A variation of my work from Supertiti09

Supertiti09 made a variant of my work as a prize, it looks so adult magazine-ish. Supertiti09 truly has experience in the art of lust.

My Reply

Well... Disney-StarWars has made female strong characters in most of their recent work: star wars episode 7/8/9- ray who finally ends the emperors reign and stars a new era absent the sith or jedi; rogue one- the daughter of the death star engineer, absent any force, who sacrifices all and guides others to make important choices and sacrificial choices to do one good while very powerful deed;Mandalorian show- Boka Tan changes from a defeated isolated leader to a better communal leader, even getting guidance by a man plus older woman, still with great fighting skill, who succeeds in fufilling her goal of uniting her people; Book of Boba- fennec shand <I do enjoy her> survives being betrayed by a younger man and becomes the trusted second in command, while visibly more dangerous than her boss, an older m, to an independent underworld empire; Ashoka Tano- has Ashoka who: admits she was/is wrong, survive failure, is extremely skilled plus lethal, trusts others to help to a collective goal, and moves in a very non offensive way, and chooses to continue training a child, no one, not even a very experienced purely logical machine, thinks has a chance of finishing her education. And is accompanied by a green skinned female general who always seems level headed but never follows orders blindly and is very sharp minded. A female padwan with the least amount of obvious impressiveness, a sign of how self loathing moth gideon was, who is full of love, who finally accepts her mandalorian roots. With female strong villains in a grey haired witch who is strong and in charge, but not flashy, while a young female warrior dedicated to a master but with a honest cruel streak. So the writers at the Star WArs section of disney have been working on female strong characters from the Stars wars films for a while, and they seem to be getting better with age. And the quality of male characters to the writers credit don't seem to be getting worse but are staying with them. I think the problem with the hans solo movie or the obi wan kinobi show was the male leads.

Martha Wells what isn't lacking is merit

The problem isn't that the impotent haven't merited more in a world dominated by the powerful. It is that the powerful overrode and override merit with power.

CENTO Series episode 20

off in search of salt and sea

like the moss that creeps over angel wings

begging intimacy, playful bites beneath silken sheets

winter

i watched the crows build their nest

where everyone is a neon glow,

tasting for the thrill of unknown

descent

i tell the moon i love her

cozy among the thorns

embarrassed at the bruises in the early morning light

spring

i’ve seen you clip your own wings, claim it’s necessary

a diminutive thing, still perched at your bedside

i heard the sway of porch chimes,

https://www.deviantart.com/everystupidstar/art/Tree-of-Life-967176500

And with it I follow ruinous glee

denying they, who leer their envy

Of she, most sacred ruin

Favorite 2 colors

I was asked
"What are your favorite color mashups? In other words, what colors do you think go best together in one illustration. I will hype the deviation you choose to make your case as well as one from your gallery if it isn't your artwork. Explain why in only 2 sentences."
My Answer
I have too many great color duets but among my work, I think medium brown with light green, but those are two key colors of the earth , used to sharing the same light.

the following shows a more elaborate green brown duet and in nature.

What is your favorite color duet?

In the group the challenge is simple, draw something seasonal, i made autumn dice, with 2 magic shadows, ala eight sides combined: six physical  + two of shadow.

Trivia: Does a New Moon happen whenever a solar eclipse happens?

The truthtellers

Gary Webb discovered a public secret. The USA is an empire. It's government did and does things for its empowerment that sometimes must never be admitted to or have no proof. All empires do this. I know this is real. People say they want the truth, but most of said people don't. The truth is like the magic mirror gate test. Most people, and that includes indigenous people in the usa, recent immigrants from central america to the usa, descended of enslaved black folk in the usa like myself, of course whites in the usa, and many or most others when faced with truths to what they hold dear will run away screaming.

What is the worth of Africa, as a continental region,  to the USA empire? 

I think the greater question is the last government in Africa to defeat a foreign, non african,  power in any fashion was ethiopia. Which government in africa is closest to making that a reality again?

https://www.deviantart.com/rtnightmare/art/Positive-Feature-Poem-Devotion-969791845

“O Prince, I pray, embrace the day

“My Lord, shall I play?” he hears her say

while near at hand, slowly wafting a fan,

While the maiden croons her wordless tune

As if in a dream, the tired man leans

ahead awaits the serried ranks

Until with a great crack, all vision goes black

And like a shot from a gun, the sun is gone.

