Age verification? I learned to code in a TRS-80 Model III

Dang does that mean I’m an artist now?

QRT if you’re still drawing in 2026 and show proof~ Work is kicking my butt but I still managed to finish a piece! [ #art #dnd #ocsky #characterart ]

Show me your range as an artist! Okay, I am usually not very confident and coming up with positive things to say about my art comes at a big energy cost for me but I think RANGE is one of the stronger qualities of my art. I just can't decide and love too many things

Every single artist that posts on BlueSky should have this saved to their computer because so many of you are posting character torsos all day. (created by @/whey.party)

It took you hours, days, months to make. ✨ Why should your art only live for a few hours in a single post? Here is permission to repost your work.

Not every piece has to be a masterpiece Not every piece has to be a masterpiece Not every piece has to be a masterpiece Not every piece has to be a masterpiece

Human artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you 👠🚩🏮

I’ve heard people say “draw your feelings” a few times before. I wonder what’s better: To draw what I’m currently feeling, or to draw what I want to feel? 🤔

Something to work on for 2026: recognizing when I need a break, disconnect from the firehouse, and re-center/reset

I think a big fandom shift in interacting with stuff has gone from people commenting under the created thing whether it be fic or art to people linking it in private discord groups where the person who made it will never see any positive comments left on the thing they made.

my 2025 art summary! this year was the first time since i started learning how to draw that i've drawn at least *something* every single month. and most of it had to do with @sylessae.bsky.social's portrait bootcamp and mentorship. basically all of it, actually. #artsummary #artsummary2025

Today is the last day that you can repost this image

Here's my Art Summary 2025. It's been a year of learning, trials, error and insecurities. But also a year of making new friends, adventures and genuine happy moments. Here's hoping to grow stronger in 2026 💪 #artsummary2025 #artsummary #art

How to draw eyes

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

The For You feed is going to be down while I'm upgrading the CPU from AMD 7900 (12 core) to AMD 9950X3D (16 core). This should increase how many users it can serve by ~50%-100%. If all goes well it should be back up in an hour or two.

Most of us understand that drawing isn't a matter of inherent talent, but aquired skill. I also think a lot about how your success in learning to draw might have to do with how well you handle frustration, and how comfortable you are with making mistakes. The barrier i usually see--

heads up that bluesky doesnt show posts from other languages by default on your timeline, and its cutting you off from a lot of the community go to bsky.app/settings/lan... and deselect any language from this setting, or else you might not see any of the new japanese users at all!

At the end of 2024, I finally decided that one of my 2025 new year's resolutions was to complete enough artworks to post a summary at the end of this year—and here it is! Special shout out to @sylessae.bsky.social and her portraiture bootcamp! [ #art #artsummary #characterart #oc #ocsky #dnd ]

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Welcome back artists!🖌🎨✨️ Quote Post with an old piece that you still like!

A lot of artists are moving from ex-Twitter due to a newly implemented “feature” that allows everyone to edit uploading images/artwork using Grok. As such, it’s a good time to check out algorithmic feeds to discover and follow new artists! The one I’ve been using is bsky.app/profile/did:...

On Twitter, anyone can edit your posts without permission, and of course, people will use this to attack, accuse, and spread lies about artists or anyone else! Here's an example: This removed the clothes, draw the bikini and my watermarks are gone too!!

"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

Welcome back, artists! ✨ 😈 Quote Post with an old piece you still like!

Just a quick example of two similar drawings of mine, one from before i took @sylessae.bsky.social’s #SylBootcamp and the other one from during the bootcamp (Week 7). Definitely encourage you to sign up!
