  Prompt: Style inspired by Mstislav Beksiński, reinterpreted in tempera on canvas with extreme materiality and a pronounced three-dimensional storm effect. Dry, layered brushstrokes; corroded surfaces; visible cracks; dense pigment clots; and heavy texture that gives the painting a sculptural presence. The entire scene is engulfed by a violent storm—spiraling wind, slanted rain, dirty snow, and airborne debris—rendered with deep perspective and kinetic motion that seems to push out of the canvas. The subject is a full-body figure: a female version of Santa Claus, horrifying yet magnetically sensual. Her stance is tall and commanding, slightly leaning forward as if advancing through the storm. Facial features are unsettlingly distorted: pallid, corpse-like skin; sharply defined cheekbones; deep, luminous eyes emerging from shadow with a hypnotic stare; an ambiguous, barely-there smile that feels threatening rather than benevolent. She wears a dark reinterpretation of Santa’s attire: a deep, oxidized red dress, torn and encrusted, clinging to the body in a way that suggests sensuality without explicit exposure. The fabric appears heavy and ancient, frayed at the edges, stained and weathered. The fur trim is dirty and irregular, almost organic in texture. A massive black belt with a corroded, misshapen buckle cinches the waist. Tall, worn boots rise along the legs, their surfaces cracked and scarred. Her skin is painted in cold, bruised tones, carved by harsh shadows and sickly highlights; the sensuality comes from physical presence and power rather than softness. Pale, lifeless hair whips into the storm, strands stiff and fragmented, dissolving into snow and wind. The palette is dark and earthy: rusted reds, deep browns, green-black shadows, leaden grays, and dirty whites for snow and light. Lighting is unnatural and dramatic, coming from multiple directions to heighten contrast and volume. The overall effect is a nightmarish, visionary tableau—an iconic myth transformed into a disturbing, sensual, and terrifying archetype suspended between dream, decay, and raw painted matter.

Smile, It’s Mandatory

Christmas arrives every year like a court summons wrapped in tinsel. You are required to appear, to perform joy, to demonstrate warmth on command. Smile. It’s mandatory. The calendar says so. The ads say so. The people who forgot you existed for the previous 364 days suddenly remember your name, usually while copy-pasting it into a group message.

This is the season of choreographed affection. Estranged relatives, emotionally absent friends, colleagues who wouldn’t cross the street for you in November now stage a brief theatrical revival of intimacy. They call it “the spirit of Christmas,” as if human decency were a limited-edition product released once a year and immediately discontinued on December 26th. For one day, indifference puts on a sweater and pretends it has always cared.

The hypocrisy is not subtle. It is wrapped in shiny paper and aggressively cheerful fonts. “Thinking of you,” says the card, written by someone who demonstrably was not thinking of you last week, last month, or last year. The message is less a sentiment than a ritual gesture, a social checkbox ticked to avoid guilt. Caring has become performative, a seasonal costume worn just long enough to be photographed.

Then comes the consumption, the real sacrament of this holiday. Christmas is no longer about connection; it is about transactions disguised as love. Affection is measured in receipts. The price tag becomes the emotional proxy: how much you spent replaces how well you know someone. The economy demands sacrifice, and the altar is your credit card. Buy more. Wrap more. Smile wider. Debt is temporary, but the illusion must be flawless.

Refusal is not permitted. If you opt out, you are labeled bitter, broken, ungrateful. You are told that you are “missing the magic,” when the real offense is seeing too clearly. Christmas does not tolerate honesty. It requires compliance. You must laugh at jokes that aren’t funny, eat meals heavy with unresolved tension, and pretend that proximity equals closeness. Smile. It’s mandatory.

What makes this spectacle especially cruel is not that people are flawed, but that they outsource empathy to a date on the calendar. As if kindness were exhausting, unsustainable, something that must be rationed annually. As if remembering someone, really remembering them, were too much effort to maintain year-round. One day of forced warmth is offered as compensation for a year of silence.

After the lights come down and the trash bags fill with torn wrapping paper, everyone quietly returns to their default settings. The messages stop. The concern evaporates. The smiles are stored away with the ornaments, to be retrieved next year for another round of compulsory cheer. The machine resets, satisfied.
