New little bunny painting, but he's already got a home to head off to :) 3x4in, watercolor and gouache.

This little horse knight is still looking for a forever home!

It got previewed! "Ceaseless Conflict" for Secrets of Strixhaven Lorehold commander deck AD: Ovidio Cartagena This one was super interesting, I had fun looking at historical weapons and armors, and posing with a broomstick for reference. :D

POV: You can feel nothing but the cold. Bone-brittle chills that you can't escape. If you want to know more, you have to delve into....The Dark Side of Super. Find it anywhere books are sold, including audio book form, directly from me! adleraudios.com/matthew-siadak #Booksky #Booktok

Quiet Pandemonium - 11x14in, watercolor and gouache Based on a short story I wrote a few years ago of a raven who finds himself lost in the woods.

Don't mind me, just getting a little sun... #PoseRef #Pose

Got to thinking once about something Daneel said about his flesh being able to be cut and able to be “welded” together but how it doesn’t heal on its own. Boy probably looks a fright when his skin is damaged. #Art #MarchOfRobots #RobotArt #Robots #Asimov

Good news! OpenAI is canceling so many large purchase orders and datacenter expansions that the global price of RAM is dropping.

POV: You always push people away before they hurt you. Even if it means hurting them first. Until you ran into Farlie. Sure, she's your handler, but sometimes? She's so much more. She's scary, sure, and pushes you out of your comfort zone, but that's only helping you. #BookSky #BookTok

mods: here's our new AI feature bluesky: ...

Also! If you like this painting, I am taking a pre-order on prints (same size as the art, too!). If you see any other prints you'd like, I will ship them together once the prints are in :) You can find that info here: fallenlights.net #bsnm

POV: You and your sister take care of each other ever since you were children. Sure, you do all of the chores, and crappy jobs. But, your sister makes sure you are safe. She's the brains, and you, well, you're useful. And now you've broken the golden rule: don't get caught. #BookSky #BookTok

Found family...but the hard way. The Backwards Knight is a story about, at its core, taking care of those who need help. Whether because someone wishes them harm, or simply because they venture out into the world for the first time, and sometimes? Both. Find this and more in The Backwards Knight.

#SPFBOXI is still on-going, and 25 authors with 25 books for $25 have banded together to let you see what some of the entrants are! Includes The Backwards Knight and 24 other books. You do NOT want to miss out on this deal! itch.io/b/3592/spfbo... #booksky #SPFBO11 #IndieAuthors

Note: I am modifying the HireHumanArtists.com general title and note about "no AI" and changing it to "No Gen AI". Some folks out there are conflating generative AI with all kinds of things referred to as "AI" prior to LLMs - like the "intelligence" that runs baddies and NPCs in video games

Got a few more days for sticker votes, but one is in the clear lead! A new sticker will be made in April and mailed out in May! All patrons new and current who are there April/May will get one :) I've opened a drawing spot and watercolor spot! patreon.com/fallenlights

You took an oath to do no harm, and you live by that even when not at work. And yet, now you are faced with an impossible choice: help someone who causes harm, or do nothing at all. Choice might be easier were a gun not pressed against your head. #BookSky #BookTok adleraudios.com/matthew-siadak

I wanted to give a heads up that a spot at *The Branches tier* has opened up! This is a sketch in the mail once a month :) THIS month's theme is either a flower bunny or jackalope. I still have time to sketch one and mail it too. April is Alice in Wonderland patreon.com/fallenlights

Seen some shit recently regarding Ko-fi, not just this. They have an identity crisis and seem to be toeing the line on what will make them money and what will piss artists off So sick of this shit

Turns out Ko-fi is blatantly allowing bots with galleries full of GAI, specifically says not to report them unless there's specific illicit depictions (the same guidelines actual art has to follow basically.) Anyone care to put a word in with me? ko-fi.com/survey

Finally a flatware which minimizes surface area but also maximizes the scrubbing required

I have been posting old tiaras to TikTok and it has been fun looking through them again :)

We report: the west wind veered southwest through the night, and the moderate breeze turned into a strong breeze. Fog banks advanced towards land in the early morning, but dissipated before first lights. It is now the coldest it will get today; it feels exactly right.

"It's just a headache." Migraines are far worse than headaches. They impact vision, feel skull-splittingly painful and make it impossible to function properly. They are debilitating, chronic and can last an awfully long time, even days.
