SHE’S FINISHED! My 5-foot-long Enterprise D oil painting is complete after nearly 100 hours of work!

I remember being 13 years old or so and trying to draw her and it was so hard, and all I wanted was to be able to do something like this. Truly a dream come true. 🥰🖖

Why hasn't someone put some kind of proxy on that person's phone so they think their hate posts for basically everyone is going out - but it isn't. This would be easy to do, wouldn't it?

Tonight's cultural experience brought to us by the Simon & Garfunkel Story at the #Madison #Wisconsin Overture Center for the Arts. These guys are GOOD!

Just visited the National #WWII museum in #NOLA, and as a 'certified WWII nerd' I was extremely impressed. As a #vfx nerd they also did wonderful things with their '4d' theater productions - never seen anything like that. Now one of my favorite museums in the world.

Do you think some zombies would need to wear glasses to find brains to eat / do other zombie stuff?

I see New Orleans is going to be in the 60s this weekend! (While it's in the single digits here). But only 40 NEXT weekend when I'm there! 🤬

@fxtech.com Look what this guy made with Elastic Reality!
I did flipbooks for all of the Animorphs covers I did, but they appeared in black and white and very small, so I am posting them here so you can see them large and in color. No AI here--just Elastic Reality and painting. You can buy a signed print of this cover here:

I absolutely love designing new code. Crank up some Tosca or Kruder & Dorfmeister and my keyboard is on fire. But at the end of the day I'm wiped - mentally and physically. 'Literally creating the universe' I tell them. They don't understand. A martini helps though!

Happy Perihelion! ☀️

Today is a big day for our little planet: it makes its closest approach to the sun of the entire year! This point in the orbit is called #perihelion. Then, on July 6, it will be at its most distant point in its orbit, which is called aphelion.
