so i've been re-watching atla....... expect more art soon

Finished (re)watching ATLA with my sister a couple weeks ago. Zuko was her favorite, so I drew him for her... along with a little turtleduck :)

Hey, if you're a minor and you're following my blog, I just need you to be aware:

You have been on this earth for fewer years than my cat has.

She turns 20 this week, everyone please say happy birthday 🥳💖

Update! She tolerated wearing a hat for the occasion ✨

Good news, everyone!! 🎉

Rage. In my heart. All-consuming. FUCK AI.

For those who don't know, this piece is titled 'Unfinished Painting', by Keith Haring. He painted it about a year before his death of AIDs. I believe he actually finished other pieces between this one and his death. He left the majority of the canvas blank to represent his life and art career cut short due to HIV/AIDs. This was a deliberate choice and commentary about all that we lose (both personally and culturally) by ignoring the AIDs crisis at the time (1989). He was devastated he didn't have time to make more art. 'Finishing' Unfinished Painting is straight up spitting on Haring's grave and shows no understanding to the meaning behind the art. The AI interpretation doesn't even follow his extremely recognizable shape language and symbols. This is why people are angry about AI art. All commerce images and no meaning or humanity

AI 'art' reduces art to the immediate image on the page. It's all about consuming as much of it as quickly and easily as you can. It's an image devoid of context; it can't mean anything, because there's no intention behind it. It's just a random assembly of images, pulled from various other works and mashed up into an approximation of what the person writing the prompt has asked for. You can't read anything into it. It won't ask any questions of you, and it won't answer any either. You can't find meaning in it beyond its aesthetics. There are no lines to read between in AI 'art', and if there are any, they're probably just from someone else's picture.

hiring a wizard to break whatever curse is holding henry kissingers shitty body together and laughing with childish glee as he instantly collapses into individual limbs like a lego character

there's something so poetic about the fact the coyote vs acme being the thing that causes wb's 'the producers' ass scheme of shitcanning movies for tax breaks to blow up in their face and cause them to turn to the camera, blink twice, and dissolve into a little pile of ash that their eyes fall down into with a little bounce
