WELCOMES YOU TO THE LAND OF OZ WITH THE HAPPIEST SMILE YOU'VE EVER SEEN.

PIC(S) INFO: Resolution at 1024x1462 (2x) -- Spotlight on the Scarecrow of Oz, ink and watercolors on board, original and a close-up version, from the American children's literature classic, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" (1900) by L. Frank Baum. Artwork by William Stout.

"When I was a boy I was tremendously interested in scarecrows. They always seemed to my childish imagination as just about to wave their arms, straighten up and stalk across the field on their long legs. I lived on a farm, you know. It was natural then that my first character in this animated life series was the scarecrow, on whom I have taken revenge for all the mystic feeling he once inspired."

-- LYMAN FRANK BAUM, a.k.a., L. Frank Baum (1856–1919), American author and creator of the "Land of Oz" books

woman and beast tattoo

a collage of sketches from pinterest, i believe from william stout who is an artist i quite enjoy. 1 design with one back swatch and one torso swatch.

sometimes i wish i had five bodies in real life so i could tattoo different aesthetics on each of them, and the divinity of the feminine form in art would be one of them!

AI copies showing up when you search an artist.

This has been an issue since AI generators started to get popular but it's slowly getting harder to look up artist on google or look up references on pinterest.

First example this is what happens when I search the artist Kelly McKernan. The first thing you see when you search her is this AI generated image that was created with her work, along with probably some others mixed in.

A bunch of people, including myself reported this too google. As it's misleading information on an artist.

If you look up an artist you want to see their work on the front page, not a AI generated image.

It was taken down for a short time BUT it came back today.

Another example:

It's the same with big name artist too, like William Stout. The image above isn't his, It's an AI generated image that was created with his work.

Now if anyone saw this and knew nothing about these two artist they may assume that A. This is the person's work or B. this person is a AI "artist". Both misleading and incorrect but like I said not everyone knows these facts. Also some people can be verry gullible, as we learned from there being flat earthers.

As for the Pinterest issue, just look up popular things like "anime girl" or in this case "gothic architecture"

6 of these I can tell are AI generated, which sucks on multiple levels. Including that they are useless as refs. The perspective is off and they all almost look alike.

What I'm trying to point out here is that AI generators are being used and praised far too much. To the point where it is effecting search engines.

You almost can't escape it, you will fine something AI generated everywhere. Heck even on my windows search bar is even asking people to generate an image.

Just frustrating and sad, that we can't escape these things being everywhere.

William Stout is an amazing artist, even though I often feel sorry for his old malnourished-looking dinos. No, the original does not have speech bubbles.

My media this week (9-15 Feb 2025)

his little smirk delights me

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

😤 A Family Affair (Nero Wolfe #46) (Rex Stout, author; Michael Prichard, narrator) - forever mad this contains so much period-typical misogyny towards feminists & a rape 'joke' bc otherwise it's one of my very fave in this series! dammit, rex!

😍😍 Notebook No. 6 series (magdaliny) - 56K, stucky - incredible post-WS recovery fic - this should be a classic of the fandom, up there with infinite coffee, ithlyn and 4mw. I am changed for reading it. essentially an epistolary story, since he was writing for someone. Bucky's voice was incredible: funny and devastating, often at the same time, which felt both very real & very Jewish (complimentary). in my stucky bookclub, someone said that reading this felt like they were reading Literature and I don't disagree (esp with at least one direct allusion to Joyce's Ulysses). if you are a stucky/WS fan and haven't read this, don't wait any longer.

😊 Rear Admiral ('Nathan Burgoine) - entertaining, mostly pwp short story: "Can one average nurse and his way-more-than-average crush make it work? Russ figures there’s one way to find go big or go home." You know how after you read something incredible (see above) you gotta switch gears to the complete opposite? yeah, that.

😊 Stick Handling (Kit Olmstead) - fussy fashion reporter + hockey player who makes him undergo the mortifying ordeal of being known. def a grumpy/sunshine vibe, entertaining read

🥰 The New York Avengers series (Brenda) - 54K stucky baseball AU: 2nd chance, friends-to-lovers-to-enemies-to-(finally) lovers, lots of baseball details & loads of fantastic graphic & multimedia aspects, like you don't see much these days tbh

🥰 Sweeten to Taste (saintgarbanzo, author; babooshk_art, artist) - 51K drarry set immediately after canon. some really interesting musings about retributive v restorative justice. Plus amazing food writing

🥰 Mine is the Shining Future (brideofquiet) - 48K, Stucky, pre-WWII no powers AU; reread, absolutely stellar fic

💖💖 +76K of shorter fic so shout out to these I really loved 💖💖

dinluke lawyer au #1 (spqr) - Star Wars: dinluke, 31K - absolutely fantastic au, all the details (especially han) were *chef's kiss*

PaleoArtist William Stout interviewed in new Comic Book Creator

The latest issue of TwoMorrows Publishing’s ongoing magazine Comic Book Creator (Issue 32) leads with an interview with American fantasy artist William "Bill" Stout

[frankensteinical]

Forty Days of Frankenstein, Bits and Pieces: Please take a gander at this piece of fine art created by frequent Frankenstein artist William Stout in 2003.  I’ve talked about Mr. Stout before.  He’s most commonly known as a paleontological artist, creating drawings and paintings of prehistoric creatures.  But he has also created a number of excellent Frankenstein images over the years.  This one is to the standard image—Karloff/Pierce-ish, without being a slave to it.  This is just a beautifully rendered Monster.

God! It feels good to draw again and to especially post up this beautiful piece of work after months of radio silence on the art front. I was also working on a comic series project with Mike Gustovich and it's still under development for now. Finally got back. Started on my original tattoo design/graphic commission from my bud after getting a few things off my plate and going to start watercoloring this counterculture creature.

A few sketches that I drew up for the first original draft before going with a much more livelier look. I drew a lot of influences from various underground comix artists such as Michael T. Gilbert, Robert Crumb, Gilbert Shelton, and William Stout along with the whimsically surreal ink works of John Tenniel:

So stay tuned for more updates and me finally getting off my duff to work on some unfinished pieces. ^^

(via ComicArtFans Roundup - Moebius Artwork)

One of the finest artists to ever grace comics with his talent was the French grandmaster Jean Giraud. His work has influenced creators across genres and media for the past fifty years and continues to this day. Better known by the pen name Gir when creating the Western tales of Lt. Blueberry and Moebius when doing science-fiction such as in this illustration of his signature character Arzach. "The first issue [of Metal Hurlant] featured a new character created by Moebius named Arzack. Arzachk (whose name was intriguingly spelled differently every time it appeared in the strip) had no dialogue or text whatsoever." Artist William Stout recalled on his blog. "The stories were told strictly with pictures. The drawings were executed in pen and ink, then lovingly hand colored with watercolor. The mysterious Arszak character flew about on a sizable, white pterodactyl-like creature. The art was some of the finest Giraud had drawn up to that point, a real milestone in comic book storytelling."
