I'm starting to wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to have a ghoul. The air in the city is becoming decidedly darker. Murders and executions? What's next?

I feel like I've been in a rut ever since lately. I think I need a change.

Would anyone be willing to model for me? [...] I can't pay much. But I can trade a favor for a favor!

[...] You can go out in the daylight right?

Does anyone know if they said why they destroyed the gallery? Before

I guess it doesn't matter.

But. It matters.

Some fucking rats have chewed through my T1 line and I am not happy about it. Living off the good graces of cellular data until I can fix this shit.

I lie. No, they didn't.

That was a lot a lot a lot a lot of layers to go through but I've been working on it nonstop except for forced sleep. Now I'm very hungry. send me some take out as a pressie.

First the downtime, then the spam, now these [...] misfired emails.

I'm starting to think ravens really might be the better option.

Lovely sentiments from our Prince. And now it is my turn, my loves.

I am working on organizing a Salon. I have some artists signed and ready. Kine even! Très choquant, I know, but I do not discriminate when I see talent. So, a few kine have been brought into my future salon and now I extend the offer to Kindred of any kind. The space won't be ready for a little while but now is the time to pick and choose which pieces you wish to display! Those who wish to display during this event should leave their personal contact information and one of my retainers will contact you with the size of the designated areas.

( A definitely important message for Ariel from Felix, who doesn't know that there was a murder today yet. Whoops. )

I must speak, for a moment, on Zdzisław Beksiński. What a tragic figure of the art world and a tormented genius - though I suppose, are they not all? Untrained but passionate, fueled by music and unable to stand the desolation of silence. Quoted as saying "I wish to paint in such a manner as if I were photographing dreams," he believed the almost horrifying depictions of unusual landscapes and skeletal bodies were actually hopeful, uplifting, humorous. I do not know if I agree but art is, of course, in the eye of the beholder and Master Beksiński would agree as he cared not for interpretations - even from himself.

It is quite a bold statement in the art world to dismiss interpretation as vehemently as he did, to dislike it so much that one would refuse to hear a single word of it but I tend to enjoy this. Art simply does not have to mean anything at all and those that cannot accept this fact will be miserable until the day they die. As the kids say, that is my hot take. Do not "at" me.

His was a tragic end as they so often are. His wife passed on followed closely by his son in a true tragedy. As if that was not enough, he was then murdered in his own home by a foolish child in an act of rage.

And I am obsessed. I have been since I discovered his works in the mid-90s. Although I have seen them all so many times, I have never lost my interest in his unusual use of line and striking colors. I shall now share some of my favorites ending with my absolute favorite.

I'm still trying to figure out what vintage blood is.
