"Feeling the Fall" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

It's getting damn chilly around here. Must be that time of year again! We're smurfing out here in about an hour to visit a pumpkin patch with the granddaughter! Should be entertaining. She's two now, so she has a little bit more of a grasp on the holidays than she did last year. (Why am I typing with one eye closed??? My body is f-ed up! Ha!) So, pumpkin hunting today, and I think tomorrow is supposed to be an "arts and crafts" day (I usually get a bunch of art done during those,) then NEXT week I'm covering for a human in Vancouver, so I've gotta leave the house! I usually work from home (and can thus avoid going amongst "THE PEOPLE," so we'll see how all of that goes. With the travel time (it's about 40 minutes from the home bunker to the college), I'm not sure how much ART energy I'll have next week. Only time will tell. (I better get a lot of stuff minted this weekend...)

Speaking of minted ARTZ, here are my most recent SHARES WITH THE WORLD. Lots of weird stuff here that I hope will prove fun! Continue on for ADVENTURE (or something...)

"Abstract (11 Jun. '21 - A)"

[Ink and fabric collage on canvas with digital embellishments and color.]

The it of it that was of not for this that was is or not but as should was be of it. And all of that with a free app on my phone. Don't you agree?

"Objkt Oriented Programming" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

[Digital drawing over a lovely photo I took of the sunset in Lincoln City, Oregon.] There appears to be a few bugs in the machinery...

"Feral God"

[Ballpoint pen on paper with sticker collage, digital embellishments, and digital color.] She appears in dreams to those who are worthy. There are few survivors.

NEW KRYPTO KICKS - Series 01, #10 - "Swamp Beast"

[Paint pen and metallic marker on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.]

My brothers and I grew up just a few miles from a nuclear powerplant, and we would often visit the park that was built around the reactor and even swim in the waters of the artificial lake that was created on site for PR purposes... The reactor was eventually demolished, but not before its legacy oozed into the swampy marshlands---changing and twisting the surrounding plant and animal life...until one fateful night when IT was born...

"Poise"

[Ink on notebook page.] From my field notebook. This is my sketch of the famous ghoul dancer, Kim Flobotomus. She/he has thrilled undead audiences for centuries with her/his strangely dramatic rhythmic pantomimes...

P.S. - Avoid the VIP Backstage Passes... They're lethal...

"Flat-Top Thug"

[Paint pen, chalk pen, and metallic marker on black stretched canvas.]

This is my impression of a graffiti wall portrait of a nasty criminal type who might (or might not) be in contact with demonic forces that help him run his evil empire. (And you KNOW he's evil---cuz he has a flat-top!)

P.S. - It'll take a very SPECIAL detective to bring this bastard down...

I've been having some Hic-et-Nunc troubles lately! Lots of "Metadata on queue" bullshit, which makes people nervous. (These pieces are on chain, they just need to be indexed by HEN.) I'm ALMOST tempted to switch to objkt.com full time...(they both run on Tezos chain)...but I probably won't. I just hope they get things sorted soon! Now, I have to go eat my breakfast and get ready to go pumpkin slaying! Hooray!
