The Pussycat Pilot. This is a result of 7 years self training in 2D digital arts finally motivating me to try my hand at a book. It is the beginning in my future series about real art principles, theory, color, why I draw the way I do, sacred geometry, and a host of wide ranging topics and examples for artists. From beginner to expert I introduce my philosophy, verbal expression of my thoughts that generates my art, and encourage artists to form mental impressions they can reference to extract information from. I personally am comfortable as an artist, and have decided at this time due to the pandemic to reinvent myself. I lived an art inspired life along with those extreme ups and downs financially and the kind where you question existence, too. In this first compact book, I just tell it like it was, is, and set a pace for the future. When feeling low, or inspired, or forgot a principle or just want to bond with a fellow artist on the Mesa - (the open space of life where humans shall meet randomly or planned), your companion book is here. I will bare my heart, soul, and tie it all together to inspire, inform, and leave my legacy behind to be pondered by the next human on the hero's quest via the artist's road to infinity. Love and peace to all, share, be fiercely independent, and leave no scraps or clues behind that you traveled the road. Like a ninja's going roof top to roof top on a moonless night, stay the course, do the deed, then get out, have dinner and tea, in your private space. Or at least digitally paint that image - with single minded purpose, focus, and resolution. This is as it flowed. I let the first book reveal some traits and a flavor about myself. There is a lot to say and make more images about in future books of the series. There is not a lot of text, but the necessary ground work is put forth, and anyone may message me, through ArtStation, to ask art questions. I will share what I can. By making myself really commit to a product and a self-imposed deadline I feel personally to have a minor success. I will take longer for book two - maybe a short sci-fi story and art work to inspire and mystify. I wish everyone good vibes, Cosmic connection and understanding, as well as an opening mind, body and soul enrichment from digital art. It is not meant to be religious wishing these things, rather they are the good gifts - that an old hippie type artist traveler, Shaman wishes for humanity. It is more relevant than ever to bond with good intentions and good will to share and love. Embrace the day, and may today re invigorate you - knowing some older people still believe it is time to pass the wisdom learned along, I will use my art and my books, to do exactly that starting now. If you per chance support me and my efforts to share, improve, and reveal - then I thank you kindly and want you to know It is not a cheesy effort. A lot of time and energy was conquered up to dip my digital pen in a cyber well and transform the pixels of a new world's future. Some of the art work within is sci-fi, cute, complex, flat, 3d looking, sequential steps, and images I dreamt up, while painting, as I wrote the book on the fly. Viva the creative life. All feedback is welcome. Really - I want to grow, improve and still tell my story - day by day. This presence of mine here shows a range of truly beginning stuff to advance imagery - I was born, grew, and am maturing here on ArtStation before the world, and it has been kind. A shout out to Victor and the kind souls at ArtStation, thanks for the help and putting up with my crassness, sarcasm, joking (things I think are funny), and quest for technical assistance. Here I go Book One. Thank you all.
