Fan Art Friday: Jurassic Park by KovoWolf, journal
Fan Art Friday: Jurassic Park
Jurassic Park
is a science fiction franchise created by Michael Crichton and brought to life on screen by Steven Spielberg in 1993. At its core, it’s a thrilling exploration of humanity’s ambition, hubris, and the unintended consequences of tampering with nature. The story begins on Isla Nublar, a remote island where billionaire John Hammond has created a one-of-a-kind theme park featuring living, breathing dinosaurs, resurrected through advanced genetic engineering. While Hammond envisions a world of wonder and profit, the park’s tightly controlled ecosystem quickly unravels, leading to chaos when the dinosaurs break free. As paleontologists, scientists, and visitors struggle to survive, Jurassic Park delivers a perfect blend of cutting-edge science, moral dilemmas, and heart-pounding action, becoming a cultural phenomenon that continues to captivate audiences through sequels, books, and merchandise.
For me, Jurassic Park remains a timeless masterpiece. It seamlessly blended

Fan Art Friday : David Lynch by KizukiTamura, journal
Fan Art Friday : David Lynch
As part of our Fan Art Friday series, we pay tribute to a legendary figure in cinema and contemporary art : David Lynch.
More than just a filmmaker, Lynch is a multidisciplinary artist who has explored various mediums, including painting and music, crafting a universe that is immersive and utterly unique.
David Lynch began his career as a painter before turning to film. “It all started with a painting that began to move,” he often recalls. His visual artwork features disordered landscapes, evocative textures, and a penchant for the grotesque and nightmarish—hallmarks that also permeate his films.
In music, Lynch has collaborated with numerous artists and composed solo albums, using his passion for sound to create dreamy and unsettling atmospheres. His sonic explorations are a direct reflection of his visual compositions, an intertwining of dreams and mysteries.
His Works and Cultural Impact
David Lynch’s world is one where the ordinary slips into the extraordinary, a
