Found a couple of cool illustrators via this YouTube playlist named ‘illustratori’, which I’m assuming is Italian for ‘illustrators’:
Here are the highlights of what I found
- Mirko Hanak: Cool illustrator that emphasizes the watercolor WITHOUT an outline, very cool and unique:

- Syd Mead: Cool sci-fi illustrator into retro futurism kind of art:

- Chesley Bonestell: Cool sci-fi illustrator into sci-fi type backgrounds:

- Zdzislaw Beksinski (I like the color usage, but dang is this guy’s work dreary and death based)

- Dan McPharlin: Cool sci-fi type illustrator:

Inspiring stuff for the most part.
In terms of Linux stuff, I tried installing Emacs on ScPup64 aka a derivative of Slacko Puppy Linux this week, and its been a mess trying to find the different dependencies present even with help on their forums.
Going to just stick with Manjaro for the time being until I can MAYBE find a Puppy or Dog Linux derivative that has Emacs 27+ by default.
