Making Art

A painting of a female figure which I created live on Rumble. This painting is made with acrylic and ink on 16x12" canvas. I really enjoyed painting this because I rarely paint in black and white grayscale tones outside of sketches and drawings. My brain naturally goes towards bright colorful palettes, but I decided to try something different after my last painting, which had the background in gray tones. It turned out to be a really fun, pleasurable learning experience and I plan to do more paintings in grayscale and black and white.

Painting Mandalas is a good way to enter a flow state for me. It provides a certain amount of stability with which I can inject spontaneity. No two are ever the same because they are influenced by the present moment and the flux of environmental conditions and the shifting mental state of the creator. I find the process relaxing, expressive, and reflective, and I enjoy it. I often make mandalas, and other doodles, in my down time. Sometimes, as is the case with this one, these preliminary doodles also become paintings later. This one is 12x12" acrylic and ink on unstretched canvas. This project has turned into a daily practice which I call 'Morning Mandalas'. I make a mandala every morning and post it onto my Locals channel for my community. Join my Locals community, I plan to make more and more content there. Much of my artwork becomes available for purchase at https://michaelkeane.art/shop Thank you for your support and viewership.

'Art Talk' is what I call videos where I talk about topics related to art. In this video I chat a bit about why I think that Art is an Infinite Game, why that is important, even beneficial. Understanding the differences between a finite and an infinite game is important, because they operate on different rules and with different mindsets. Featuring a clip by Simon Sinek for illustrative purposes on this subject.

I painted this on a paper bag I got from the grocery store. I'm trying to upcycle things and turn them into art mediums instead of throwing them out. I've been doing sketches and doodles during my downtime at work, so I decided to paint one onto this paper bag. Gesso and acrylic paint on paper bag.

I painted this in April during a Rumble Raid event. I imagined a Rumble Raider, skeletal pirate figure, busting in with his pirate crew for the raid. Thanks again to Chris Pavlovski and the whole Rumble crew for facilitating these amazing community events and for supporting streamers on their platform. Rumble is truly the best platform in my mind, and I am excited to continue creating content on here.

Just wanted to drop in and make a short video where I quickly chat about Rumble, my new creative space, and what I hope to bring to the Rumble platform while I continue to make content here. ✌️

I made this painting during the first Rumble Raid which took place. I wanted to make a Rumble inspired painting. Creating and recording videos has had a transformative effect on my painting and creative process. Rumble is an inspiring platform to me due to their values and the ways in which they strive to empower individual creators. In today's world, this is invaluable and quite inspiring to me. This painting takes some inspiration from the pirate and rum imagery which Rumble has embraced on social media. Rumble is definitely coming after that Youtube loot, and I think they will displace Youtube as the dominant force in video media online eventually. Their plans are epic and I can't wait to see them unfold and participate in my own way.

This is a 16x12" acrylic and ink painting on a canvas board. This piece began by painting over a previous painting created years ago by myself; it was a portrait of a roommate from many years ago. That painting which no longer served me or fulfilled my aesthetic sensibilities will now lie entombed under this new artistic offering. This is another entry in a series of trippy drippy eyes which I like to create, symbolizing the fluidity of consciousness and reality which the artist is able to perceive and tap into at will. Painting over old paintings is important to me. Not only does this advance upon works which do not hold enough weight to me, but it also imbues new pieces with a hidden energy which lies below the surface, known only to the creator. Sometimes, this adds an important amount of Impasto to the painting above. I personally really enjoy painting on a canvas or object which already has marks applied to it, as opposed to a fresh canvas. It creates another creative dimension which subtly interacts with the process, and it can require more creative fluidity in order to work with this added dimension. Perhaps most importantly, it saves money and recycles important art materials, allowing for stronger pieces to come into creation.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am the biggest Rumble supporter they know. I have put my money where my mouth is, became an investor in Rumble, and even went all-in by creating a channel for my art in order to try to bring the arts to Rumble and participate in my own small way. Every day that goes by reinforces that I have made the right decision with such positive feedback. Recently, CEO Chris Pavlovski has been doing Rumble raids, raiding streamers on the platform and leaving huge Rumble Rants and donations. To see this type of support from the CEO of a company for the small users, is unprecedented and amazing. Yesterday on Easter, he and Steve aka Stevewilldoit once again raided the streams. After streaming for 4 hours working on a painting I developed specifically for the event I decided to take a break and to my surprise I was raided, maybe just minutes after turning my stream off! I wish I had stayed on a bit longer simply to react and give my profound appreciation to you guys in person, and to say how much I appreciate Rumble. But it really made me feel like my work was appreciated seeing this happen. I just want to express my gratitude to Chris and Steve and Rumble and the entire Rumble community. I have found everyone to be the most supportive, awesome group of humans. I will be using this donation to upgrade every aspect of my Rumble channel and livestream over the coming couple of months. Thank you to everyone who tuned in during my livestream and Happy Easter.

