Today I received two new paintings from international artist @th3-0bjectivist  'Xylania's Garden' and 'Sub-Light Alley' it came all the way from North Carolina, USA to Wales in the UK and I couldn't be happier.

I've collected original art for a few years and I've worked as a professional artist for more than forty years and over that time one of the things I've discovered is that people can be quite snobbish about art. Some of the comments I've had 'but can you do proper painting?' meaning can I paint things to look like a photograph of the original? Yes, I can, but I find it dull and tedious.

Another thing I've come across, particularly when I paint abstract, 'I don't understand it' What's to understand? Do you like it? Does it make you feel something? Then it's done its job.

If you have a message to get across, put the words right there in the painting, job done.

Paint in metaphors, only you will know what you're trying to say but that doesn't matter, someone will reinterpret it anyway, but they'll love it too.

I've painted watercolour landscapes, naive fairytale images, acrylic portraits, collage, monoprint, assemblage art and photography, I've been art director on a few music videos and my point is this, just create, find a style you enjoy and make art, your people will find you but more importantly, let it out, it's great therapy and you'll fill your system with dopamine, serotonin, endorphins and oxytocin, you'll free yourself from anxiety during the process which is a form of mindfulness, there are no downsides to creating art, just do it.

By the way, I absolutely bloody love art by @th3-0bjectivist check him out and buy some for yourself ! XX

我感覺畫的最深處(裡面)好似有另一個世界，有時顏色的堆疊的設計或巧合會產生一種神秘景象。 I feel like there is another world in the deepest part of the painting. Sometimes the design or coincidence of stacked colors can create a mysterious scene.

Prayer (or 'a request to the Universe') is strong when focussed on manifesting good things in your life and healing for others, whatever your religous or Spiritual beliefs.

Never underestimate the Power of a little light.

Springin' Chip with a 24' page update!

Greetings, dear follower! th3-0bjectivist has appointed me, Chipper the Springer Spaniel, as the official page mascot and acting spokescanine of this blog moving forward. It sure is great to be here! And might I say, the range of my vernacular as a mere canine has increased something like 28000% in just the last few weeks thanks to the hard lessons I’ve endured so far. Late nights in front of an English dictionary, lots of treats, and tons of sleepless nights have transformed me into perhaps the only English-literate puppy that has ever existed on planet Earth. From this point forward, I plan to operate as an empathetic, humorous, and nurturing presence to all of those on Tumblr into 2024 and beyond!

If you wanna know a little more about me to start, so far in life, I enjoy 1. Voraciously sniffing all manner of ass and crotch (if you approach me, please just spread fully eagle for one full minute, it lets me know who you are without you saying a word) and getting my own ass/crotch sniffed! 2. Pissing indoors (preferably on carpets to create an overpowering urine-miasma that permeates the entire room) 3. Attempting to playfully bite th3-0bjectvist directly in the balls with my nasty, bacteria-laden, inverted Spaniel teeth on a weekly basis!!

My pal, th3-0 and I, have long discussed my potential nickname on this blog. It has run the gamut from… Chip the Dip, to Chipper the Dick, to Chip the Prick, to Chipper the Testicle-Destroyer. In particular, the phrases ‘Stop biting me’, and ‘Hey, A-hole, cut that biting shit out’, and ‘Hey, dickhead, stop trying to bite my fuckin’ balls!!’ have strongly resonated with me as a puppy. I’ve realized very early on; it is essential that I improve my behavior otherwise I’m going to be hard-up on quality treats. And that’s what this blog will be all about moving forward… gradual improvement! Luckily, I have the good fortune of being cute as all hell. So, we graciously settled on the tentative title Springin’ Chip to instead highlight the positive aspects of our collective spirits and aspirations moving forward. New year, new positive goals! Folks, just look at my pics! Check out my feathered-ears and adorable face! Do I not have the perfect mug to represent a proper renewal of this blog?? And mug I will! If you continue to follow th3-0bjectivist, you’re going to see me grow up slowly over the next few months and years! Anyways, onto a bit of business…

My new friend, th3-0, has instructed me to give you an official page announcement! He will be back soon (end of March) with new art and drawings, music and commentary, goofy-ass memes, and more! This year (2024) th3-0 will be putting an artistic focus on dimensionality and expression by doing lots of drawings of expressions on human faces! He will also attempt to make some paintings with a little more -- POP -- than in previous years by incorporating a liquid background behind a solid mass of brushwork. If you like music, and who doesn't (??), this year will be the year of the musical double-feature! That means every time you see music on this page moving forward, there will be TWO SONGS by the featured musician(s) to highlight the range of said musician(s). Also, it’s election year! Now, I don’t have the vote myself, but you’ll have me around as your comical, politically neutral, and stalwart companion while everybody else on Tumblr is being just about as polarizing as they can be without directly and openly supporting terrorist organizations on the left or right side of the political spectrum! It’s gonna be a great year with this dog n' this blog!

