An otherworldly scene: a winding, rocky path carved out of rock, surrounded on both sides by indeterminate foliage. This is a mostly dark indigo scene with greenish fog rising ahead of the path. Looming up from the fog is a huge rocky pillar with a glowing white light at the top. Fog hangs in the air. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A dingy room with a yellow wall. Dominating the room is a giant metal box, the size of an enormous refrigerator or furnace. It's the greenish blue color of corroded copper. On the front of it is a round portal, revealing the head of a flaming figure inside. The figure is a fiery orange with blazing yellow eyes. There are a few controls and lights on the front of the box. Numerous pipes, the same color as the box, lead out of the box and up to the ceiling. To the right of the box is a door with a red triangle on it. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Foolish: notes.art/2026/04/01... #notesArt

A person sits under a tree on a bright sunny day, working at a laptop. The person is sitting on a lush green hill. Above, the sunlight blazes through the leaves, producing a white-yellow glow. In the distance, a purple mountain range sits under a blue sky. This is an interpretation of Apple Computer's first logo, featuring Isaac Newton. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman" in rainbow lettering.

Oy 😬 yeah, they've got a whole animation sequence of various key Apple products, rendered in the Mac "Picasso" style. I just checked it in Safari and it does play on my machine, but I'm resolutely stuck on 15.7.2. If you're on the more recent thing they shipped, it might be a different story.

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that the Apple II is nowhere to be seen in Apple's animated product history on apple.com? The iPhone generation might not recognize it, but the II made Apple an actual consumer products company and carried it for at least the first ten years of its existence.

A deep canyon, with craggy reddish cliffs on both sides. The sunlight is coming from the left, turning the upper half of one of the cliffs a bright orange. The sky is heavily cloudy and an eerie yellowish-green. On the left cliff, so close to the edge it looks like it is about to fall off, sits a white three-story house, one side blazing in the late afternoon sunlight. On the darkened side of the house, one window is lit. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A dark gray cloudy evening, or maybe early morning. On a small rocky hill in front of an ocean stands a streetlight, looking completely out of place. It casts a dim, pinkish light onto the rocky ground around it. There are no other urban structures to be seen. The ocean is vast and a bioluminescent green. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A vast, yellow grassland under a mostly clear blue sky. In the distance is a purple mountain. Long stands of wispy white clouds reach across the sky. In the middle of the grassland is a crooked pole with a red stop sign fixed to it, even though there is no road other than a vague path leading to the sign. A black bird is perched on the pole, with a few other birds high in the sky. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A person sits in a glass bubble on top of a gunmetal-green tower. The tower is complex and futuristic, with various wires and details. The sky behind the tower is pink towards the horizon, fading to a dark blue. The bubble reflects both the pink light towards the horizon and a bluish light from above. There are a few glowing white lights in the sky that don't look like stars. The person is sitting at a desk in the bubble, working at a small retro Macintosh computer. They are illuminated by the white glow of the screen. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A figure wearing a suit and tie stands against a blue night sky. Where the figure's arm would be is a hole from which a tree branch is emerging. Where the figure's next would be is another tree branch, on which is sitting an owl with bright yellow eyes. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Or just an unorthodox—if theologically valid—means of finding a girlfriend

A rusty but still functional industrial facility: an arrangement of several tall smokestacks and pipes sticking out of a building. Orange smoke pours from the smokestacks, contrasting against the blue dusk sky. A door is open on the building, revealing a glowing orange interior. A figure stands in the doorway. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A wide green meadow under a blue sky. The meadow is dotted with small white and yellow flowers. There's a blurry gray treeline in the distance. In the foreground, hovering in the air, is a very precise hole in the sky, or maybe in existence itself: a portal that reveals a starry night sky beyond. Hanging down from the sky, attached to something unseen, is a small green exit sign: the green European kind, with a small running figure, and an arrow pointing to the hole. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A rough, impressionist painting of a person seeming to step out of a blazing yellow-green haze that make up the entire background of the painting. The person is rendered in garish shades of green, blue, red, and crimson. Its head is covered by a round sticker of a greenish-red smiley-face with X's for eyes. The person has a dark green-tinged halo above its head. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A dark, dingy book the size of a multi-story building stands in the middle of a drab gray meadow under a blue-green early evening sky. The book has a doorway without a door, and an upper-story window without glass, and looks like an abandoned building. A few faded graffiti tags are next to the door. Yellow tape is stretched across the doorway. In the window, a dim, ghostly figure can be seen. Two birds are in the sky. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A tall, craggy tower of rock with many layers looms up into the greenish light cast by a distant moon. Planted on top of the rock, where no bus could ever travel to, is a small round sign with a bus icon on it. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A surreal, industrial landscape: a lopsided stack of concrete shapes against a neon green sky. The shapes do not have the precision or symmetry of an industrial facility; they look thrown together haphazardly, with a chaotic collection of tall exhaust pipes bolted onto the back. The result is some sort of facility that looks like it was designed and assembled by a severely disoriented engineer. The concrete is grungy and cracked, with several graffiti tags visible. A small stairway leads down. The topmost box has a round hole and a rod sticking out of it, like a birdhouse. A bird can be seen flying off into the smoggy sky. A few hazy outlines of factories are visible in the distance. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A small, childlike person stands on a dark shore or small hillside on a dark, gray night. The ground is heavy with fog. The person holds a glowing lantern that casts a greenish light all around. Looming out of the fog, in front of the person on the shore, is a tall dark figure with a featureless white mask over its face. The mask has no holes. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A grassy, bluish-green landscape under a blazing yellow sky. Descending from the sky, attached to a large red balloon, is a blue figure wearing a futuristic space suit. The suit has yellow dots and buttons, and the figure is holding something that looks like a 1950s sci-fi raygun. A few birds circle in the sky in the distance. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A figure wearing a dark greenish suit and tie walks in an empty, light blue space. The figure has no hands and no head. Where the figure's head would be is a very large eye with a greenish iris. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".
