This week's penguin: So galleries aren't breaking down your door to be the first to show these?

#penguins #pengcognito #cartoon #ArtGallery
Page 1: A penguin in a purple hat and a penguin in a straw hat are waddling on a cobblestone park path from the left. A penguin in a wide-brimmed floppy green beach hat waddles towards them from the right. Purple hat: How's it going? Green hat: Great! Except for my art isn't selling! Straw hat: You do art? Green hat: Kinetic hanging sonic sculptures made from ethically sourced faunal detritus! Straw hat: So, wind chimes made from roadkill...? Green hat: Po-tay-to, po-tah-to. Page 2: The penguins have stopped waddling to chat. Straw hat: OK, but how many galleries have you submitted to? Or juried shows? Green hat: That would be crass, tacky, and vulgar! If I don't wait to be properly discovered by art scouts, I'll never be considered a Legitimate Artist. Page 3: The penguins are still conversing. Purple hat: By the way, my gallery show is opening tonight! Green hat: You have a gallery show?!? Purple hat: Well, yes. Straw hat: Legitimately! Page 4: The penguin in the green hat is waddling off to the left. The other two penguins are facing each other and talking. Green hat (waddling away): *hmpf* Purple hat: "Art scouts"...? Straw hat: I notice you didn't mention it's a members show at the gallery you belong to, that a few hundred other artists are also showing, and all you had to do to get a piece accepted was show up with it...? Purple hat: Well where's the fun in that?

Page 1: A penguin in a lavender hat and a penguin in a purple hat are standing on a paved path by the seawall. A penguin in a green hat and a penguin in a magenta hat are waddling towards them from the right. Green hat: I read your post on BeakBook. Very thoughtful! Purple hat: Thanks! Did I convince you? Green hat: Welllll.... Magenta hat: You did make a lot of solid points! Green hat: I'm still waiting to see if you convinced anyone else though. Magenta hat: Same! Page 2: The two waddling penguins have stopped to continue chatting. Purple hat: Never let a well-reasoned argument get in the way of social proof, I always say. Green hat: You do? Purple hat: No. Page 3: The two waddling penguins are continuing waddling off to the left. The penguin in the lavender hat and the penguin in the purple hat are conversing. A penguin in a blue hat is waddling towards them from the right. Lavender hat: OK, I didn't read your post yet. Is it still about AI just being one part of your art-making toolbox? Purple hat: No, that trawler has sailed, I'm afraid. Lavender hat: Then what? Page 4: The penguin in the lavender hat and the penguin in the purple hat are still conversing. The penguin in the blue hat has stopped to overhear the conversation and is looking up at a word balloon from that conversation. Purple hat: I refuse to stop using the Comic Sans font in my cartoon. Lavender hat: So they have a point then. Blue hat (thought): I can't believe I never noticed that.

Twilight Cranes Reflected in Misty Waters

#GenArt #SynthArt
My Alt-text is for screen readers; it is not a prompt.
Two cranes stand in calm water at twilight, facing each other with their reflections mirrored in the lake. A glowing sun sets behind misty trees and distant mountains, casting soft pink and purple hues across the sky and water. The scene is serene and tranquil.

Cosmic Horses At Twilight

#GenArt #SynthArt
My Alt-text is for screen readers; it is not a prompt.
A surreal scene shows two horses walking along a winding dirt road in a twilight mountain valley. Above them, a vast radiant bloom of overlapping translucent colors glows like a cosmic rose, casting light across the misty landscape. The artwork blends natural detail with abstract cosmic imagery.

Fox Beneath Twin Suns

#GenArt #SynthArt
My Alt-text is for screen readers; it is not a prompt.
An arctic fox with orange and white fur sits on a cliff overlooking a river winding through a misty mountain valley. Above, two suns--one golden and one pale blue--shine through stylized clouds in a dreamy, stained-glass-style sky. Trees, rocks, and glowing orbs frame the serene, surreal scene.

This week's penguin: If I had a gallery, its scruples rating would be "chaotic neutral."
pengcognito.com/index.php?id...
#penguins #pengcognito #cartoon #FineArt
Page 1: A penguin wearing a black hat is a customer in the show booth of an artist penguin who is wearing a purple hat. They are looking at a sculpture of fish swarming on top of a translucent turquoise vase. The booth is full of more odd looking fish themed sculptures, on stands and hanging from the roof of the tent. Customer penguin: It's pretty and all, but what do you do with it? Artist penguin: Hang on to it until it increases in value! And some unscrupulous artists have even faked their own "permanent unavailability" just to make that happen! Page 2: The artist penguin is holding out a sculpture of a goofy looking smiling fish that appears to be made of heavy rusted iron. Customer penguin: Have you ever done that? Artist penguin: Why no, I would never admit to having done that. Moving on, a piece that's hefty and/or pointy will be useful in a zombie apocalypse. Page 3: The artist penguin has put the the goofy iron fish sculpture back on its stand. Customer penguin: So you don't have any actual good reason for - Artist penguin (interrupting): Studies show you can charge a lot more for your mediocre Seabnb vacation rental if there is Fine Art in it. Page 4: The customer penguin is waddling off to the left, having purchased the multi-fish vase. The artist penguin is retrieving another of the same sculpture from behind one of the stands. Artist penguin (thought): Works every time...
