Can creativity change the world?
This was the title that caught my eye as I was zipping through Moynihan Hall in Penn Station Which is in Manhattan NYC. The artworks in the glass case which encompassed the exhibit stopped me in my tracks.
When I discovered that the exhibit was based on art that was created in moleskin Journals I could not resist. I had to take in this moment and document it so I could share it with you. These are some of my favorite pieces from this dope ass exhibit.

The human eye - a pool of vivid colors reflecting, refracting, and dispersing the visible spectrum of the human experience

Dear Fellow Creatives:
You are not entitled to anyone liking your work
You do not have to read negative reviews of your work
You are not entitled to anyone liking your work
You do not get to bully, belittle, or even stalk people who don’t like your work
You are not entitled to anyone liking your work
Creating a piece of art, whatever form that takes, takes a lot of bravery, and I appreciate and love you all for that bravery
But still, you are not entitled to anyone liking your work

I don't think many people realize how much they've been turned into a bunch of casually cynical jerks.
Someone may come to their parents and say "I want to write a book" and their parents will say "it's really hard to get published".
Someone might confide in their sibling and say "I want to sell my art on "x" platform" and that sibling will say "do you know how many people you'd be competing with? Do you know how many shops are even on that platform?"
I know a kid who once told his best friend "I think I wanna start a dnd podcast" and the friend was like "do you know what the word "oversaturation" means?"
Personally, I don't know why any of that matters? And even if it did, perhaps your response should be "Do it! Do it and see where it goes!"

things to ask yourself when designing a female character:
how much blood is she covered in
are her eyes filled with madness
can she rip things to shreds with her fingernails

LEEAH JOO
Korean-American painter Leeah Joo’s work is inspired by the enigmatic and hidden. In her illusionist paintings, she teases our predisposition to probe and uncover. Intriguing parcels in her Pojagi series are enveloped by a lavish, traditional Korean wrapping cloth and beckon to be unpacked. The richly detailed paintings of lacey drapery in her Parrhasius series present an open-ended narrative, inviting us to question what lies behind the curtain. Joo studied painting and art history at Indiana University in Bloomington and received her MFA in painting from the Yale School of Art, Her paintings have been exhibited widely in the U.S. and South Korea. She is the recipient of notable awards from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, George Sugarman Foundation, Connecticut Commission on Arts and the Puffin Foundation. Currently, Leeah Joo lives and paints in Middlebury, Connecticut and teaches at Southern CT State University and Paier College.

This piece was one of my favorites for sure!
Exhibition Name:
Can creativity change the world?
Location: New York Penn Station, Moynihan Hall
Nite Owl
Staten Island, USA
Nite Owl Wabi Sabi, 2022
What is creativity? The ability to see what isntactually there. To be able to conjure up a Physical representation of an abstract thought.
My stetchbook starts with an exploration of impressionistic owls awash in color and strokes
Whitle realistic in their depiction, the colors are allowed to take over the com position. Halfway through the book, it is literally flipped into a series of character-based owls that inhabit their own colorfall world of fantasy. Both sides are awash in vibrant colors. Owls are the medium colors are the message.

things people do after having a nightmare that isn’t crying
struggle to catch their breath
grab onto whatever’s close enough to ground themselves in reality
become nauseous / vomit
shake uncontrollably
sweat buckets
get a headache
things people do to combat having nightmares if they occur commonly
sleep near other people so they can hear the idle sounds of them completing tasks
move to a different sleeping spot than where they had the nightmare
leave tvs / radios / phones on with noise
just not sleep (if you want to go the insomnia route)
sleep during the day in bright rooms
things people with insomnia do
first, obviously, their ability to remember things and their coordination will go out the window
its likely they’ll become irritable or overly emotional
their body will start to ache, shake, and weaken
hallucinate if it’s been long enough
it becomes incredibly easy for them to get sick (and they probably will)
add your own in reblogs/comments!
