J. M. Hurowitz - Untitled - 2024 - pencil on paper - 44 x 30 inches

Began this piece the later part of 2023, and completed it today. Read what you will in to it. Art should make the viewer think. All thoughts are valid.

For Mother's Day, my sister and I took our mom to the park to paint.

My sister and I painted landscapes.

While my mother waited us painting.

“Hometown Chandelier” is now for sale! This 34x34” collage of hand painted and magazine cut out squares on recycled canvas is ready for a new home! DM me if you can see this on your walls!

"Hometown Chandelier" is inspired by the ceiling tiles at Union Station in Kansas City. I had to do some trial and error when it came to finding colors and textures that I liked for each square. The final product has 1,156 individual one inch squares. Some are from interior design magazines, cookbooks, children's books and others were hand painted. In the process of finding the right ones, I'm sure I cut out over two thousand squares- maybe some you'll see in a future artwork! As much as I try to prepare, creating is always a learning process, one I appreciate when it's finished because now I know and I had fun doing it. I look forward to continuing this style I never thought I would be interested in and seeing where it takes me. Stay tuned to see where it goes!

J. M. Hurowitz - Untitled - 2023 - pencil on paper - 22.5 x 30 inches

This is my most recent work, done specifically for a friend's 60th birthday. Like my other drawings, there are references to art, literature, science, history and other personal interests, as well as images with no special significance other than the fact that I felt like including them. And like my other drawings, my hope is that anyone viewing this work will take the time to make their own connections and interpretations.

lead balloon (the tumblr post that saved me)

if this comic resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you donated to this palestinian family's escape fund.

--

no creative notes because this isn't that kind of comic.

I know I don’t owe any of you anything but I still felt compelled to write about my long term absence. And I feel far enough away from the dangerous spot I was in to be able to make this comic. I have a therapist now, and she agreed that making this could be a very cathartic gesture, and the start of properly leaving these thoughts behind me. I am still, at seemingly random times, blindsided by fleeting desires to kill myself. They’re always passing urges, but it’s disarming, and uncomfortable. I worry sometimes that my brain’s spent so long thinking only about suicide that it’s forgotten how to think about anything else. Like, now that I've opened that door for myself, I'll never be able to fully shut it again. But I’m trying my best to encourage my mind in other directions. We'll see how that goes.

I am still donating all proceeds from my store to Palestinian causes. So far, I've donated over $15K, not including donations coming from my own pocket or the fundraising streams which jointly raised around $10K. In the time since I made my initial post about where this money would be going, the focus has shifted from aid organisations to directly donating to escape funds.

If you'd like to do the same, you can look at Operation Olive Branch, which hosts hundreds of Palestinian escape funds or donate to Safebow, which has helped facilitate the safe crossing and securing of important medical procedures for over 150 at-risk palestinians since the beginning of the genocide.

#cw: suicidal ideation #cw: suicide #cw: self harm #cw: mental health #cw: depression #i made the balloon the main representation of my self destructive urges for a reason but im not going to explain it #i tried to keep a lot of the details in this vague #it would be my worst nightmare if this comic encouraged someone to hurt themselves #so. please dont #for a long time even the thought of making this comic felt so insipid and narcissistic #with the state of the world as it is #having the only threat to your life be yourself felt so privileged and trite and shameful #but doing this comic made me sit down and process things in full #and im just. very grateful i didn't give in to my thoughts back when i sincerely felt i'd be more useful to the world dead #i also feel the need to say that this wont represent everyone's battle with mental illness. its unfortunately different for all of us #there is no fix-all #and im afraid this might be one of those comics that either resonates a lot or misses the target by a mile #i made it for myself foremost. and now that its done im glad i did it #thank you for reading #and please stay alive #stillindigo art #stillindigo comics

Messing with polymer clay again. Trying figures not just shapes for jewelry.

Ran out of black for the arms, and the legs need to be closer and taper to the ankle. I could just redo the body, but I'm not. I want to do a bunch of them and see my progression.

This isn't about perfection it's about doing it.

He has a belly pad and ear pads. I need to pick a color for them. In all my sketches and drawings I keep it black and white but now that I've made him brown, I want to change that. But I need a clor that fits.

Choosing what eyes he needs. He feeds to look out of it, lost.
