One of the coolest things I get to do as a board member of the Pacific Rim Arts Society, is booking artists and performers. This week is Summer Festival. I got to have Jay Gilday perform at TinWis Resort He’s a Dene folk singer songwriter

Thank you. The island is an amazing place to visit. Parskville is great especially for young families. The west coast of the island is staggeringly beautiful. See you when you get here. 😀

I would like to see some really simplistic Nostr relay stuff around. I’d like to help grow the arts community

IMHO this possibly the most creative of your work (that I have seen thus far) some really strong imagery and elements. nice work. 😀

Ok this illustration is 🔥 lit

As a landscape painter I can tell you; how high the horizon (or implied horizon) is in the composition will establish the natural viewing distance. The closer the horizon is to the top of the painting the further back you’ll want to view it regardless of scale. When even a large painting’s horizon is low in the composition it feels natural to get very close to the painting. In abstraction you can control this effect and use it to draw people in to see fine detail or push the viewer back to see a wider perspective.

Dropped by the Pacific Rim Art Society’s Orange Door Gallery today. This is a painting of mine in the show. #artstr #artist #painter #markpenney #painting #grownostr

The horizontal has implied landscape vibes, if that helps.

Been enjoying Jeff Booths recent interviews … https://youtu.be/Flra35NJV_I?si=1fLbwVAj26aaFbX2

All of #nostr embracing the power of a #zapping #zapathons call for generous use of the zap feature on Nostr. It’s a time to get zap happy and send some sats to all the posts you see value in Zaps are more meaningful than likes - this is the proof. 😀
