Just some random scariness for Halloween.

Boo and all that.

Look, I'll be the first to admit I've been feeling humbled by this nutsack's embrace of my work.

Seems inconsistent with his gilded Temu design aesthetic, but what can I say? He's a sophisticated patron of the arts!

An Indubitably Fancy Affair (2025)

Something for the Martian jet set.

Pro tip:

Don't try and walk on your hind legs like the human people, and you won't fall on your ass every time you're asked an uncomfortable question.

Because sometimes, apropos of nothing, a guy's gotta get off the extended, months long project train and make an impromptu abstract thingamadoodle, simply for the sheer fuck of it.

Not easy being an artist in 2025, having to compete with a daily tsunami of insipid AI bullshit.

So, here is some recycled biz to remind the world that I do in fact still exist, as it scrolls endlessly through hysterical videos of JD Vance romancing furniture and Stephen Hawking being brutalized.

Another shot of my background (minus color) from The Cruel Tutelage of Shaman Steve.

Best seen on my website here:

artvandlay.com/the-cruel-tu...

I go into length on process, meaning and motivations. Plus, you can see everything in glorious 4K and blow it all up to full size.

Check. It. Oot.

Isolated background shot from my latest, The Cruel Tutelage of Shaman Steve.

The Cruel Tutelage of Shaman Steve (2025)

Hot off the presses.

Will likely make an 8K render for big assed printing purposes, and possibly a little animated doodad as well, just for fun.

Kinda cycling back to my intense hatred for all things social media. The last couple of weeks, especially, it's just been an absolute pestilence that only serves to enrage me.

Anyway, I'm Art Van D'lay. I make art, hate Nazis, and dream of the day I will piss on Donald Trump's grave.

More disturbing to me than his assassination is how the mainstream media seems utterly cowed into whitewashing this troglodyte's legacy.

I won't participate in that, and I won't pretend to be the least bit busted up about his passing. Charlie Kirk was a very bad person.

Snap out of it, dipshits.

Added in a background element.

Full color treatment comes next.

The Cruel Tutelage of Shaman Steve (2025)

I'll be throwing some color on it now.

Happy Friday from the hardworking hands of Van D'lay Industries.

Still working on my new spooky guru fellow. Updates coming shortly.

In the meantime, here is a bit of a digital doodad unleashed upon the physical world in 2022 through the magic of my Form2 printer.

Painted by my crazy talented daughter, www.instagram.com/ani.makes.art/.

This is a little something I'm working on now. Still adding a few elements, and my plan is to do an alternate version as well in a very different context, but I'm just feeling good about him and wanted to share some WIP action for the (maybe...) three or four people who will actually see this.
August 4, 2025 at 6:42 PM
Working on more new biz that I hope to be able to share within the next couple of weeks.

Until then, let this serve as a proof of life.

The name is Art Van D'lay.

And on top of being a useless, despicable bag of shit by any reasonable metric, this addle brained ignoramus is, without question, a child fucker.

Thank you to the 48% of throwaway humans who voted for this horror. You've made America great again - for human traffickers & billionaire child fuckers.

Guess people aren't digging this one. Oh well. I like him.

Anyway, here are stills from both One Night in Bangkok: Opening Bell and Same Night in Bangkok: Three Minutes Later.

Enjoy.

Or don't.

Whatevs.

Same Night in Bangkok: Three Minutes Later.

Down, but not out. Bloodied, not beaten.

The crowd has even pelted our hero with dogshit & broken bottles. Rude, you say, & I agree; it’s no world for the faint of heart.

One Night in Bangkok: Opening Bell (2025)

Part One of a two-part thingamabob. Before and after, so to speak.

Just don't expect Marquis of Queensbury rules. This ain't that kind of a party. There's no sweet science on display here, no three knockdown rule in effect.

Part Deux coming tomorrow.

Guess I posted out of sequence. Here he is seen answering the opening bell. Yesterday's shots were of Round 2.

Some more new biz currently under construction.

You may or may not recognize him as the same fellow last seen smoking crack on a paint can two weeks ago.

Here we find him suited up for a typical day at the office.

Base and turnaround to come.

Haven't felt the need to post much of anything this week, but from the basement archives at Van D'lay Industries here is an eyeball in a fancy hat, flanked by Martian baubles.

Anyway, Fuck Fascism. We're toast. And I'm exhausted.
