"I could hear the specks of life that crawled beneath my clothing, the rotting of the great tree which rose from its three-cornered trunk above me. I could hear the darkness gathering against me and the silences that lay between the moving things." Robert Leckie, Helmet for My Pillow (1957)

"...when you see beauty in desolation it changes something inside you. Desolation tries to colonize you.” Jeff Vandermeer, Annihilation (2014)

#the pacific #hbo war #john basilone #sci names below the cut #so if you wanna hear the great big meta on this piece i started writing a fic years ago that attempted to merge-#-the biology-scifi-body-horror of Annihilation and the wild bleakness and tropical vibrance of The Pacific #i still think they would make a great crossover. A parallel that might have influenced this was JJ Abrams's Overlord (2018)#which crosses zombies and D-day in this sorta gothic romantic aesthetic. if im remembering correctly #well i never got more than one chapter into the fic and it still lays very scarily in my google drive #another thing. oarfish have been rent free for me ever since i saw my first specimen when I was very little. ever since I feel as if-#-i have been followed by oarfish? like in the sense that I keep seeing them even though they're pretty rare to be able to see #fun facts: both the bat and the crow are native to Guadalcanal and not found anywhere else. guess what they're called???#i must have spent at least twenty-four hours on this piece over a month of work.#this is my magnum opus rn #i go to sleep now #more thoughts to come maybe. if you feel like asking please do lol #my art

just consumed most of the David Lynch Wikipedia page in one sitting and realized the only piece of his media I've watched is Rabbits, a delightful and off-putting webseries, which I have forgotten about for years. I cannot be the only person I know who has seen this?

#pop off in comments if u have #dealing with a headache and have the house to myself... all I wanna do is read this wikipedia page apparently #also looking for other art to feed myself with. unknown gems best. weirder is better. unsettling is also good but not essential #i know all i post about is commercial media but i really do have a desire to understand auteur media and truly indie contemporary art #I say this as a person who has not consumed a singular hitchcock or lynch film fully and that is my bad #on the subject of scary media I saw Bring Her Back recently and I am forever changed (wouldn't ever watch again btw)#one thing I really enjoyed about it tho was that I found a companion website that “resells” the objects from the directors' films #im talkin to myself. idk if anyone reads these but its time for me to go to bed prob #btw i sat down at my desk fully intending to paint some BoB stuff. bleh #if ur curious this is my wikipedia path: ayesha erotica -> slayyyter -> gummo / Inland Empire -> lynch #I SPEAK #not art #ok maybe i release my musicpost now

Freedom is outside the wire

#masters of the air #hbo war #john bucky egan #so funny story i misremembered when the white horse appeared but then i was like heck naw im not drawing austin butler #because i have imaginary beef with him for always doing the elvis voice for everyone including cleven #so yeah imagine this as more like a.... connection between freedom and egan's lack of while gale gets to run free #gale is the horse.#i think at some point i will try making an animation out of my horse frames #they're from the horse jockey reel #but i only have base csp paint and haven't touched krita in a while so that's incoming in a loooooong time if i get to it #my art

dont trace reference images. dont even LOOK at reference images. in fact, don't ever look at anything that exists in the world, in person or in photos or in videos, even when you're not drawing, because you will still be able to use the memories of what something looks like as a reference when you're drawing it later. yes that includes yourself. destroy all the mirrors in your house. don't look down at your hands or feet. don't look. close your eyes. close them tight. forget everything. it's okay, embrace the darkness. just forget.

He felt crazy sometimes. Real depravity. Late at night an electric sizzle came into his blood, a tight pumped-up killing rage, and he couldn’t keep it in and he couldn’t let it out. He wanted to hurt things. Grab a knife and start cutting and slashing and never stop. All those years. Climbing like a son of a bitch, clawing his way up inch by fucking inch, and then it all came crashing down at once

Band of Brothers imagine:

imagine for the 25th anniversary of BoB, Tom Hanks dropped some deleted scenes

#begging for 25 years.#i had this delusional thought that they could film a 25 year reunion flash-forward with the now-25+ years older actors #in the 1970s. u know what im saying?#we know Tom likes this series as much as we do. Maybe even more. it's literally his baby all grown up #will be screaming actually if any “new” BoB content ever pops up.#we can always hope #not art #I SPEAK
