Squeezing in one more sketch right before the month is up! After I drew Janaki, I was inspired to draw some more deity(s?) We shall see. But as I was drawing this I started thinking about the religions that humanity has established over the past 10,000 years we've been around. From American Indian spirituality, to Mayan, Incan, and Aztec deities, to Assyrian and Egyptian theology- All of them are different, yet share the same core values that something bigger than us is responsible for mankind's privilege to live. Whether you believe in God or not, this much is evident in the fact that if all the trees died you wouldn't be able to breathe. So I came to conclude that spirituality is necessary for humanity to thrive. It keeps us humble if we respect that concept rather than to pridefully indulge our own selfish egos. That being said; I think it's better to have an idea of God rather than let any one religion tell you what to believe. Like humans, God is multi-faceted, and to only acknowledge one religion, to me, is like worshipping a big toe instead of a whole entity. LOL. I'm so philisophical!
Moving on, I've been listening to Purity Ring lately. And I love them, BUT (and this is so damn childish) my ex told me about them initially. So right out the gates I was like "FUCK A PURITY RING!" and then I gav ethem a listen and i was like "oh my god they're so goooood, but every time i hear them they make me think of Joe." and needless to say, I want to punch his soul in half. So I was conflicted over liking the band because my ex liked them.... ugh YES I know I'm such a drama queen. But that hasn't stopped me from listening to them. Now I'm just telling everybody else I know to try and remove some of the taint. lol
I've been working on and refining this "Tiki City" concept ever since I got the option to ask AI to imaginate for me. The first two are some of the very first Midjourney prompts I ever made out of the first free 25, because I never paid after they started charging for it. Between Three different generators, the prompts are generally the same, so the AI is clearly getting better as an artist. But also, the concept of this city is getting so clear, maybe these ancestral streets exist somewhere and the portal is opening wide like the mouth of a Lion. 🤷
My second ever attempt at environment painting... It's okay :\ It's a good start I guess T_T. I need to practice... This was my point of reference. I'm sorry I just have to confess this and get it off my chest. Completely unrelated to this painting- Big Bang is taking over my life. I don't know what on Earth is posessing me to fangirl at this maniacal, psychotic level, but I missed their concert in New Jersey a few weeks ago and it's tearing my soul apart. I regret it DEEPLY. I have NEVER felt this way about any celebrity(s), EVER. I can't even choose one bias (favorite)- It stresses me out just to think about having to choose. I love them ALL SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH that it is probably causing some irreverisble psychological damage to my mental health. I'm not the only one either- other VIP's (Big bang fans) are just as fanatic if not worse than me. You know, maybe it's good that I didn't go to the concert, I would have been shrieking, cr
Another character sketch-there's still 7 left but that's it for the females and I haven't yet made this one cohesive, with a description but it's hot off the press... or scanner...anyway, i'll come and update this post later with a proper, completed, character sheet. Miss. Terry, I know you'll see this post so I hope I did you some justice. If you don't think so...well.. you can suck my balls. LOL jk, jk! Enjoy. PR: wait... I: wait... L: wait... LD: wait... I: wait... wait... Rank: wait... Traffic: wait... Price: wait... C: wait...
