### **“Why Art?” 🖼️ w/ SHILLR feat.** [molly\_mccutch](https://twitter.com/molly_mccutch)**:**

![](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c2418632-6915-4314-a671-ac0125fad3e1_1188x881.png)

During our captivating discussion on Why Art? with SHILLR, Molly McCutch provided a truly distinctive perspective, redefining the essence of being an artist.

_“To be an artist is to kind of like,just constantly live and work in a plane of reality. Like you really see everything for what it really is and you can feel things on certain levels that most humans choose not to feel.And I think it's a privilege that you got yourself there in the first place to live that way and accept that mindset and experience those things.” - Molly McCutch, Why Art? w/ SHILLR._

### **“PROMPT3D” 🤖 w/ SHILLR feat.** [Nate\_\_Talbot](https://twitter.com/Nate__Talbot) | Presented by DeviantArt**:**

![](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/3114c261-742a-463e-8226-e0cf882777e5_1182x880.png)

Delving into new artistic realms, Nate Talbot shares his perspective on embracing discomfort and venturing from 3D to AI art on PROMPT3D, presented by DeviantArt:

_“I feel like all artists do this. They rely on their techniques that bring them comfort. But I think it's really good to explore different mediums of expression and different ways of expressing yourself because, I feel like you just can't take the artist out of the art, no matter how hard you try. Like even with AI art where the human is like half of it. So it's always good to experiment in different mediums, and that will ultimately end up changing the way you approach the medium that you're most comfortable in.” - Nate Talbot, PROMPT3D w/ SHILLR | Presented by_ [_DeviantArt_](https://www.deviantart.com/)_._

### [**art gm #74 - Jenna Dixon:** Photographer & Adventurer 📸](https://twitter.com/bernardo_cafe/status/1658875724802019328)

![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/9aec8493-03da-480b-9f5f-0e658625a173_2048x1876.jpeg "Image")

1/ Jenna is a landscape & adventure photographer who captures remote, cold & mountainous areas which highlight the rawness of the natural elements. Jenna focuses both on taking breathtaking images as well as storytelling, creating written word descriptions for many of her photos.

![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/16ba8c1c-2954-48af-9570-0e1ad0926134_2048x1368.jpeg "Image")

2/ I vibe with Jenna's work because her photos feel like a documentary of an adventurous life experienced. The way she captures the magnitude of different moments, often placing a human subject in the photo for size reference, is truly breathtaking & inspires me to get outdoors.

![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/35c2e2c2-55ee-49d2-969d-ee8af9f1226f_1748x2048.jpeg "Image")

3/ A great entry into Jenna's work is through ['Sometime Around Midnight'](https://opensea.io/assets/ethereum/0x3a32539bf751c8c317d19d1e89c0d64bd8560b23/1)(Opensea link). I absolutely love how Jenna frames this photo, the water creating a visual pathway up the image & along the mountain curve to eventually point at the moon.

4/ If I had unlimited ETH I would cop ['The Escapist'](https://superrare.com/0x50275ddb84b0c9e0da778bc7d2879e2e73048247/the-escapist-2) (SuperRare link). A photo & message about transforming between escaping to the mind into escaping to the unknown of the world. I see the cave opening resembling a human mind, the waterfall splitting past from present.

5/ You should scope out Jenna's work because it's a beautiful reminder of the places we can go, the resilience of the human body and the immeasurable power of our planet. Jenna's photos are the visualization of nature calling out at us to explore & escape through adventure.