Alright, gettin’ sleepy over here… you guys can fuck off for now. MORE 0bjectivist! END OF MARCH! NEW ART!!! DOUBLE-FEATURE MUSIC SHOWCASES EVERY OTHER WEEK!!! MEMES AND GIFs!!! SNARKY-ASS COMMENTARY!!! AND MORE OF MY BALL-BITING ADORABLE ASS!!!

Best, Springin’ Chip

25’ PAGE UPDATE W/ PAGE MASCOT, SPRINGIN’ CHIP!

Heya folks! Page mascot Springin’ Chip back with a page update! This update is so important that I’m taking a five and one-half second break from obsessively licking out my sister’s infected ear canal. Absolutely NOTHING could possibly stop these deep, constant and passionate canine wet willies… UNTIL NOW. So, pay attention for a moment, because this update will make you mentally and perhaps physically climax and then bask in the post-nut afterglow you need to keep logging on to this pornbot infested platform we know as Tumblr.

If you wanna know how I am these days, I’m just fine, lots of joy over here as always for this pup! I’m still a smartass lil’ shithead whose too smart for his own good. I’m getting into lots of unnecessary conflicts with larger, monster-male dogs lately because I’ve developed a Napoleon complex which makes me insecure, jealous and aggressive. Give me a break folks, I’m a small dog/man! My testicles are literally forfeit these days, you’ve got to assert yourself somehow!!! It’s only a matter of time before a Doberman or Pitbull bites my cocky little jabroni ass, and rightfully so, and maybe then I’ll finally learn my lesson! But today I’m just here to drop a page update and then get right back to licking that sweet, sweet ear pus.

Some of you may be thinking as you’re reading this, “Why is this delusional asshole talking through his spaniel? Why in the name of all that is holy should I care about ear pus!? Please, for the love of God, go away!” Well, dear Tumblr, in the next few weeks we’re going to show you precisely WHY you should stick around, as th3-0bjectivist WILL BE BACK IN JUST LESS THAN A MONTH. This week and next, we’ll be offering a half-month blowout as a preview. Our Four-Item Itinerary for mid-2025 to beg-2026 is as such:

A. DROP ONE METRIC ASSLOAD OF NEW PAINTINGS. This year is all about personal artistic incrementalism and evolution. Original abstract paintings used to be REALLY popular on this page, still are, and we hate to sound like every other artist that has ever existed but we’re moving out of the abstract phase this year. However, to honor the past we’ll be posting abstract backgrounds which will serve as a mere base for at least six or seven fully realized fantasy-themed brush paintings! If you like the animated art on this page, you’re gonna get animated abstracts as well as fully realized moving art all year long! Lucky you! B. POST NOTHING BUT UNPOPULAR, BUT BRILLIANT MUSIC. As we’re getting a late start in 25’, we might as well reboot the musical rotation on this page by posting tracks by some of the most criminally underground musical artists imaginable. We’re only going to be posting music SO UNDERGROUND you can only find it on this blog, or on a few other dark corners of the internet, every two-to-three weeks! C. MAKE THE AUDIENCE LAUGH/PROMOTE THE EVERLOVING SHITE OUT OF OTHER ART BLOGS! Lots of memes and goofy horseshit from other, more comedic Tumblrs as usual moving forward! A time-honored tradition on this blog, to be sure. Also, lots of art is gonna be on display this year by Tumblr artists that have earned exposure and deserve respect for their skill and dedication to their craft. D. ABSOLUTELY NO INSUFFERABLE PARTISAN POLITICS. You know how these days every other person on this platform thinks they’re some kind of economic/political pundit as a result of the election!? We don’t do that here! Our politics are unimportant in the grand scheme of things, but our art is! That’s because art is resistance and immortality, folks! You want an interpretation on modern politics from this page!? Fine, but you’re going to have to painstakingly read between the lines because unlike other ‘art blogs’ I could mention, politics are not overtly expressed on this page to ensure maximal entertainment and satisfaction for EVERYONE who views it, and not just one wing, section or subsection of the modern political paradigm.