Standing in a familiar field.

Gone is the shade, and the comely maid,

The sun has conquered the land.

The only sign he is still awake

kneels a dark-eyed maid?

The day is hot, is it not?

Dedenne in the rainforest

For the rainforest collaboration which is now closed. I made two pokemon. 

The following is the description

Dedenne, one of many pokemon serving as a hummingbird traffic guide in the rainforest. He is standing vigilant at a food sign for Bee Hummingbird visiting the rainforest from cuba. As someone small for his species he respects the bee hummingbird's need for stillness, as he has a little queens Wreath, a vine, wrapped about how for any passing bee hummingbird nourishment.

A little nudity

A fellow artist , supertiti09 had a birthday raffle and so I participated and i got the chance to get one of my works made by another. Here is the work I made. It is nude so... you have to click to see.

A Wrinkle In Citation

Citation has always been a challenge for artists. 99.99% of artists are financially impotent, sequentially, they work absent the ability to control the way in which their work is advertised. This has always been true, since the oldest rulers about the Nile. But, in modernity, the heritage of user activity, brewed through the electronic communication platform known as the internet, makes citation more than a sin, it is an absent. Citation becomes a tool for the potent and an avenue to showcase one's followship.

In the following article, cited below, the artist who made the following cover was revealed.

Only one cento for this episode, for I wanted to share a little fictional prose. 

Oh griot, sing from tween the years when the ant hordes drank Gold Mushrooms and the silver tree barks, and the years of the rise of the Daughters of Kus, there was an age undreamed of, when beaming gardens lay spread across the world like free rainbows beneath the stars.

the original quote is below , do you know who is it from? say in comments, I will not tell.:) 

Know, oh prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars.

In this day, as in the other equinox,  the equator of the earth if expanded like a disk for in an instant makes the smallest angle between itself and the center of the sun. Or you can say, if a line was made between the center of the earth side the center of the sun, the equator will be at said line.

And so my spellbook grows

Left hand tutorials

When I was a child I used both my hands. Unfortunately, influence from the majority is never insequential, positively or negatively, and I didn't do it as much. But I utilize the tutorials in Deviantart to spend time drawing with my left hand.  No reason exists why all humans beings aren't reared to use both outside of poor rearing systems.

I place the list of tutorials at the following post, they are all graphite, but have fun.

A fellow artists I am attached to on Deviantart just made over 5,000 watchers. Which is worthy of acclaim on a specialized site like Deviantart which is truly built for artists of all mediums/styles/disciplines, but not really the social landscapers , human or electronic,  that poison all the largest websites based on their populace of users. I made a little artwork for them. 

Sudowoodo

I made a Sudowoodo for a positive donation pool, if you make an artwork, nature conservancy gets two dollars. I did similar before with a make a wish collaboration. So, Sudowoodo can be considered my favorite pokemon based on art, even though I argue sableeye is my favorite in game playing.

All three Sudowoodo are cited in the Black Games Elite post below. Join the group , it will get better, but regardless , have fun.

The New Space Engine

Particle physics is just that the comprehension of the physicality of particles in them selves and unto each other. 
Now comprehend in the following explanation these are all names, you are free to use whatever names you want. Just because somebody said to call something one thing, doesn't mean you have to. Just because everyone around you uses a word for one thing, doesn't mean you have to.  I will use commonly used terms simply for others to check what i say or search on available tools, not cause I wish to carry or support the nomenclature.

Now you have compounds like "H20" which is two "hydrogen atoms" with one "oxygen atom". But "hydrogen atoms" plus "oxygen atoms" or all others on the "periodic table of elements" are composed of "electrons"/"protons"/"neutrons" or emit "photons" or "neutrinos" plus other things. You comprehend the term particle physics. To comprehend the "hydrogen atom" you need to comprehend the "electron" plus other particles. 

