Surreal painting of a dazzle camouflage test
new favourite painting is this one by James Yunge-Bateman of dazzle camoflague being tested on model ships in a pool on the roof of the navy's camoflague testing department in Leamington Spa during WW2. this is both a true-to-life and purely surrealist painting

Great interview with Gideon the Ninth cover artist Tommy Arnold
Packed with anecdotes about the people that helped him when he was starting out, and the issues he's faced as a professional:
In art, there is so much room at the top. People have been a little afraid about that because of AI, it seems like, but there's pretty much a whole world of artists that are pretty good, but that you could switch out with each other. And then there's the people that are always busy, and the people that are always busy: there's not enough of them to do all the work. That's why they're always busy.
...
Recently, I was doing a job negotiation with a company on doing the cover art for a big video game release, but they didn’t want to pay the same rate that we had used in the past. They were a little tight on money on this project and normally the contract is written to say that I can't show the work I do for them. This time though, I said if they wanted me to come down on the rate, they would need to allow me to show this publicly later, (which has a huge marketing value to me because it's a game that millions of people play), and be able to go, “Hey, I did this.” So, they agreed and we got it approved that way.

The LA Times wrote about the updated version of Disneyland's Haunted Mansion
LAT (plenty of photos):
The last time the attic received a major overhaul was in the mid-2000s, and that figure, known as the “black widow bride,” had a more aggressive, sinister story to tell. Holding an ax, she was portrayed as a murderous, wealth-seeking seductress who had beheaded her husbands, evident by their heads disappearing from the wedding portraits scattered around the attic. Those pictures are still present, only now the full bodies of the men vanish — leaving their departure up to the imagination.
Irvine said the attic scene was redone, in part, because the projection technology on the prior figure had become so outdated as to necessitate regular maintenance. But rather than update what was there, [Disneyland Creative Director] saw an opportunity to add a greater contrast with the more festive waltz in the prior room as well as to embellish the Mansion’s tale.
...
“The bride that used to be in there was an ax murderer, and in this day and age we have to be really careful about the sensitivities of people,” [Creative Director] said. “We were celebrating someone chopping off her husband’s heads, and it was a weird story.
