/wisdom are appreciated!

I went thru years of depression where I couldn’t/didn’t make anything at all. I didn’t even start the ideas to finish later.. now I’m in a season of life where I try to at least get out the semblance of my creative thoughts, to be interpreted and finished by a future self I’ve not met yet.

This is how it feels to be in bed all day even though I know good things are happening outside and you just need to open the door and step out.