"protons" + "neutrons" are composed of "quarks" + "gluons". 
The "electron"  or "neutrino" or "photons" or "muons" + "quarks"  or "gluons" are commonly known to be absent composite parts. But they each have different times of life. As you know, "photons" in certain conditions is the basis for visible light. "Electrons" or "Protons" or "Neutrons" make up human side all other complex biochemical system's, including the earth itself. They don't operate like "photons", or you will see everybody in a flash. 

"gluons" are considered unstable. A nice way to think of it is the basis behind "Nuclear fission". In "nuclear fission",  elements of the "periodic table" some call heavy based on the quantity of "protons" or "electrons" or "neutrons" like "Uranium"<circa 96 protons> for example have a natural decay. Which means what? Like the human body decays at death, unstable. "uranium" does the same thing, as a much smaller entity than a human body , and slowly losses "electrons"/"protons" /"neutrons" becoming lighter and lighter till "Iron" <circa 26 protons> if I am correct. The release of the particles is energy and that energy can heat things, like water. ala a "Nuclear power plant".

So comprehending the very tiniest of particles can help explain in more detail the grandest of actions. The race to a nuclear powered space ship engine will be better designed if the smallest of particles actions can be more easily calculated.

Black Speak

Someone on AALBC, Troy, , made an argument against my use of words. And I realized that the problem hasn't been in this instance or times before with others, that word use was different between me side another black person. The problem was I was unwilling to succumb to the majority in the black community in such an elemental aspect as language. And it connects to other aspects. I wonder how many Black people in Black groups in the USA oppose other Black groups in the USA merely cause they are the minority? The word democracy means rule of the people. But the people always rule. The question is, do the majority rule? When is individualism allowed, when the individual joins the majority only? All Language warrant management over time. Why? Cause sooner or later an individuals language can be damaging to a populace and can become a groups in said populaces language. Where in it can only lead to doom cause you can't bridge languages by definition opposed to each other.

Week 2 of Bettsfic writing workshop

Main post where I describe elements of me paying attention in the week and developing a story concept based on it

Poetry based on things i paid attention to

Stageplay, using the character of Sarah from Innocent Little Margaret , having elements from the Pay Attention

What artists has truly inspired you, pick one? 

asked by RTNightmare

August Wilson, the playwright. He wrote the play Fences which was made into a film with Viola Davis side Denzel Washington. I also saw those thespians on stage.

why has august wilson inspired me more than other artists who have inspired me? 

I must first say I can make this comment book length on why. But, I will focus on how August Wilson inspires me in an uncommon way. 

...

Art in all forms or fashions is unbounded in what humans can create/intake from it. Unfortunately while inevitably, all art is influenced by the relationship humans have to each other. Art from individuals in a human community that is subservient to another human community can become trapped in or show shackles from the reality beyond the individual imagination. 

August Wilson's plays are clearly set in Black communal spaces in the usa, but are not devoid the presence of potency from the white community in the usa. While the black characters or their space is not caricatured, an exaggeration, nor is the potency from whites outside of black spaces caricatured. 

Finally, the resulting message, all art has messages <yes, even the absence of a message is a message> , doesn't pigeonhole the spectator whether Black or non Black into a guided mindset. 

All my words above are give a short explanation to the difficulty in making art that publicly involves race while not caricaturing any race or guiding the mindset of those who ingest said art on how they shall think. 

The audience is not a fool, no one is, we all know the world beyond the individual imagination, whether we like it or not. 

But seeing with my own eyes, various peoples who clearly share different opinions, leave a theater with the same mindset they came in while experiencing a story that is specific and in every element relates to the various battles or histories outside the theater. 

That is not common for artists. 

To be blunt, Barbie from ruth handler, for colored girls from Ntozake Shange , Huckleberry finn from mark twain, various films from spike lee, the little mermaid films from disney... a long list of highly acclaimed beloved art, doesn't allow for interaction by all races without caricaturing a race or trying to massage minds to change while being clearly racial in design. 

That unique quality is what August Wilson was able to achieve as a writer and that ability to achieve a unique quality puts the spirt in me to achieve different but just as unique qualities in my own craft.

I Sit And Think 

from JRR Tolkien

I sit beside the fire and think
of all that I have seen,
of meadow-flowers and butterflies
in summers that have been;

Of yellow leaves and gossamer
in autumns that there were,
with morning mist and silver sun
and wind upon my hair.

