MWW Artwork of the Day (4/14/22) Caravaggio [Michelangelo Merisi](Italian, 1571-1610) The Taking of Christ (c. 1598-1602) Oil on canvas, 133.5 x 169.5 cm. National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin

"The Taking of Christ" was painted for the Roman Marquis Ciriaco Mattei at the end of 1602, when the artist was at the height of his fame. Breaking with the past, Caravaggio offered a new visual rendering of the narrative of the Gospels, reducing the space around the three-quarter-length figures and avoiding any description of the setting, with the exception of a single olive branch. Judas has identified Jesus with a kiss and the temple guards move in to seize him; the expression of disturbed acceptance on his face one of the most moving details. The fleeing disciple in disarray on the left is Saint John the Evangelist. Only the moon lights the scene: although the man at the far side is holding a lantern, it is in reality an ineffective source.

Caravaggio is one of the featured artists in this MWW gallery/album: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.473455999426441&type=3

"Batman...Darling". I was a little conflicted on this piece after I finished, mainly because I tried to use duller colors than I normally do to emulate the look of Frank Miller's artwork. All in all though I am very happy with how this came out! #thejoker #joker #batman #batmanvillains #thedarkknightreturns #tdkr #frankmiller #batmandarling #lipstick #arkham #dccomics #portrait #drawing #sketch #copic #coloredpencil #guoache #whitegelpen #chiroscuro

I like sneks. Here’s a work in progress for an internal project at UTOKA I directed.

Watch Over Me 20’x30 This piece was made in appreciation of my mother @fitness_is_real_ . With her close watch, guidance, and ever-lasting love, she’s helped mold me into the man i am today. I’ll never be too proud to listen to your words of advice because you’ve never steered me wrong. As we both start this new chapter, i thought id show my love with a gift we developed together. #mom #mothersday #motherslove #love #art #artistsoninstagram #WIP #workofart #masterpiece #blackandwhite #shadows #chiroscuro #angel #blessed #love #motherandson #passion #hardwork #dedication (at Delaware State University)

I share my love of Alien: Resurrection on this episode. Newborn, my cutie 😍 Regrann from @perfectorganismpodcast - NEW EPISODE! 👉 http://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-svzgp-8e191f It's easy to write off Alien Resurrection as the black sheep of the Alien Saga. Whether you love it or you hate it—or both at the same time—you can't deny there's a lot to talk about. In this riotous roundtable, Ryan, Patrick, Clara, and Dave revisit this crazy film and try to figure out what works and what doesn't. Along the way, they deal with some pretty deep questions: Is Dave's dad a prophet? Was Michael Wincott the inspiration for Christian Bale's Batman voice? How much K-Y Jelly is too much K-Y Jelly? As we come closer to the end of our In Defense of Alien 3 series, we're excited to launch this new miniseries on Resurrection.
