barry horowitz

I cracked 2 big nuts regarding the #merch #business I’m working on: 1) using one Affinity template file to create multiple products AND their #mockups, and 2) using #Google Sheets, Docs, and Scripts to create copy for every product (title, categories, tags, & descriptions for each type of merch). Ideally I’d be able to pull the data into #WordPress, but that’s a nut to be cracked at a later date, once I’m done pulling a #BarryHorowitz.

Hi, I’m Arp! I got diagnosed with ADHD at 49, and now I'm trying to figure out what's me, what's masking, and just about everything else. I make comics (when imposter syndrome isn't striking) and write about life as a creative Indian-American. I’m self-taught, self-employed, and self-flagellating.

More Notes & Asides

Why the hell is #Estonia’s #Eurovision song stuck in my head?! Do I need to do some #Borat dancing to free myself from its clutches? #ESC #ESC2024 #Eurovision2024

X-men 2000 movie poster. The poster is divided into 5 columns, broken up by a black band with ‘X-MEN’ in the middle. Above & below the word, each column shows a partial face of 10 different characters.
We watched the 2000 #Xmen movie last night. The technology was a bit dated, as expected. The cgi was pretty good for the era, but I really wish they’d used a character besides Toad, who I find gimmicky. The story holds up, and holds up a mirror too. I always liked that they went straight for using the Mutant Registration Act as the main storyline instead of an origin tale. Has X-men historically appealed to LGBTQ comic lovers who could relate to their struggles for acceptance? The protests & attitudes against mutants also made me think of the trans community today, and the genocide the GOP & their fascist kin are attempting with all their laws, dog whistles, and stochastic terrorism. The #movie feels quaint, compared to modern times where these people do much, much worse than protest with signs. #movies #comics #comicbooks

punk poster art
I had a LOT of fun making this with #greenroomireland‘s #punk #AffiinityDesigner assets. All strokes, graphics, & #textures are from their asset pack, except for the font (Futura) and the #skull, which is that of a modern cotton-top #tamarin (I took the photo at #Duke #Lemur Center’s cute little #museum). #greenroommedia #digitalart #textures #digitalillustrator #DigitalArt #MastoArt #Affinity #lowbrowart #lowbrowartist #posterdesign

#Music is healing. Or is laughter the best medicine?
