A selection of works in various mediums: "Lunch at the Workers' Cafeteria", "Empty Bowls" "To the Litterbox of History" and a little vampire slayer. Thanks for the show. My artwork can be found at nathannunart.etsy.com Cheers!
A painting of twelve cats seated at a long table facing the viewer. The cats wear worker clothes and appear to be enjoying lunch, talking, reading, and playing games. The room and composition are reminiscent of depictions of the Last Supper. An early 20th-century cat propaganda poster. A grey cat in worker garb stands in the foreground pointing at a large, empty bowl. In the background is a factory city whose workers are pouring into the streets. The cat asks the viewer through the top text of the poster "The owners have taken our labour, our life. And in return?" It is answered in bold text in the middle of the poster with "Empty Bowls!" An ink drawing of a determined soviet soldier cat holding up a soviet emblem. It repels numerous vampire cats around them and they flail about and burst into flame. A cat poster in the style of early Soviet Union propaganda. A cat (Lenin) stands on top of the globe sweeping away the forces of reaction and capitalism represented as cats wearing the garb of a priest, king, capitalist, and general. The characters look shocked and worried by this event. At the bottom is the slogan "To the litterbox of history" a play on the phrase "ash heap of history" famously used by Trotsky in 1917.

All my hobbies take up so much space, but they give me so much in return.

Someone asked me, rhetorically, about where the pigeons went and why they left. What a wistful question.

if you want to stave off the dread, consider reading about this maggot with a face on its butt. I think it is cute; others disagree.

Little introspective #gentlecomicshabit
A fluid comic page of abstract color shapes of the artist talking to herself. "I think a certain level of spontaneity is nice to see in comics." "But lacking structure can put your in a hard spot too." "People who do this effortlessly are like GODS to me." "How do you do it?! I shout from my tiny mountain" "Is it sheer confidence? Or maybe just trusting the process?" "Maybe if I just draw myself confident it'll seem effortless, lol" "So I tried this out as an experiment, mainly because I had no ideas for a comic today." "I watched Flow though and I loved it."

Is this even “your” chair? Does it truly belong to you? Do you own the sunbeam? Is the very air yours, too

Welp. Apple snuck something dirty in our phones last night.

Settings > Apps > (pick an app) > Siri > Learn From this App

TOGGLE OFF.

You have to go through each app. My garage app, my BANKING APPS, others had that turned on automatically. 😡
Screenshot of a phone setting highlighting the “learn from this app” invasion of privacy, courtesy of Siri, toggled on. The app is a password manager, which is concerning.

I decided to delete my FB because I wasn’t getting much from it. I don’t want to delete my IG or WhatsApp because I actually use those. I value IG for access to art I would never otherwise see and WA for chatting with friends.
