“I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland.” May we never forget Anas Al-Sharif’s last words.

WHEEEEE I GOT MY COMM OF MY WEIRDGUY FROM @yawningyawns.bsky.social EVERYONE CLAP its so gorgeous and u should all go look at their art...

trying to really focus in on this comic project...i'm really excited for the idea and just really gotta hyper focus on it

Think of all the artists who just post commissions. That's all they ever have time for. You don't know what they like or who their OCs are because they're always working. throw $$ at artists to draw their own shit, please. Like, genuinely, please.

When we say “make weird art” we mean don’t pull punches, be vulnerable, be brave. Make the art you’re terrified to show other people, make art without regard for what’s popular or acceptable. Make something messy and human and singular to you. Or don’t! It’s said for those who need to hear it

Find and kill

new oc project...not 100% sure about names yet but i've got some world building started :) #ocs #ocsky

Mirror posting to Bluesky!! (Sept. 2021) Here's some Flipnote Studio brushes I made for Clip Studio Paint! Retweets are highly appreciated!! #flipnote #clipstudiopaint #brushes

said it once and i'll say it again. we as a society do NOT need ai generated images or ai chatbots to engage with our faves. if you're down bad enough for a character they will start beaming dialogue directly into your head and you will be able to hear it in their voice

i need to remember to tag my work here more....i usually just post and get offline

note to self to try this tomorrow...

a bit more progress

32 accordian boards and then 4 heart boards IM TIREDDD AND HUNGRYY

finally finished punching all the holes and folding accordians...need to finish cutting board covers but i need food so bad

made envelopes for christmas cards :) i forgot to put slits in the two of the three envelopes before glueing though so I'll just wax seal those 🙈

spending 6 hours hole punching 130 folios (i still have 70 more to go)

the ink bleeding onto the parchment looks really cool

struggling so bad to work on market prep without my adhd meds but im trying BBFFN

Trails of stars ✨

cut like 80-100 pieces of paper today ...im so tired.....

Some details of a binding of Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by M.W. Shelley. Bound in fair calf with onlays of stingray, inlays of dyed calf, piercings of steel wire. Lines are blind tooled in red foil and edge to edge paper doublures were dyed with spirit dyes. #bookbinding #fineart #craft

Book II: Death & Grief #art #drawing #books #bookbinding #bookarts

Tiny book! There are a few things that didn't work out quite right at this scale, but I've learned what to do differently for next time. #bookbinding #fanbinding The fic is my own: archiveofourown.org/works/39351186

📍 • this account is sfw and mostly for posting my book binding work, may post ocs and such here! • nsfw account is @bonebatscity.bsky.social , fanart and ocs are there for sure :)

bad phone photos dont do my paste papers justice...✨✨✨

cut 5 text blocks for long stitches that are staples at my market table and now i call it a night... planning to just make 10 books, maybe 15 if i have time but i want to make more hard backs

my table collasping took a bunch of my work time away today unfortunately...at least i took it as an opportunity to clean up a little, but eh...

reposting from my other account, if anyone is interested, feel free to message me!

today's work...back hurt

literally just going in with scissors ✂️ one folio at a time #bookbinding

made paste paper today, IM TIRED

cooking paste for paste paper is always a struggle for me fsr... it's not quite thickening up enough but hopefully letting it cook a bit after adding an extra cup of water will make it right

deep cut crew🐠

Fun fact - I also enjoy mediaeval-style #bookbinding Blank book* in quarter sawn oak boards with alum-tawed pigskin quarter binding and clasps. Handmade paper from Velké Losiny paper mill in the Czech republic (*made for a friend - I don't do commercial work)

my book cloth came in so i finally sewed together my heart shaped prototype and put the covers on ...will definitely need to experiment with different mitre points on the clothing for paste downs but im happy with it so far! want to add a ribbon tie but that'll be for tomorrow

I had the privilege of talking with Abod a couple of months ago. He is so sweet, he really reminds me of my funny and kind gamer cousins. He cares so much for his family, but they are all enduring the unimaginable. We can make a difference for him and his family together. ❤️

Saw this account on twitter asking folks with a following to please boost them here! The migration has made it really difficult for fundraising efforts towards Gaza to maintain let alone gain momentum!

if you need a good resource for old art, the web gallery of art has a fantastic search function that lets you browse era (in 50-year chunks), nationality ("school", if you want say specifically french art), art form (painting, sculpture, etc.) and subject type www.wga.hu/index_search...

Creators, don’t post ANYTHING you create to Twitter anymore. It will just be stolen now and you have no way to stop it it seems

in classic jack fashion, i have not binded anything in a year or so but i dive straight back in with a difficult concept: heart shaped books. the book board cutting is going to be a nightmare

i want to go full pervert and be able to draw nsfw for a living, but i really miss drawing things that are actually okay to share with friends and family...😅

My piece for S1M* / Simulacra Magazine's second issue! Poem & sculpture made from sealing wax & tealight wax on canvas 🕯 #art #original #sculpture #writing #poem
