i may be terminally online but at least i have fun and curate my experience to cater to my interests and don’t intentionally seek out things that will make me feel worse and don’t take out my personal issues on strangers on the internet
I’m trying to objectify and dehumanize it because I am a bad person and an abuser. and I would have gotten away with it too if it weren’t for you meddling kids!

Acrylic on Canvas
It’s largely airbrushed! That’s why it doesn’t look like you expect acrylic to look, if you’re expecting it to have been applied with a traditional brush
I love how art programs have spent decades building tools to ape traditional materials and techniques digitally, while at the same time artists have gone ahead and aped the digital funk of MSpaint and bad photoshop in traditional mediums. That’s just really fun to me!
“The state came to massacre, it wasn’t a [police] operation. They came directly to kill, to take lives,” one woman in Penha Complex told the AFP news agency.

I’d sincerely appreciate it if non-Brazilians reblogged this. Media outlets all over the world (and especially in my homeland) will try to sweep this under the rug but the horror has spread nationwide. We call it chacina for a reason.
It would be of great help if other countries and their citizens held Brazilian politicians/figures of authority accountable. Or, at least, acknowledge very publicly that there’s an ongoing effort by the Brazilian police force to exterminate black and brown people, especially in Rio.

This kind of thing is a regular event in the Amazon. But there aren’t any journalists there because it’s one of the most dangerous places for journalists in the world. So we never hear about it.
This is the naked face of Brasil. The old latifundia class control everything just as they uninterruptedly have since colonial times. And they still do the same open, brazen colonial shit constantly. This is what that means.
Process video of the angel I did a bit ago, because for some reason I find it important to impress upon y'all how I made it way more difficult than necessary. 6 hours condensed to ~2 minutes
