focusing on skill doesn't make your art better or make you like your art more. the most miserable self-loathing artists are often the most professionally skilled. what makes you like your art is whether you actually like it, it's that simple. and if you don't like it, make something you will.

Hey, so, survivor of CSAM (child sexual abuse material) here—and a global survivor advocate, including policy work! Fictional material is not illegal. That’s actually why deepfakes are such a big issue for survivors too. That said, actual art should *not* be made illegal. Why? (Con’t)

after Window been working on whether I can manage a multi-chapter comic project. Been really into dungeon crawls latelyyy

just have one hobby to yourself and keep offline. just one. get used to taking more time on something, going slower. enjoy new experiences, even if they suck. appreciate your failures as much as you learn from them. go the extra mile to see your neighbor comfortable for no thanks. you are not AI.

we love a mad scientist

old puella fanart sketch 🌺 cant believe the next movie is in sight

In CSP, if you're using vector lines & want to have less control points on a line, find the "Simplify vector line" tool & draw over said line with it. It'll make it so there's less points to work with. It'll alter the line shape, but even so, it's a lifesaver for adjusting or straightening lines.

I made a neocities website of my playthrough of 1000 year old vampire (currently at 11 pages!) (it's designed to be viewed on desktop only) If anyone else makes websites of their solo TTRPGs, let me know because I want to reeeeeeaaaadddd theemmmmm aalis.neocities.org

Never posted Charlie here...or if I have, may as well push her up the public consciousness of my media tab. She's the protagonist of my upcoming comic! And she's a total mess. #art | #ocs | #charlie

Overwhelmed? Scared to make a website? Feel the pressure to do it NOW but also do it RIGHT? Don't panic. I've made a super simple guide on domains, hosting, and even how to make a simple website landing page. marquisdeclaude.com/buildasite/

I've known Emma for many a decade, and she's an absolute superstar! If you're familiar with my OC: scarecrow, you'll know that she has done amazing work bringing that sack of straw life!! If you can possibly share this around, so those who are able to lend a hand can, that would be fantastic! 💕

At long last! I'm going to be opening up #commissions for the first time in a long time! I only have a limited number of slots available to begin, which I'll be keeping track of via my Ko-Fi. [ #AkiArts #digitalart #portraits #pets #emotes ]

I think @erintenelle.bsky.social went out of town back in 2015 when I was still talking to OCT friends on Tumblr, and I drew our characters along with our friend Red's bebos returning together ... I'm not sure who everyone is, but this AU made me happy! [ #AkiArts #sketches #digitalart #ocsky ]

🔪THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE X TWILIGHT 🥀 She was on the hunt for true love—but her true love hunted her down first. They're a match made in heaven as long as his religiously murderous family doesn't find out. #amquerying #writingcommunity #agentsguide

@dinahchoi.bsky.social I was browsing Reddit and had found this image and I had recognized your OC in a meme lol I guess you helped someone see the force

Pssst... if you toss me just $5 you get early access to my works, and some permanently exclusive stuff too 👀 Subscribestar: subscribestar.adult/saagelius Patreon: www.patreon.com/c/Saagelius (all my stuff is on both; Patreon's rules are more prudish which may affect my posting in the future)

whose wips are surviving on vibes alone 🙈? All The Devils Are Here is my urban fantasy thriller I will one day pull myself together for, starring witches, revenge and a self-loathing vampire

Yet another fake literary agency: New Life Creatives Media. Website is more convincing than most, but withers quickly under scrutiny: agent photos and book covers are stolen from Trident Media Group newlifecreativesmediaproduction.com