This is an original acrylic painting on 12" x 12" canvas. It is a blast over of an old canvas which had been used as an experiment. I love painting over canvas, and painting on top of things which already have been marked, either by myself or someone else. I started this painting during the middle of a live stream this past week on my Rumble channel. This painting is an abstract experiment of some faces. Enjoy.

I recorded this video about 10 days ago, but haven't had the chance to upload it until today. But a question is still burning hot on my mind. This question is: What are the chances that the UFC and Rumble team up in the future? In the video, I go over some data points which lead me to believe that this partnership is indeed a possibility. Since making this video, I have also noticed that there is a new UFC-specific button on the homepage of Rumble, further fueling my speculations. Do I know what I am talking about? Not really - But I want to hear what YOU think about this. What do you think the chances are? Does it make sense for the UFC to move to Rumble when their contract expires? This would be a power move, and a 'powerslap' if you will, to traditional media. It would make some serious waves if it happened. Remember, this is not financial advice, simply pure speculation on my part. I am but a humble Rumble creator, supporter, and investor who is hoping this speculation might materialize one day. Let me know what you think in the comments, please! I would love to hear your thoughts on the matter.

This is an original acrylic painting on 12x16" canvas. The subject in this painting has an angelic quality with blossoming wings. Angels are an interesting symbol which I like to utilize in art sometimes. I have had my own share of spiritual experiences and the experiences of angelic beings of light during my life and sometimes I enjoy painting them because they hold a power and potency to them. This painting I tried to utilize the acrylic paints as if they were watercolors, which is a fun way to paint with acrylic. Enjoy.

This original painting is an 18x24" acrylic and ink on canvas painting. To me, it is reminiscent of stained glass windows. Perhaps this crystalline, colorful landscape exists within the inner world of our consciousness. Stained glass was traditionally used in buildings and meant to initiate a mystical experience through its beauty and the way it captured the light. But do we need to seek outside for what exists naturally within? This painting involved a different, new process for me. It took me about a month to create it over a number of painting sessions. I am always experimenting with new styles and processes and this painting was a good exercise in blending acrylics. Enjoy!

Here is a sped up time-lapse video displaying the process of a painting I made. This original painting was made with acrylic paint and ink on a 11x14" Canvas. Aliens are an important part of my symbolic library as I have had powerful UFO experiences in my lifetime. I sometimes enjoy painting them in place of normal human figures. I also often prefer painting figures which are depicted in non-traditional humanoid colors, such as blue, purple, etc., because they do not denote a specific race or ethnic origin. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that we ourselves are, indeed, alien. This particular figure's consciousness is alert, awakened, and open wide.

Here is a sped up time-lapse video displaying the process of a painting I made. This original painting was made with acrylic paint and ink on a 12x12" Canvas. Eyes are important symbols for consciousness and vision. For me, they also represent visionary states and the experience of having them. They are one of my favorite things to paint because of their complexity and because in many cultures they represent the 'windows to the soul.'

Here is a sped up time-lapse video displaying the process of a painting I made. This is one of the last paintings I made in 2022. It didn't have a purpose or a point, mostly it was an exploration, kind of like a doodle. It reminds me of some sort of fabric, hence the name. Sometimes it is just fun to paint and experiment.

A slideshow of some of the paintings which I created this year. I'm happy to say that the majority of these pieces also have timelapse videos which go along with them, which you can find right here on my Rumble channel and where you can see me paint them. Note: All of these pictures in this video have 'digitally edited frames' added to them which are not part of the actual paintings themselves. They were added just for fun, for better or for worse. I'm looking forward to a new year of even bigger things on my Rumble channel and in my creative practice. Thanks Rumble community!

In this video I am simply commenting and providing my opinion on what I see to be the main claims put forward in the Rumble vs. Google lawsuit and complaint. These are simply my personal opinions, I am not an expert, nor am I a financial or legal analyst. This is just my personal research into this topic which I am sharing and adding my commentary to. I am feeling very positive about the possibilities of the antitrust lawsuits against Google. I think if they are successful, then they will reshape the entire mobile phone and tech ecosystem. What do you think? Do you think these lawsuits have any weight to them? If successful, I can see Google being forced to change their business practices, such as how they construct their contracts to be non-exclusionary and competitive. This could create inroads for competition such as Rumble. I can foresee a day when Rumble comes preinstalled on mobile devices instead of an uninstallable Youtube app forced onto the home page of your device. What are your thoughts on this topic? Let me know in the comments what you think. As always, do your own research and don't trust a thing I say, because what do I know?