I sit beside the fire and think
of how the world will be
when winter comes without a spring
that I shall never see.

For still there are so many things
that I have never seen:
in every wood in every spring
there is a different green.

I sit beside the fire and think
of people long ago,
and people who will see a world
that I shall never know.

But all the while I sit and think
of times there were before,
I listen for returning feet
and voices at the door.

Harlem of Yore

1930 Harlem, I think circa 135th street madison

Enlistment into Ethiopia, which is why Ras Tafari commonly called Haille Selassie publicly offered land in Ethiopia in Harlem afterward. Ras Tafarians from Jamaica took the chance but it was meant for Black Harlemites.

Do you say what you really want if empowered?

From said time in Harlem to now, many black people in the USA suggest they want a world of equality but is that true? I argue many groups in the USA, not empowered, don't want equality, simply want to replace white/christian/heterosexual/men... but is that a negative desire, now that is the question?

My Thoughts

I thought about accessibility. If accessibility was considered from the beginning of most processes it would undo alot of the schemes/scams/ aspects of entertainment/social media/wesbites or other. 
For example, I like the mandolorian show from Disney. If someone is blind and they can't see the Mandolorian maybe they have an audio read version available. So they can hear each episode absent commercials. But imagine if you are listening to an on demand film, like Godzilla,  like from TNT of the warner bros group in Discovery. Imagine you hear:"this thing killed my wife!, have you ever had bad bowels, Well try..." The commercial break is by default a terrible element. For someone who can only hear they are bound to hear a commercial where those with sight can mute and move on and come back. 
Accessibility if engineered optimally will delete many methods of commercialization in entertainment or media through electronic means.

Is Anime Art

The following is a question and answer I placed for the description

Do you think anime is art? Why/why not?

of course anime is art, to be blunt, anime is an artistic movement that is centuries old based on art from Nippon, that like all movements has variations. 

What do you think as beauty in Art?
Beauty in art is complex because, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

- As a viewer, what is the first thing you look for in artwork?
first thing, i tend to find in art, not look for in art, but I read and view a lot of various art styles. One of the things about growing up in NYC as a kid, I was fortunate to have parents utilize the cities museums which cover all styles of art.

- As an artist, what do you value the most while creating?
spreading my imagination

• 15th- Venus|Moon conjunction; Ignacio Anaya Garcia born 1895, inventor of the nacho
• 16th- New Moon ; Moon at Apogee- Moon is farthest from earth while the moon is on the ecliptic, the path of the sun in the sky , but on the opposite side of earth, thus it can not be seen cause it is in the earth's shadow. I think this should make this the least dark new moon as the moon is farthest from earth.
• 17th - Cat's nights < a poem https://aalbc.com/tc/blogs/entry/261-good-news-blog-stories-through-a-year/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-943> in old ireland they say a witch can turn herself into a cat eight times, one a day from the 9th to the 16th , but if she turn herself into a cat on the 17th, a ninth time , she can not turn back bwahahaha! Cat's have nine lives:) ; 1978 first atlantic ocean crossing balloon flight, the Double Eagle 2 < Balloons are not dirigibles, balloons use a flexible material to house the material at rest or excited, like hot air, while a dirigible places material in a rigid structure. So for example, a balloon or a dirigible can be filled with hydrogen, a gas lighter than air. The Balloon casing will be lighter than the dirigible which is solid but the dirigible casing will protect the volatile hydrogen from being influenced from outside better on average than a balloon the casing plus the dirigible casing will allow greater pressures inside on average than a balloon casing. In parallel, the balloon casing is lighter so you need less hydrogen. The first dirigible to cross the atlantic ocean was the Deutsches Luftschiff Zeppelin 127 of germany in 1928>
• 18th- Mercury|Moon = Mars|Moon conjunction
• 19th - Moon on Equator. The center of the moon plus the center of the earth make a straight line at the equator of the earth.

Two working systems were busted up under the guise of antitrust, but functionally to aid a new industry in not having to deal with an old one that will be in recovery because of the changes. You can add it is like the Ma Bell being broken up when the Internet starts rolling strong. 
In retrospect , the film industry never recovered and now like Ma bell, like the trains, has recombinated after being forcefully broken up but the damage of those years has hurt the financial methodology.