After the upcoming half-month preview, which we’re mostly doing just to measure the Tumblr winds and waters, we will then engage in a slow-motion rollout of content into early 26’. There will be absolutely no rushing of anything this year. So, enjoy folks! We love you! We miss posting to this platform, and as such, without further ado, let the half-month preview… begin! Oh, one last thing, folks! Check out our Deviant Art page, its full of crispy artgifs… far higher in quality than we can offer you with Tumblr’s arbitrary 10MB file size limit… and it serves as our full art gallery and online one-stop-shop. Now if you don’t mind, I’ve got a pus-filled ear canal to insert my bare tongue into for at least the next quarter-hour or so! It’s a living, folks! Happy 25’!

Stay chipper, Springin’ Chip

Holiday Cheers and page update from page mascot Springin' Chip!

Heya folks! Springin' Chip here with a final, holiday message in 24'. Just wanted to let all the English-literate dogs out there know that.... you're okay. You made it through this difficult year, and while I personally was having a *great time* as a puppy, some of you were suffering a great deal. I know that some of you may live the life of privilege or comfort, and that's just fine, but for those of you who don't live a 'living-my-best-life' life, just know, dogs like me love you, no matter who you are. Dogs like me don't care about elections, or human laws, or arbitrary human nonsense in general. We just love you; for who you are, for treats, food, communication and everything you personally provide for us. Into the New Year, if you're struggling to get through your work week... just bear in mind, that week will be done before you know it, and then it's the weekend again! The same is true for the next month, it'll be over before you even realize it! And maybe, just maybe, at the end of next year, you'll look back and proclaim, "That was a pretty good year for once because I wasn't dreading each and every minute of my existence!"

We're going to be doing a th3-0bjectivist Best of 24' (highest performing painting, highest performing art-gif, and highest performing drawing) for this page in the coming weeks, and then we're outta here for several months. Based on the way people generally treated each other on this platform in 24'... it's probably gonna be a good and full half-year or more before th3-0bjectivist generates enough inspiration to come back! Tumblr is generally kind of a reality escape-hatch for us and 24' was vitriolically and toxically political all the sudden... which was not fun by any stretch of the imagination. But folks, it's the holidays, time to put the knives away and at least pretend you love your neighbor. If you know you wronged someone this year, tell them you're sorry. If you alienated someone this year with your personal brand of political whinging, try to mend fences and find some common ground... you're gonna need unnatural allies if you expect to win elections in the future, folks! If you burned a bridge that is repairable, repair it! And if you're in personal despair, financial ruin, or you're having a tough time in life, just keep in mind Chipper the Springer Spaniel loves you. Yes, you, the person reading this. So, go out with an unexpected bang this year; tell another person you appreciate them for once.

One more song to post, and one more drawing to post for the year. That's it, we're almost outta gas over here and desperately need to recharge the mental battery. For the th3-0bjectivist and on behalf of my fellowship of canines, Happy New Year, folks!

Best,

Springin' Chip

[th3-0bjectivist]

So, folks, earlier this year I tried my hand at music creation and uh, it didn’t go so well! Long story short, I was completely out of my depth and ran into unforeseen issues which ran the gamut from software/hardware compatibility problems to the fact that I would have to spend some serious coin on instruments that I have absolutely no room for! For me to record the kind of music that I want to make, I estimated I’d have to spend several thousand dollars on a drum set for an organic sound, a good keyboard, microphones, amps and software. What I ended up creating were some beats using an electronic drum set (which I had to borrow incidentally) and some sequencer keys. I’ve always been personally drawn to playing percussion because I happen to be able to carry a decent beat. The track just above is the ONE AND ONLY piece of music you’ll ever hear that I personally made. I’ve decided to leave music to actual professionals and stick to what I’m actually good at (art, voice work, writing). I actually like how it turned out; it starts off kind of mystical and the tone is kind of menacing. That said, this post marks the beginning and end of my musical career. It was a very abbreviated career, but man, what a ride! And at least I tried something different this year! Smash play and enjoy dear listener!

Quick update w/ Springin' Chip

Heya folks, just a quick update today.

