I paint in oil. Inspired by time, silence, and light. Each work is unique and for sale in Bitcoin. β†’ https://isolabellart.it.com Paintings notes: #isolabellart Art gallery: https://gallery.isolabellart.it.com
image A storm was coming. The people on the beach didn't seem to care. The sunset kept burning anyway. That's what I wanted to paint. Not the threat. Not the calm. Both at the same time. This is how DESPITE begins. Still rough, still finding its way. But the light is already there. Work in progress. #art #artstr #isolabellart

image I just realized I've painted more than 100 paintings in 4 years. I didn't set out to reach that number. I just kept painting. And one day I looked back and they were there. I don't know what to call it β€” discipline, obsession, need. Maybe all three. But mostly I feel wonder. The quiet kind, that arrives without warning. #art #artstr #isolabellart
EXTENDED It's my favorite feed on #Wisp, because it's nice to be able to rely on the choices of those you follow and it's a way to discover new people. image
I’m rewatching the TV series Lost, and I remembered it completely differently. It’s as if I’m watching it for the first time. image
Yesterday I startled a cardiac surgeon by talking about Bitcoin. He argued it’s dangerous because it’s intangible, digital. I pointed out that his euros in the bank are too β€” with the difference that his can be frozen at any moment. There was that strange silence where neither side is really wrong. Then I thought about it more. It’s not just about freedom. It’s about weight. Bitcoin doesn’t simply make you free. It makes you fully responsible. If you make a mistake, you pay. If you lose it, it’s gone. If you sign, it’s final. No one steps in. No one fixes it. No one forgives it. The banking system, instead, is a softer cage: it limits you, yes… but sometimes it also protects you from yourself. The truth is less heroic than we like to tell it: not everyone actually wants that kind of freedom. And not everyone is ready to carry its cost. Maybe it’s not about choosing a side. But about knowing when it makes sense to trust others… and when to accept being completely on your own.
BREACH is taking shape. The rocks are finding their place. The light is starting to come through the arch. There's still a lot to do. But the painting is starting to tell me what it wants. That's when I know it's going somewhere. Work in progress. #art #artstr #isolabellart View quoted note β†’
