Whirlpool at Naruto, Utagawa Hiroshige, 1855
love this. really feel the flow and the rolling and crashing of the water, and the composition works so well. Just the right amount and size of birds, of color in the sky, dark and light.

illustration for Paradise Lost, Gustave Dore
Gustave Dore. So good. the dark and light are so perfect, sort of heavy on the dark? I haven't read the poem but this is an epic illustration.
I wonder if the denizens of hell were like, there go those angels... "We're so special, we're Angels, look at us!"
I think everyone probably identifies with this image, even people on opposing sides of the same issue see this and think they are the angels and the others are the stewing churning demons?
I was thinking of some kind of archetypal - psychological thing about our whole natures and how culture serves to create social creatures.

I found an image match that associated this with Kurdish rug making. Love the complexity and symmetry, hand made with wool, amazing. I was trying to look at it as a piece of art meant to hang on a wall and I made associations with portals and maybe like different levels or elaborations of a central thing, maybe like a oneness with complex expression. haha Amazing traditional art

What's on my mind? uh, profit as a destructive force in human relationships, drama that obscures that reality #venezuela
Sea Bream, Bakufu Ono
feeling like a sea bream with all the water falling out of the sky around here. These prints are so elegantly done, I really appreciate the careful work. Fish faces are amazing. I guess they don't have eyelids? they never sleep. or maybe they sleep when the sun goes down. The rotation of the earth is their eyelid 😆

The Apparition, Odilon Redon
I haven't put up any Odilon Redon in a while, he's easily one of my favorite artists. I really don't understand how he got here from a blank canvas. The way his mind worked with color and application is fascinating to me. I think that there is just barely enough representation to understand the scene, but all the rest is magic, so much magic. 😁

Medieval Japan understood that true mastery requires balance. My latest article explores bunbu ichi and why “artists and fighters” belong together.

AI, Mastery, and the Barbell of Cognitive Enhancement
In the typical Hollywood action movie, a hero acquires master-level skill in a specialized art, such as Kung Fu, in a few power ballad-backed minutes of a training montage.
In real life, it may seem self-evident that gaining mastery takes years of intense, deliberate, and guided work. Yet the perennial optimism of students cramming the night before an exam tells us that the pursuit of a cognitive shortcut may be an enduring human impulse.
It is unsurprising, then, that students—and many adults—increasingly use the swiftly advancing tools of AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) as a shortcut around deeper, more effortful cognitive work. [...]

“Designing for edge cases isn’t a chore; it’s an investment in the integrity of your work. For those of us who care about craft, that’s where the real mastery shows.” — Praveen Juge