First, on a bright note, I’m officially a one-year-old. Happy birthday to me!

Th3-0bjectivist will start posting again next week. But the state we’re in (North Carolina) just got rocked by a hurricane. Th3-0 works for an environmental monitoring company and even though we haven’t been personally affected by the catastrophic flooding, the disaster site is within 100 miles from us, and we can tell you, it’s bad, REAL bad. With everything else going on in the world these days, it seems like stuff is stacking up and people out there seem very distracted on Tumblr, including us. Looks like we picked the WRONG year to post so much new art. It just seems a little irresponsible to post anything on social media when so many poor people right around us are currently suffering. As such, production of art will likely slow down a lot as we look for options to volunteer in Asheville, NC to help survivors out, clear some debris, and wait for this wretched election to pass before we get really serious about art production again. We might even take several months off social media near the end of the year to mentally recover from such peculiar times.

I’ll have a proper page update posted soon. This page will be switching into Halloween mode which will hopefully provide some fun for Tumblrs out there. That said, see you in a week or so, and if you’re in any of the regions that are affected by disasters or an impending WW3… just know we really don’t care about your politics… we just hope you’re okay.

Best, Springin’ Chip

I beat BG3 with a dragon-witch!

This isn’t my usual type of post, and I’m not even sure my normal audience is even going to understand what I’m talking about… but this weekend I beat Baldur’s Gate 3. I wanted to share some pretty screenshots with all of Tumblr.

After a full year of messing around with class/race combinations, and dying a lot, I created Xyrlara Drackonis (pictured above), a Draconic Bloodline half-elf pure sorceress.

I ended up liking Xyrlara and my in-game team and utilized the game’s rich mechanics to give her an interesting and fulfilling storyline complete with loss, love and struggle.

I managed to save enough to afford a new high-powered PC this year with the intention of capturing some gorgeous screenshots and doing video game reviews every few months in 25’ on Tumblr.

It took me over a year to beat BG3 on a single playthrough with no save-scumming.

According to Steam statistics, just under 25% of players have managed to ‘save the realm’!

Well, now I’ve done it, and I really enjoyed the game quite a bit except for a slightly wobbly Act 3 and a few bugs.

If this post gets enough hits (20 +), I'll think about doing a proper review for Tumblr. I have PLENTY more screenshots to share.

Needless to say, the fact that it took me a full year to beat means I know lots about it!

Glad I finally beat this badass little game. Would I recommend it? Hell yeah. The fact that I finally beat it means I WILL have a happy new year.

On to more games,

Chipper and Romi, A Love Story (and page update w/ Springin’ Chip)

Heya Tumblr folks, its page mascot Springin’ Chip here, and its autumn! And I’m in loooooove. Met a young woman. Her name is Romi. Young love is painful, folks. It’s supposed to teach you lessons that’ll help you adjust as an adult. And let me tell ya, there’s lots of pain in this relationship! So far, Romi and I enjoy playfully fighting in the park, late-night sleepovers, and deep talks about our future and the nature of the universe. It’s good to find something positive in 2024! I hope you had little specs of happiness this year as well. ANYWAYS, onto the brief page update.

So, folks, we’re going to be taking election week entirely off, maybe two weeks. When we get back, we’ll have three more songs to post and a few more paintings/drawings in 24’. Why take election week off you ask?? Well, primarily because partisan politics completely ruined Tumblr this year. It literally sucked all the fun out of everything and turned some usually normal people who we follow(ed) into shrieking, insufferable, irrational, pants-shitting dipshits. There’s nothing more useless than keyboard activism, and when we log in to Tumblr, we’re mostly looking for something that helps us mentally escape the harsh reality we’re living in. I mean, folks, as a dog, I really couldn't care less how you vote. What you do in the voting booth, just like in your bed, is none of my damn business. I followed your blog because I think you create exceptional art, or take excellent pictures, or generate excellent poetry, or make quality sounds, or because you have some hidden X factor, or because I think you’re a goddamned bona fide genius. I do NOT come to Tumblr for politics for several reasons, but mostly because… no one on here is a political expert and I’d rather not know how you vote at all. I’d rather you keep me guessing at how you vote and keep that to yourself. If for no other reason, because your politics matter to you, and I appreciate a bit of mystique.

