The smiley face as we know it, the yellow smiley face, was invented (patented if you feel so pedantic about early Man/Neanderthal’s corporate aspirations) in 1963 by Harvey Ross Ball. That’s just an objective fact 😵‍💫🤷🏻‍♀️

The smiley face was invented in #worcestermassachusetts

Most people will lie to you, but more people lie to themselves. #wakeup

No 🫏

I don’t think this is the place for me. Social media in general; it’s all just another flavor of the same shit. I’m done with online “communities”. Godspeed.

#bye #sorry

Next drawing…. Will finish it by EOD… but, which EOD today? Attempt 1, or will I master the piano by the time I finish this?? RIP Harold Ramis 💛

On a scale of "Woe" to "Frolic", what are the chances of me getting a goat cameo in season three? 🤪 #artstr #art #funny #severance #artbyshrike #humor #zapathon #zap #goat #🐐

Can’t pour from an empty cup- I support this, but you know my personal caveats 😉

Your last line prompted a question within me- what constitutes “living” to you, personally? Rather, how can you live peacefully- or thrive even- and what does that look like in your vision for you? 🤔

Immediate follow just for having an archaeopteryx photo on your feed alone! You seem rad. Feel better as well, get lots of rest and liquids!

Sick at home, brain isn’t working well, so I decided to zhuzh up an old outline drawing I did of the “Bear” from Annihilation back in 2021.

Looks delish!

There must be some trend in the collective unconscious here because I literally just came home with a 4 lb lamb rib plate that I’m trying to decide what to do with. I’m probably gonna go more for Middle East flavors, but I’m just one more random who subconsciously jumped on the rib bandwagon!

Jesus saves, I spend… 😉 (it’s a song title by St Vincent)

Reported for being a disgusting pedo. You aren’t welcome here.

Sneak peek of something I’m working on. I’m really excited about this and can’t wait to reveal what I do with this famous iconography.

The base outline is traced from the source images, but the final result will be heavily modified to suit my art style! 👽

Big Keith Haring vibes on the little men! Very cool 😎

Way to utilize the colors most effectively!

Okay, last post for now… this is a “painting” I did for a local bar for an ITYSL watch party… the bar is no longer in business, but I’m pretty proud of this.

Done 100% by hand, only looking at a screenshot as a reference.

Do you recognize this dapper fella with the #zap adorned shirt?? He spent his whole per-diem on it!!!

Hopefully he doesn’t have to skip lunch again!

Oh this is super cool! I’m confused though, the address is wrong? How would I fix this, I’m not very savvy when it comes to new applications, especially crypto-linked ones!

All of the art you see posted by me is originally created artwork and writing by yours truly: the shrike you see on the left feeding a goat!

No art whatsoever that has been posted by me will be made using generative AI.

I am self taught and specialize in digital sketches, acrylic & watercolor paintings, pencil and ink, as well as haikus and other creative writing exercises created 100% by me, unless otherwise noted (like collaborative work or art I made that was heavily referenced by alternative sources).

I’m pretty new to this app, so bear with me while I work out the kinks!
