i love to see people and artists using their platforms to support and sharing other artists works as well! Personally i'm not interested to just follow "portfolio" bluesky accounts, i wish to see more artists sharing and uplifting each other

love that makes you bloom 💐 #art #ocsky #dndoc #ocart #w

Most people who hate pancakes also hate waffles.

We have a new trailer! Puzzle fans rejoice!

Wishing every freelance artist a very happy sell everything you make

there's a lot of people drawing art based on what they think are photos of the moon from the Artemis II mission, but please be aware the picture circulating is *NOT* and it's actually an enhanced picture by this photographer linked below! please don't spread misinfo and credit the OG artist!!

Hey for all the 'I never know when PortfolioDay is' folks 👇

I know people mean well but when you argue that some books/media have sex scenes and not "smut" and are therefore are ok, you are still doing the right wings regressive work for them. Everything they dont like is smut and its not a foregone conclusion that smut is bad. Stop talking like it is.

Alice in Wonderland art theme this month and I opened up a spot at the sketch tier (branches) and watercolor tier (stars)! patreon.com/fallenlights

Hello. I just found out that a death metal band has covered John Cage’s 4’33”, and now I need you lot to know that a death metal band has covered John Cage’s 4’33”. youtu.be/voqCQSDAcn8

Novels are just comics as made by people too lazy to draw the pictures.

Some great vaccine news Canada. Nuvaxovid is going to be available again!! (I have no conflicts of interest. Other than, you know, wanting every Canadian to be well protected against the vasculitic disease that COVID-19 is.) Also please wear a respirator mask. www.newswire.ca/news-release...

If you suggest a system and a setting to the group, the rule should be you are saying you are willing to run said system/setting as the GM. I come up with weird hashes/settings/stuff all the time, but the implicit thing there is its my idea, I'm running it. We don't need 'idea guys' in TTRPGs too.

Gentle reminder…

tell people you love them more. family, friends, coworkers, acquaintances, people you just met. normalize that shit, you should love almost everybody

If you're a writer who uses generative ai for your cover art or promos, you're a bum. "I wrote it all myself though." Nah, I can't trust that now. And I do not give a fuck anymore. How would you feel if an artist drew a cover, then generated a whole novel? Be better.

"Just one more thing" Working on some new pencil brushes for #ClipStudioPaint

Tired: letting Coco Chanel convince you to take off one accessory before leaving the house Wired: letting Tetsuya Nomura inspire you to add like six accessories, maybe some fingerless gloves

Important update

Playing gacha games feels like Sisyphus, but every time he pushes the rock to the top he gets a bit of money, which can be used to unlock new skins for the rock

Right. So you can be married with kids old enough at primary school at 25 (seriously grown-up markers on the cishet life scale), maybe driving a very heavy articulated lorry around the roads for a living. But suddenly when we talk about knowing one’s own gender we’re infantilising people? Okay.

Sebulba is my favourite Star Wars character because he's like if a Formula 1 guy had a weirdly vindictive grudge against a child, and that child grew up to be Space Hitler.

*sigh* If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it. If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it. If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you. I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.

For all of your pole wielding OCs. ❤️‍🔥 TrueRef: just the reference you were looking for.

got a much needed long laugh from this

Hey guys. Gabe is my editor for Tyree as well as a friend of mine. He's going through a lot as well and has some very very serious health issues ontop of trying to stay housed. I know things are rough and funds are limited but consider at least giving things a boost?

I highly recommend that everyone follow artists. If you do, your feed is filled with art every day. Real, original art. It's bonkers that you can even have this. Amazing. Undeniably cool. And then support those artists, when you can, because that helps the delight continue.

I don't think we talk enough about the effect of art on us. I can see one drawing I really really like and I'll be happy for the rest of the day I'm not exaggerating. Your art makes someone feel that way. Your art makes someone happy. Your art helps someone get through the day.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

after a quick review of my timeline i feel the need to point to the sign

there's still so much fecundity and enduring beauty in the nonhuman world. let's preserve and treasure it.

Please stop using substack. Please stop launching substacks. Please stop. They're not good. It's not good. They are only refining their techniques at locking down your subscriber base away from you and punishing you for ever leaving.

Nest Builder - digital painting wood pigeons are so unbelievably *round* ! I had to triple check every shape I drew against the reference because it just didn't make sense

The President of the USA declaring that "a whole civilisation will die tonight" is not something that arrives out of a vacuum. It is precipitated by the widespread international failure to hold USA, Israel, and their allies including the UK, accountable for their actions for many decades

I agree that world officials and politicians are not reacting with the appropriate level of alarm and response to today, but I dont know what Im expected to do apart from go "Oh shit" and then look around my living room

The whole "absurdly dramatic framing of a game of chess" thing in comics gets a lot funner when you understand that the real reason it's such a frequent device is that it makes it less obvious that the artist is picking their angles to avoid having to draw the actual board.

The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military. The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him. Words aren't enough - it's time for action.

you don't actually hate what you're creating. if it was made by someone else, you'd like it. you'd say it's cool. you'd say it's inspiring. you can easily imagine another artist drawing this, and someone else liking it. you only doubt it because it's yours. stop. it's okay. you're allowed to be.

I just tried to "up dog" my seven year old nephew. "hey, do you have up dog?" Him: "Yeah!" And runs off to his room. He comes back with a toy: the dog from "Up". "it's the Up Dog" Damn he got me

Poor baboo Alex, freshly injured, freezes up around demons for awhile. But Armin will protect her! It’s the least he can do after what he’s done… #aasb

Sick does not equal lazy no matter what the fucking government says.

Happy International Asexuality day!! 🖤💜🤍 Have a goofy little guy from a pride demon series I started awhile ago and forgot about!
