Loren

Well I finally deleted my reddit account, and all of my subreddits, so I guess an introduction is in order! Hi everybody! I'm an artist, and occasionally a writer. I wrote for a progressive publication for about 6 years, and learned a lot in the process, but haven't written much since. Here's [an article I wrote in 2017 about decentralized social media](https://medium.com/@lorenhall-47992/the-future-of-social-media-pt-1-originally-published-2017-aa55ad840ee). Please be kind, I had only been writing for a little over a year at that point! But let's focus on THIS point in time right now, the one where we are actually seeing what I wrote about come to pass. It is wonderful to see! I went back to painting full-time 2-3 years ago, and never looked back, although I did pen [an article about AI art](https://lorenhall-47992.medium.com/a-mind-to-create-ai-art-and-what-it-can-teach-us-about-ourselves-16243f27e731) during that time, and [a blog post about the painting style I developed in 1993](https://blog.yourdesignjuice.com/2021/11/an-artists-life-by-loren-hall/). Here is an example of one of my paintings, it's called "The Lovers". I am loving being here! [EDIT] Kbin is not letting me link an image, but the one I was going to link is the stickied post on my mastodon profile. Here's my mastodon ID: [@lorenhall](https://universeodon.com/@lorenhall) Here I am on Lemmy: [https://mander.xyz/u/Loren](https://mander.xyz/u/Loren) Thank you!
