Rest well, Anthony Head - thank you for Giles, your voice, and your kindness.

Drawing leaves in a park!

I managed to finish these sapphic mermaids! They are a little late for #mermay, but at least it's in time for #pride 😌 🧜 Watercolor, gouache and pastels on Arches hot press watercolor paper.

Yep. The value of corporations rolling out the rainbow carpet isn't what's in their heart of hearts, it's the society-wide signaling of "acceptance is good, bigotry is bad." Even if entirely insincere, it tells society "we think the majority of our customers expect this," and that's good!

People like Kane and many many others that do care about human art and the creative process have been a beacon of hope while trying to navigate making art in this current climate.

people keep saying they want year round artfight and i’m here to hold your hands and tell you the greatest power you have as an artist is slam dunking random gift art into someone’s dms and watching them freak out

Terrifying. And who will be subpoenaed when this goes wrong and someone dies from a medical error made by AI? These executives are going to find themselves on the pointed end of some mega lawsuits in the future.

It needs to be stated over and over - this isn't just a matter of errors: The point is that LLM AI is literally incapable of reviewing or validating research data. It absolutely cannot do that job, at all, ever. But it is very good at generating something that looks like a convincing review.

thank you for this thread! i had an off-the-cuff comic turned into a meme and it's such a weird feeling that my art is just being spread out there without any credit here's a version with my name on it, im fine with people using that one :)

Felt like revisiting MSPaint and had a bunch of fun painting this on stream today! #art #MSPaint #digitalpainting

Old lady advice: Surround yourself with people who are positive toward others, supportive, and offer honest, constructive advice. Avoid those who constantly bad-mouth people in front of you. If they are speaking that way about them, they're speaking the same way about you when you're not around.

We're up to four prompts, so I made an #OliveArtClub public album and will continue to save all future prompts there. This isn't a challenge, you can skip or skip around as you like. Enjoy! flic.kr/s/aHBqjCVCeG

Graphite Zeus.

SCOOP: An internal Microsoft strategy document says that the plan for its just-announced “Scout” personal assistant AI is to “make people addicted” to the tool before rolling out additional functionality, 404 Media has learned.

This week’s #OliveArtClub prompt is a classic: please make a picture of this apple. Total beginners welcome (everyone is really supportive!), digital or traditional mediums okay, no AI. I took the picture, all humans are free to share or sell their images based on it. Enjoy!

Hey look it’s your boyfriend

Sick of the relentless adult content I see on Bluesky: back pain, interest rates, tax brackets, that noise you make when you stand-up sometimes.

Listen I don't want to see NSFW content on my feed and also I want people to be able to post, discuss, celebrate, and support NSFW content without their whole account being shadowbanned by puritanical tech bros trying to kick us back a century or two. These two positions are entirely compatible.

Bsky is apparently gonna start flagging whole accounts as nsfw soon so if you don't already know about your moderation settings, highly suggest switching nsfw from Hide to Warn; otherwise many creators will completely vanish from your timeline when they roll this out.

I don't need to be "protected" from seeing porn, I need porn artists to be protected from being debanked, having their work stolen by AI, being abused for the content of their work, and going broke.

dear god just saw how an it looks when someone's hit with the account wide adult content warning and it's fucking MISERABLE blurred icon, blurred banner, every single post is hidden, even text posts, and posts that have images require you to hit unhide TWICE for the text and image, fucking nightmare

*re-upload: I noticed mild changes I wanted to make. So let’s rewind: had a lot of fun drawing this pose,also trying to create a creepy mermaid (which I haven’t done before). Love this. I def wanna make it in color too later #TrueRefDT013 #mermay #artistsonbluesky #darkartist #digitalillustration

I can't be the only one who lost their shit when I saw this tiny detail in Witch Hat Atelier. Coco had artists calluses!!! These marks are something artists acquire after creating art for a significant amount of time. Typically on the finger you rest your pen/brush/pencil.
