Just Past the Ice Cream Truck is the name of this Matt Beard painting.
I super wanted one of his poppy pieces but had missed out the year before.
I put in my request and waited patiently and was eventually rewarded with this piece.
Love, love the colors.
I am guessing by the name that he wasn't the only one there to see the poppy bloom.
Nowhere near Humboldt for sure.

MusicLM is pretty dang cool! Even with it being kind of only a matter of time.

The fact it can create music for painting is pretty crazy. Some curveballs in there, but the model seemed to have handled it well. Wonder how cherrypicked these were.

"Animating Still Images. (arXiv:2209.10497v2 [cs.CV] UPDATED)" — A method for imparting motion to a still 2D image which uses deep learning to segment part of the image as the subject, uses in-paining to complete the background, and then adds animation to the subject.

Another of my fluid abstractions. 'Awestruck.' Think I should just call them my restlessness series since i only draw them when I'm stuck wanting to do 5 things at once and not being able to prioritize. #mastoart #abstract #illustration

I went to two exhibits this week; one by Sidne Teske, and another by Phyllis Shafer; my second visit before the show closes tomorrow. So fortunate to have opportunities to see amazing artwork in person. Always make me want to hurry home and get to work in my studio. Artwork is hard work.
