Salon de l’Empress
Mar 20
This year for my birthday I decided to start a new tradition to break my birthday curse once and for all in which I create an open call for art to put together a Metaverse gallery and party. The theme of this open call I decided should be centered around the astrological themes of my birthday ~ Cusp of Rebirth. Pisces is the last sign of the Zodiac, and Aries the first, so the transition period of March 17th - 23rd is referred to as the Cusp of Rebirth. All Zodiac signs inbetweens have cusps....

Flesh and Metal

I have been staring at this new piece that I created with Grok for hours now, her curves melting into that iridescent chrome exoskeleton while space cracks open like a glitchy orgasm all around them. It is not just the visuals that have me hooked. It is the pull of it, the way the softness of her skin presses right up against the brutal geometry of metal, how one yields in its warmth while the other demands everything in return, unyielding and eternal. I am obsessed in that full-body, heart-h...

GM ~ All weekend I was grinding AI training for fun + profit, using my paintings to build models that feel like my paintings. Infinite paintings unlocked. Friday I dropped the Liquid Glitch: Renaissance model on By Sat/Sun I was deep in crafting a new, still unnamed, collage style pulling Bimbocore maximalist meme prompts + fusing them with my painting moodboard. I was bouncing between microsoft copilot, midjourney, title.xyz and a little bit of grok (image generation there I'm still not real...

Hey everyone, it's been a while since I wrote even though my goal this year was to write more consistently. I rescued a puppy who was abandoned on my street (my gutter potato) in Feb which has been a lot with also having a rescue fighting dog, so writing got put on the back burner for a few cause trying to implement a new habit with puppy chaos was really too hard haha.
