@EMannLand @rodolforever @flagshiptweets i have some very disappointing news for you…

Went to Flagship Cinemas Water Tower in Montgomeryville PA and they had posters by local Lancaster artist @strongstufftom and Mexican artist @rodolforever . I hope @flagshiptweets didn’t just download and upscale their work. I hope they contacted them and asked for usage rights

Artist Tom Whalen is coming to the Legacy Store for an artist signing on May 23. There will be two sessions, with UOAP having an exclusive window in the morning. @UniversalORL

Who needs a movie poster designer? RTs super welcome and appreciated!

Keep that Tintin sequel

AI isn't going away but the response to this is heartening because AI visuals now have this stink of being a cheap, amateurish aesthetic faux pas, along the lines of using clipart or Comic Sans. Boomers can't tell, but you don't advertise Lady Gaga with clipart and Comic Sans.

@InternetTitle good eye! not me, but i was involved with the project at sketch stage before they decided to go in a different direction.

Dis u @strongstufftom?

It never doesn’t amaze me. One of my very best friends is a USC fan and he texted me saying “that run is art”

The older I get, the more I believe happiness lives in the ordinary. Pets. Plants. A quiet morning coffee. Blue sky. Cotton clouds. Birds singing. The gentle breeze through the trees. A clean, cosy house. Good food. Good hearted simple poeple. So much of life’s beauty is quiet, gentle, and already here. And somehow, one of the sweetest feelings is knowing I get to wake up and meet it all again tomorrow.

happy star wars day! i created this piece prior to galaxy’s edge opening a few years back. i believe it was intended to be applied to merch, but i’m not sure how it was eventually used (if at all). at any rate, it feels like a good day to show it off. #Maythe4thBeWithYou
