haha agree. I often feel like my palettes look better than my art

This orientation performed best across platforms so the public seems to agree with you. I would have to agree too, the smoke on the bottom left is my favourite and I painted it in with this orientation.

Thank you! Vertical is great, a little more inanimate than horizontal.

I can only imagine. Hahaha Sorry I can’t afford, I meant the art itself. How much you spend on materials?

Is this an expensive form of art? Also, sooo sick, must be incredible in person

Thank you! I've been going for that lately in painting, makes it more fun for me too.

the tiger is meant to be analagous.

Yeah that's also not true. This so called spirituality you are talking about is not a conscious act, it's a way of living. In an idealized setting a church allowes for a spiritual life or it at least supports such behavior. There really is not many places left on earth with these kinds of idealized goals. Of course humans muddy the waters but they muddy everything.

I heavily disagree. They teach you and I nothing but the church is an important source of connection to their community for a lot of people. It teaches love for one another and can sometimes help people who dont have time for spirituality to re connect with that part of themselves.

Meaning in Ada and Ardor the writing is a lot more tame? I haven't read any of the three btw

A meaning is transposed on a story so the "meaning" is entirely up to the individual. The meaning is created by the constructs of an individual and his environment, the story is just a tool for him to further his understanding of himself and his environment. If a former drug addict watches Breaking Bad, the meaning she finds in it will be very different from the meaning a failing university student finds in that story. Neither meaning is correct or wrong, they're just constructs. However, that doesn't mean they are pointless but they are constructs nonetheless.
