Almost forgot about #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm resharing last month's! I'm a Canadian illustrator looking for representation! Open to PB, MG, and graphic novel projects! Email:[email protected]

I now fervently believe this. Relatedly, I think celebrating good news and embracing joy are equally radical. You have to remember what you’re fighting for. We cannot sustainably organize around sorrow.

I've gotten back into buying dvds and Blu-rays of movies I like. I get tired of bouncing around with streaming services, and also enjoy being able to lend things to friends. I also really prefer physical copies of video games over digital. This seems so slimy that they can revoke access to purchases

can’t believe a narcissist is being so publicly humiliated by a reflecting pool

one of the super kitties had a headache #makeaterriblecomicday2026

Here at the Reflecting Pool where a big chunk ofTrump's blue paint-apoxie has peeled off the bottom of the pool and is bobbling in the water.

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! Here's me as a kid! My mom talks about when I brought her what looked like a ball of lint and was mildly grossed out to discover there were indeed bones inside like I said there would be.

Artists, it looks like Adobe might be doing very questionable things at the moment by auto-enrolling you into a more expensive AI-heavy "pro" plan (potentially even charging you for opting out after the fact, which I should hope is illegal). Be vigilant 🧵 see further posts below

Graveyard Grim doing a little jig. I drew this silly gif after getting some good news.

Seeing starter packs bubbling back up into the Bluesky discourse. This is the most useful one I was ever able to put together. go.bsky.app/Hxoz9KX

Sessions are open for May 29! I have one slot available <3

ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR CHATGPT FRIENDS

I read this book a couple of months ago and it really was incredible. It dives into the history of the ocean starting with the creation of the universe itself, and had beautiful, engaging prose despite being a very informationally dense book. A sometimes emotionally heavy read, but very good. 📚💙

Birds are one of my my go-to drawings for fun. I just love them. This was ink and watercolour and just a dumb idea that had been rattling around in my head. #birds #watercolour #kidlitart

I almost forgot today was #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm resharing this previous one, I like it and have been busy with other things so haven't had a chance to make something new that fits. I'm seeking representation, and open to MG and PB projects! See more at artbymeagan.com

The one good thing about snow suddenly showing back up is I've had a ton of bird activity today from birds I don't typically see. I think this is a savannah sparrow, and he looks incredibly round from puffing up to stay warm ❤️ #birds

ATTENTION! New sessions available for April 24! #kidlit #kidlitart

If you're an artist you've likely encountered art scam emails where they offer a fake project. They're given away by the canned message with 0 specifics about your work. I haven't had one in a while but I got one today from someone calling themselves Aretha Franklin, which was honestly pretty funny

Trans Day of Visibility. Trans people are our neighbors. Trans people are not dangerous. Today, and every day, we see you. You are loved, you belong 💛

Social movement scholar here again. So, why protest? Nihilists were out yesterday arguing that "protests don't do anything." A short 🧵:

HOOOYAH

I painted this illustration based off my 2 year old a couple weeks ago. The snow is melting now but at the time he had a favourite snowball he kept by the door to hold when we went to and back from my 5 year old's school. It was very sweet #kidlitart

I find this completely believable. I’m on the top end of gen-Z but I find people in my age group and younger spot AI imagery instantly and it’s often taken as an indicator of corporate insincerity. Meanwhile a lot of older people I know can’t tell the difference and workplace management pushes it.

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I wanted to share a new piece but it's not quite finished so here's one I shared previously and like. I'm seeking representation and open to PB and MG projects. See more at artbymeagan.com or reach out to [email protected]

If you see this post your dragon art! #kidlitart #dragon

Being an artist means my phone has the most chaotic collection of screenshots and posed pictures of myself for references, and absolutely none of it is organized so I scroll through with a vague recollection of when I might have taken or added specific pictures.

The final Calvin and Hobbes, which appeared in papers 30 years ago today.

I only occasionally read romance, but this has maybe been one of my favourite reads. It's an incredibly sweet queer romance about a missed connection via text while the 2 women are in different times (5 months apart) and trying to prevent the one in the past from disappearing in the present. 💙📚

The other day we drove past a large cemetery in my city and my 5 year old asked me if it was the haunted forest 😂

Jesse Hamm had the take to end all takes on children's media. "People who disdain writing ‘just for children’ fail to realize that those children will remember what they read, maybe for the rest of their lives. You’re not writing for permanent children; you’re getting an early start on adults.”

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm a Canadian illustrator seeking representation, and open to picture book and middle grade projects! I work both traditionally and digitally, but I especially love working in gouache. Here's a cozy gouache painting of a "bookwyrm." #kidlit #kidlitart

"Technology revolutions 'promise to deliver progress but have a tendency instead to reverse it for people out of power, especially the most vulnerable.'" Quality board books and picture books always have been and always will be so important for children to have access to

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! Here's a black and white illustration I created recently! My name is Meagan Jackson, I'm an illustrator seeking representation. I'm open to picture book and middle grade projects!

I hadn't actually heard about this book until now but it sounds like it has such a great message, so I'll pick it up for my kids. I feel so bad for the authors, their visit was canceled when they were already there and ready to present

Happy #PortfolioDay I'm a Canadian artist seeking representation and open to picture book, and middle grade projects. I enjoy working in gouache, and also work digitally. #kidlitart #illustration

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard day! I had hoped to share a finished new piece I've been working on but I've been busy prepping to teach a painting class in my usual time slot I reserve for illustration work. I'm teaching it this weekend so it was crunch time. This is a bit older but works for October 😁

This makes me so happy! ❤️
