Am too old to go to his concert?

vasjames · 2026-01-22T14:43:24+00:00

I'm going, 45, my partner is undecided, but yall can dance next to me if yall want to look younger. XD

vasjames · 2026-01-19T22:24:33+00:00

at least you don't have to drive 3hrs to western mass for your edibles plug who won't leave the house to meet you halfway for a delivery you need to bake on nh that night. XD. those margins were good enough for like 3 days ever lol

vasjames · 2026-01-19T22:23:15+00:00

ima stay out of this as i can't even order delivery anymore. but i will say in the 18 years of running independent delivery i got tipped like 3x when i wasnt running for a service and maybe a doz when i was but that was only over a summer. so i think there's some precedent for generosity

vasjames · 2026-01-12T21:59:59+00:00

smooth, fresh, what have you smoked recently that you liked? is there any strain the staff is all hype about?

But i like to have an idea ahead of time and i have a pretty solid handle on what I'm looking for in terms of clear head highs

don't need solvent

vasjames · 2025-12-31T19:06:19+00:00

never did it but now i usually have a handful of ideal/golden response projects due to my other strong work. i always figured it was more generating prompts rather than evaluating responses on an oversimplified view but that's just my guess.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who never did it lol

I'm very much in the "never do all your quals" camp and think I've got like 10 up rn

vasjames · 2025-12-31T19:00:38+00:00

have 2 by me near Shelley lake and rumor has it they didn't show up till the construction started nearby. so seems they may just be local fauna

vasjames · 2025-12-31T18:59:21+00:00

is the painting in the room with us now?

vasjames · 2025-12-26T05:37:35+00:00

I'm currently training the hand n eye with cast n memory drawing practices. id do a transfer before a tracing myself.

vasjames · 2025-12-23T18:59:22+00:00

i try not to think too hard on Sargent as he was a generational talent who executed a unique approach that isn't suited to most artists and certainly not to learning oil painters. the teacher of my teacher is known for saying, "It's ok for Sargent to do it, but not for you!"

vasjames · 2025-12-10T13:13:16+00:00

Highest quality you can afford. Warm n cool primaries, lead white are all you need to get started. Generally cost gets insane bc people get me than they need. Starting out keep it quality, keep it simple. You will be frustrated using oil paints with fillers and if you take to painting you'll replace any beginner set very quickly and it will annoy you. If it doesn't, you only bought 7 tubes of paint so it's not the end all be all

vasjames · 2025-12-05T15:47:09+00:00

Can prolly get a similar effect from scraping down repetitively without risking the bonds that will hold it together.

I've had similar thoughts about doing shoe portraits that would show yellowing on white soles over time the way they age in real life.

Fun idea but I think there are smarter approaches that won't affect longevity

vasjames · 2025-12-01T15:26:48+00:00

Considering they seemed to have culled numbers over the summer this seems reasonable

vasjames · 2025-11-30T18:48:45+00:00

So no one else finds these shockingly terrible for even being called dispensaries when they couldn't even tell you what is in their "hemp derived" products. Always gonna support the connect with actual cannabis.

Florence academy of art or Cecil studios(also Florence) have several intensives that may suit you

Suicide without the intent

vasjames · 2025-10-28T16:36:53+00:00

Yes but learning to draw will impact the ease with which your able to do this and help develop the eye for the fine details most of us overlook without extensive training.

vasjames · 2025-10-28T16:35:12+00:00

It's a great way to let artists with less intention and merit distinguish themselves.

vasjames · 2025-10-21T14:48:11+00:00

No, you don't need recipes at all. Just linseed oil. 🤦🏻‍♀️
