A Sign That Says Selfie Adventure On It Art

An Asian Slice
At the dark end of an alley on a moonless night,
A youth squats low to the ground, turned toward the wall with his face in his lap.  Someone might think he’s sleeping.  He’s smoking heroin.  Soon he’ll fall over and soil himself, and stay right there until dawn.

Back at the neon-lit mouth of this dark alley, 
hookers walk back and forth, hurrying to get past the alley, either for fear or because is smells so bad.  Eyelids, all painted golden, Asian whores always look like they’re made of candy.  Candy it is; but a snarling cat awaits its prey.
At his Grandmother's house in Penang, Wing Sun is seated at a table in the dining room, with the kitchen in view.  Grandmother is sitting at the table telling Wing Sun a story from the Bible.  The house is cozy, and it's raining outside.  There is an air of suspense, but Wing Sun feels safe and secure.

A vivid and artistic depiction of the Monoceros constellation as a majestic mythical unicorn, with its body, horn, mane, and legs formed by bright, glowing stars connected by ethereal golden lines to outline the shape. The unicorn appears dynamic and ethereal, galloping through the cosmos, surrounded by swirling clouds of colorful stardust, nebulae in shades of blue, purple, and pink, and scattered distant stars in a deep black space background. Render in a fantasy astronomy style, high detail, cosmic glow, and magical atmosphere.

    A breathtaking, full-size artistic sculpture of a standing buffalo, rendered entirely in the style of intricate, luminous glass art, reminiscent of the painted buffalo installations found in West Yellowstone art shows. The buffalo's form is composed of countless individual pieces of vibrant, multifaceted stained glass or fused glass, meticulously cut, arranged, and joined, creating a cohesive and majestic shape.

    Instead of traditional paint, the entire surface of this glass buffalo is adorned with various miniature, finely detailed scenes and patterns etched, painted, or embedded within the glass itself, or created by the unique coloration and texture of the glass pieces. These scenes could depict:

        Western landscapes: Yellowstone's geysers, mountain ranges, pine forests, rivers.

        Wildlife: Elk, bears, wolves, eagles (in glass).

        Native American art motifs: Geometric patterns, symbols, and figures (also rendered in glass).

        Historical moments: Subtle nods to early explorers or iconic figures (stylized in glass).

    The buffalo's interior is subtly illuminated, causing the entire sculpture to glow from within. Light catches every facet of the glass, creating a dazzling play of refracted colors and intricate shadows on the ground around it. The background is a clean, modern art gallery setting with soft, focused lighting, allowing the buffalo to be the sole, radiant centerpiece. The atmosphere is one of awe, wonder, and appreciation for artistic craftsmanship and the spirit of the American West, reimagined through a unique, luminous medium. The artistic style is hyper-realistic, emphasizing the detailed texture, transparency, and brilliant light play inherent in glass art."
Epic Landscape Photography Style, Wide-Angle Lens, Golden Hour Lighting. A profound, sweeping photograph of a single, colossal ancient Eastern Cottonwood tree standing isolated in the center of a vast expanse of the Nebraska rolling highlands (Sandhills).

The Tree: It is massive and gnarled, a true sentinel of the plains, with a thick, deeply fissured trunk and sprawling, asymmetrical branches shaped by years of constant wind.

The Environment: The surrounding landscape is a sea of undulating, gentle hills covered in knee-high mixed-grass prairie that glows coppery-gold and sage-green in the late afternoon light. The grasses are visibly swaying in the breeze. A faint, winding dirt track leads toward the horizon.

The Sky & Light: The sky is immense and dramatic, taking up two-thirds of the frame, filled with textured cumulus clouds catching the brilliant oranges, deep purples, and soft pinks of the sunset. The light is warm, casting long shadows across the folds of the hills. The mood is quiet, vast, and solitary.

        Iconic Yellowstone landscapes: Old Faithful erupting in miniature, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, geothermal pools.

        Local wildlife: Elk, bears, wolves, eagles (all rendered in the glass medium).

        Native American art motifs: Geometric patterns, symbols, and figures (also within the glass).

    The buffalo's interior is subtly illuminated, causing the entire sculpture to glow from within, acting as a beacon of art and nature. Light catches every facet of the glass, creating a dazzling play of refracted colors that project intricate patterns onto the surrounding natural environment.

    The setting is the glory of Yellowstone National Park, specifically an expansive, iconic vista. Perhaps in a verdant meadow with distant geysers steaming, or near a crystal-clear river. The morning sun, bright and golden, backlights the buffalo, intensifying its inner glow and creating a dramatic contrast with the rugged, natural beauty of the park. The atmosphere is one of awe, harmony between art and nature, and a profound celebration of the spirit of the American West. The artistic style is hyper-realistic, emphasizing the detailed texture, transparency, and brilliant light play inherent in glass art, seamlessly integrated into a vibrant, natural landscape.

An outdoor scene in at the beach.  A White Mom and African-American Dad walk away from the camera with their two kids, all holding hands.  The mood is warm and safe.  The sun is setting in the distance.  Everyone is wearing beach-style clothes, not bathing suits.  It's a pretty happy family.

Luminous Storybook Illustration Style, Rich Color Saturation, Magical Realism. A dramatic, painterly scene capturing the precise moment of tragic error on an old, mossy stone bridge spanning a calm river at sunset.

The Reality (The Dog on the Bridge): A scruffy, hungry-looking terrier stands frozen mid-snarl on the edge of the bridge, looking downward. Its mouth is wide open in an aggressive bark. Suspended in mid-air, just inches below its open jaws, a real, decent-sized meaty bone is falling toward the water. The dog’s expression is a mix of greed and sudden confusion.

The Illusion (The Reflection): The surface of the river below is glassy and still, acting like a perfect, deceptive mirror. The reflection shows the same dog, but the reflected bone in its mouth appears impossibly huge, glistening, and juicier than the real one. The reflection is almost hypnotically bright, brighter than the reality above the water. The warm golden light of the setting sun makes the water shimmer invitingly.

Father and Grandmother with Siu Zi leaving their home in a Guangzhou street in the dark of night.  There is an air of secrecy. Siu Zi clutches her small bag, its contents little more than a few treasured keepsakes and faded photographs. Her father’s reassuring hand on her shoulder, and the soft presence of her grandmother at his side, give her the courage to move forward. A taxi waits down the street to take them to the train.

Oil Painting Art Style, a detailed male Northern Bobwhite Quail, its distinctive head markings and feather patterns clearly rendered with rich brushwork, peeking from behind a cluster of vivid, textured fall leaves on the ground. The quail's eyes are sharp and alert. Behind it, an old, weathered, rustic red barn is depicted with strong brushstrokes, showing its aged timber and flaking paint, under a slightly overcast, softly lit autumn sky. The setting is a quintessential Eastern farm in the mountains of Tennessee, with the surrounding hills hinted at in deep, autumnal tones. Focus on the tactile quality of the painted textures, the depth and richness of the autumn colors, and the enduring charm of the rural scene.

Exodus 28:31-34 KJV
And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.  And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an habergeon, that it be not rent.
  And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
 A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.
