Oh dang, it's Inktober! And so many other drawing challenges... It's hard to pick what I want to do. 👀

DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025 I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves! Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship Silence is compliance!

Apparently a lot of ppl needs to hear this #bskycensorship

”Tekoälyä on liikaa kaikkialla, myös televisio-ohjelmien introissa, iltapäivälehtien uutiskuvina ja mainoksissa. Suomessa on paljon luovan alan osaajia, ja tekoälyn käyttö on iso keskisormi meille.”

Cozy vibes!! #art #illustration

“Just be yourself” can sound like cliché and bad advice, because honestly, it goes badly sometimes. It can hurt. Some people will reject you. But the reason it’s worth it is that when things do work out, it’s with people who really like the real you, and that feels so much better than pretending.

I look into the waters / And see a face I don’t understand / Wе’re both unwanted daughters / But thеre’s more than water in these autumn hands [ #veilguard #dragonage #dragonageart #emidraws ] (ref below)

Art motivation 💪

As a porn artist I'm not asking the SFW crowd to be into the freaky shit we're onto. Everyone has boundaries. But an effort to understand this world would be appreciated. Talk to sex workers. ask them about their experiences in the industry. Work WITH us to create a safer internet.

I dont "NETWORK", I do not "keep a consistent schedule", I don't try to make my art "stand out" on people's feeds. I POST MY ART. And if it flops, I DON'T CARE.

While I’m still working on commissions that are currently still in queue I have zero food or gas money at the moment. Some commission money to help support myself again would be nice 🙏

Nice noise we made! 👏 still not going to trust a manu this divorced from the art community that they thought to impliment it at all.

Seems like Deviantart is training their AI with your work, even if you opted out of your pictures being used for training. Well, I just deactivated my DeviantArt account for good. It shall not be missed 😬

AI grifter scammed their way into Dragon Con. The staff had them escorted out, lmao you love to see it

The last card for the Vampire's Tarot has been turned in. 78 illustrations completed this year for my fifth and final tarot deck. My wrist hurts ⚰️ Hopefully I'll soon have news from the publisher about release dates, so stay tuned

It's time to bring this up again

I wish authors could be subscribed in ComicFury.

'A NSFW ban won't negatively affect me, I don't draw or post porn!' You sure? Here's how it went down when tumblr did it:

Begone puritan

sure Shepard, keep telling yourself that... [ #memeredraw #meme | #artsky #art #ocsky #oc #digitalart | #masseffect #commandershepard ]

Artists feel pressured to make new art too quickly at the moment. Normalise artists fucking disappearing for months. Just walk off into the woods for a year and come back with a single sketch. It’s good for you

Binged Long Story Short and it made me cry. It was good. I can see this was made by Bojack Horseman's creator.

vintage porn is basically the hieroglyphics of modern gay culture. lots of history that would probably be lost if it hadn't been attached to smut (movies, magazines, photos you name it). part of why it irks me so much when ppl get prudish about pride, sex scenes, etc. it's like baby that's culture!

finished commission for @mono-mk.bsky.social 🥰 [ #art #masseffect #commissionsopen ]

i love you beginner artists. i love you even if you're trying to learn art in your 60s. sharing your art can be scary if you are new to art and learning, but don't ever let mean people stop you. your art is important and beautiful because it's yours. keep creating, now more than ever.

From a writer group post someone sent me: "...the attitude now is so exclusive and unwelcoming for those of us who are either pro-AI or use AI" GOOD JOB, EVERYONE, KEEP MAKING THEM FEEL UNWELCOMED, YOUR SHAME IS WORKING. 🥰

Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

It's still summer, right... RIGHT?! 😭 Swimwear is based on a cute bikini from Retro Stage. #masseffect #masseffectfanart #space #scifi #bioware #biowarebase #masseffectoc #asari #art #fanart #digitalart #drawing #artistsoninstagram #photoshop #bikini

An artist reached out to me about sending their comic portfolio. I don't have time for in-depth critique, but was willing to see what they were capable of. The work was okay, but there were also a lot of common mistakes, so let me signal boost some general advice-

the ai bubble is bursting soon thank god

do y'all remember when they found all that tf art in Osamu Tezuka's drawer post-mortem because I think about it often anyway keep chasing your bliss and draw weird shit, god knows we need that right now

coming into age in the 90s/00s when edgelord shock punk was the dominating trend I really thought the concept of censorship was settled as Bad Actually and Things Grossing You Out is in fact 100% a you problem but decades later it seems to be news to people

the thing about moral panics is they aren't about moral panics. it's about community control and rampant bigotry. censorship is a tool of fascists, those who purity police are fascists, and if your disgust agrees with their mission more than the right for fiction to gross you out, you are a fascist

People love it

If I had tried learning how to draw 'the proper way' I probably would have given up as well. You don't need to get good before you get to draw the stuff you love, you get good because you love the stuff you draw and you don't stop.

It’s so depressing and baffling watching the current culture’s attack on not just art but on like. Learning and thinking in general. I’m honestly so scared of what the world’s gonna look like in 5/10/20 years and especially for the kids living through it.

As someone who is 30 or 40 years old and has been on the internet for decades now, I need you to internalise this advice: we should all know less about each other. Stop telling strangers on the internet every single thing about you
