Why the Fuck Does It Cost That Much?
Occasionally someone looks at an original artwork and asks, with genuine bewilderment: “Why does it cost that much?” Excellent question.

Odyssey Movie Review 🍿 🎥
So in the midst of my book coming out, we had some time to go and watch The Odyssey, such a well-written and well-cast movie. I’m a huge Greek mythology nerd, and my lady said the movie was phenomenal as well, which means my movie-picking choices are top tier if she liked it. The movie was a 9.9 out of 10 because the concession stand didn’t have her soda of preference, but we pushed through. Here are my thoughts on it.

John Saunders: Where Wild Horses Meet Memory. Top Story - September 2026.
By Brian D’Ambrosio The wild horses of Placitas do not need an introduction to John Saunders. They know the way. They wander near his home in the high desert, sometimes approaching close enough to eat apples and carrots from his hand. They are cautious but curious, animals shaped by instinct and survival, yet willing to accept a moment of care.

Arty Farty – Are You Serious?. Top Story - August 2026.
I recently read an article discussing the ten most famous paintings in the world. It reminded me of a visit to an art gallery about twenty years ago. Don’t get the wrong idea here. I am not an arty person. I have a few original paintings in my house that I bought for the colours and the overall “likeness factor."

Brand New Day!
Spider-Man: Brand New Day! Let’s goooo! Okay, so I was beyond geeked to see this movie and the direction it would take after Peter had everyone forget who he was, including his nearest and dearest friend, Ned, and also his MJ! For me, I loved some moments of the movie and some moments not so much. Overall, I would give Brand New Day an 8/10 rating, which is still pretty good! So, let’s dive into it. What I was really a big fan of was Peter going through his phase of his powers spiraling, him getting organic webs and super senses, and having to work through that. I also loved Jean Grey's introduction into the MCU! I really like the actress Marvel cast to play her; she fits the role perfectly for Jean, and her storyline introduction was amazing, displaying how powerful she is at such a young age. I love the plot twist/storyline where it appears that Jean was the “villain,” but it turns out she was the victim and was looking for her sister. Later in the movie, we realize Damage Control attempted to manipulate her power, which ended up killing her. All along, Damage Control was really the villain; the writing behind that was really good! I do like the fight scenes in the movie, although I think they could have been a little better, but they were solid, especially when Peter hit peak power against the red ninjas! I wasn’t so much a fan of the Punisher in the movie, but I understand the role he played. It was also refreshing to see Bruce Banner's Hulk in prime form, not in between aggressive and smart Hulk. I think Marvel’s introduction of the X-Men and Fantastic Four is flawless, and Brand New Day definitely laid some stepping stones for Doomsday!

The Great Niko Pirosmani
I've been working on this story for several months, and it's going to be long but I just wanted to put a lot of things about Pirosmani in one place. You can read it in parts or come back to it, whatever is more convenient. But if you are into art, this is going to be a treat.

The Cursor That Wouldn’t Stop Blinking
At 2:40 a.m., he pushed his chair back and stood up. His knees cracked. Three printed drafts were spread across the desk. The first was covered in red ink, dense as a vascular diagram. The second had half a page streaked with blue highlighter. The third was clean, except for a folded corner at the bottom. He picked up the third draft, held it under the desk lamp, and read the first sentence of the abstract again.