Th3-0 wants me to tell you he early voted in North Carolina today. He said it was easy; he showed up early, he’d done his research beforehand, so he knew how he wanted to vote, it took like ten minutes. It was like, zip-zip-zip. The people at the voting site were friendly, the ballot process was streamlined. You don’t need to know how th3-0bjectivist votes. All you need to do is stop telling others how to vote and go out and vote. If you’re with friends or family that haven’t voted, tell them, “Okay c’mon! We’re all gonna go vote now!” Stop whining, stop whinging, and just go and vote folks. These last six months have been exhausting and demoralizing for the entire US. And if your side loses, learn how to lose with grace. Don’t let them see you sweat and think to yourself; what did my side do wrong to lose this election!?

Depending on the seismic reaction after the election, it could be up to two weeks until this blog is back up folks. Just please, grip fast to your mental health, hold your nose, and treat each other with respect. This year has been crazy enough. There’s no need to get crazier. th3-0bjectivist’s blog will be back for about two months and then after that we’re gonna take a LONGASS break from this platform to recover from the wretched, traumatizing, ass-ramming partisan shitstorm that was 24’.

Alt-links below in case you miss th3-0.

Stop bitchin' and just vote, Springin’ Chip

[th3-0bjectivist]

Dear listener, if I wasn’t trying to entertain an audience on this platform with a variety page, all I would post is metal music, all the time. Why? Because metal is my favorite type of music and has been since I was sixteen. I grew up listening to lots of sludge metal, like Crowbar and Mastodon. I still love immortal tunes by iconic heavy metal acts like Judas Priest. If it weren’t for bands like Slayer, I would never have gotten to experience the extreme highs and lows of thrash and death metal! But you know what I don’t like? Modern metalcore. Seriously, most of it really, really sucks, folks. To instantly access metalcore that doesn’t eat shit, all you must do is take a listen at some of the great bands that invented and popularized it. Zao practically started metallic hardcore, along with a handful of other equally distinguished groups, which is simply a merger between metal and hardcore punk. Just above, you’ll find The Rising End (The First Prophecy) from their 2004 album The Funeral of God. Once you smash play and discover for the first time what quality metalcore is, you will no doubt join me below for more if you enjoyed it.

Metal is defined by many facets, but for me it comes down to guitar solos, lyrics that are heavy on imagery, intense aggression, and powerful drumming. Most of the metal music that I personally listen to has a galloping quality; immersing the listener and making them feel as if they are riding on a steel-armored steed that is charging toward an epic battlefield. Metal is the only type of music I’ll listen to without being able to fully understand what the lead vocalist is screaming, as much of the lyrics aren’t necessarily comprehensible without looking online for the stanzas. Zao does all of these things very, very well, and blends in a little hardcore punk for audial variety and inventiveness. This is probably the closest thing to a Christian band I’ll ever post on my page, as Zao’s original works were thematically ‘Christ-centered’. Their overall catalog, however, is clearly divided into different eras, with completely different band members and shifts in tone from one era to the next. This isn’t Christian metal, they only started off that way. Upon listening to many of their full albums in preparation for this post, I can tell you, this band has simply become one of grand storytelling. The lyrics are often poetic, thoughtful and majestic. Their lead vocalist does something other metalcore leads don’t do; NOT sound like the Cookie Monster on bath salts or a whiny pop band-reject on a heavy dose of autotune. This is a rare group that manages to establish atmosphere alongside raw intensity, unclean vocals, and a sprawling and complex story to tell, filled with glimmers of lore and intrigue. Zao brings strong material into a type of music that has largely become flabby, lame, diluted and fundamentally weak in the last decade and a half. Metalcore was once fresh and experimental, and groups like this were and are still the torchbearers ensuring it has some semblance of an enduring future. Just below, you can smash play on The Final Ghost from their 2021 album The Crimson Corridor and enjoy metalcore in its most resplendent form.

The next time one of your senseless friends starts playing ‘music’ by metalcore groups like Lamb of God… immediately tell them you WILL NOT STAND for this insulting sound, flog them, tell them their taste in music is questionable and that the lead singer sounds like a pissed-off Cookie Monster. And then ask, “If you’re going to put metalcore on, can you at least put on some good metalcore!?” And then, when they ignorantly ask what good metalcore is, you can tell them, Zao. And tell them your pal, th3-0bjectivist on Tumblr, evangelized you in The School of Quality Music while you’re at it.
