I guess the Spider-Man “Butt Kleenex” is making the rounds again. In 2019 I made this handy chart to show that I AM NOT THE BUTT KLEENEX ARTIST! *I* have the distinction of being the Spidey Penis Balloon artist. So, in review, Spidey Penis Balloon = Me. Spidey Butt Kleenex = Not Me. Thanks!

Digital artist confession: I still use Nagel series photoshop brushes from 20 years ago. As they say, If it ain't broke, don't reinvent the wheel.

Apparently, people like me are the reason the invention of sliced bread was so important.

Respect to Ron Frenz, but the swing path of Mjolnir is triggering me.

When walking my dog, if we pass a house with another dog in the window, and that dog loses his mind and barks & scratches at the window, my dog will stop, look at the other dog, and pee in that front lawn, staring down the barking dog the entire time. It’s an impressive level of spite to witness.

Look at this psycho supervillain the Bears have as their new head coach. LOOK AT HIM. The Bears are turning heel!

3/2 I just remembered that I may have accidentally hit a soldier with my sword when we were fighting Oblivion demons in Kvatch.

Scott Johnson @scottjohnsonart.bsky.social · Aug 6

2/2 So I leave in a huff, but on the road a guard chases me down and he’s like “MURDERER! Pay your Murder fine of 1000 gold or go to jail!” And so now I’m in jail but I don’t know who I murdered.

1/2 So I’m playing Oblivion for the 1st time and a shady dude in dark clothes appears out of nowhere and he’s like “Hello fellow murderer, you are invited to join our illustrious Murder Guild! But I’m like “What? No! I’m no murderer! I’m a hero! I just saved Kvatch!”

Original Spider-Man art. This is gouache paint on 11”x15” cold press water color paper mounted to illustration board and sealed with cold wax medium. I’d like to gauge interest from buyers and see if this is a direction that I should pursue further. In the mean time I’m open to offers.
