COYOTE Media launched a pet obituary column called the Rainbow Bay Bridge & it's exactly the kind of thing we needed to exist in the world. Local papers have obit sections, sure, but they cost a lot & they're (understandably) for humans. COYOTE said: let's fix that: petobits.coyotemedia.org

Artists! Quote with a femme fatale art 🔥

Happening online this month: A talk on the very topic of my recent book, and a class on extracting and using safflower red. Details on plantsandcolour.co.uk/abbasid-inks and plantsandcolour.co.uk/secret-red

One more behind the scenes look at my Character in Context piece! I used Super Matte Medium from Golden Acrylics to laminate an extremely fine tengucho paper to a clear acrylic for the smokey effect. I then cut a thin paper with the pattern and used the medium to adhere it to the back.

I swear I learn the most interesting things following @garius.bsky.social

The Free Speech Coalition is serious about starting an adult industry credit union. Part of this is being able to show regulators that enough people would use it, so please fill out this form if you're interested! (Yes, credit unions can issue credit cards!) www.freespeechcoalition.com/survey

Would love a boost for this post to get it to those interested in Arabic manuscripts please and thank you. #Skystorians #MedievalSky @soasuni.bsky.social @soaslibrary.bsky.social @soas-speccoll.bsky.social @soashistory.bsky.social @britishlibrary.bsky.social

Dad pun of the year so far, imo

In case you missed the Kickstarter, pre-orders are now open for this book, for dispatch starting in May (after I start fulfilling pledges). payhip.com/b/W306o

Well said

I'm both an author and a map designer, and I wrote a whole book about worldbuilding and map design. I'm excited to say that the ebook is going to be available for PRE-ORDER sooner than I was expecting! Still ironing out the details but look for news on that here + in the newsletter soon...

You folks are getting up to some shenanigans and we are HERE for it! Answering DMs and emails in order received! No delays anticipated, just excited to hear from some awesome folks with neat projects in the works. Keep 'em coming - we're stoked to make awesome stickers for you!

11 years ago we started a strange experiment. What if we shared one original artwork every day? 4,000+ pieces later, collectors are still discovering new work daily. Help us grow the circle: • Send a friend to everydayoriginal.com • Ask them to join the list Goal: 3,000 collectors

“It took a bit, but then the gasp of realization: They were looking at “Gugusse and the Automaton,” a long-lost film by the iconic French filmmaker George Méliès at his Star Film company. The 45-second film, made around 1897…”

Congratulations to my fabulous colleagues on the Small Performances project and the clever people at @camdiglib.bsky.social on launching the Baskerville Punches collection and associated RTI embedded viewer www.lib.cam.ac.uk/stories/bask...

A big ask for my #Letterpress friends! I would like to ask a few working printers (amateur or pro, different experience levels welcome) to share their thoughts about the current state of the craft with a particular emphasis on their feelings about deep impression / debossing as … 1/2

Wishing all who observe Ramadan a month filled with reflection, peace, personal growth, and meaningful community connections. Please join us on February 21 at 5:30 p.m. at Downtown Cary Park for a Ramadan community gathering at sunset. Ramadan Kareem!

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday. It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.

Currently slooowly browsing through a large gallery (2000+) of vintage photos of people posing with their cars. SO many neat people / cars.

Any artists on here with calendars available? I'm looking for the new year and I'd rather support independent artists than buy from Amazon or the big publishers. Hit me with recommendations or links! #art #BSNM #SupportArtists

when I was starting out, (pre-internet) I asked another artist a question about buying the chemicals to make a blue line (again, very long time ago) & they said they weren't going to tell me because I was competition & that's when I decided I'd never be a dick like that to another artist

Christmas is hard for many. The years roll, the ghosts at the table increase. We’re haunted by the absence of voices, of laughter engines who drank and ate with us. This can be day of remembrance rituals. For what it’s worth, Hooklanders near and far are in my candles today. Be gentle on yourselves.

I don't know who needs to see this but Century Library is an awesome resource of old timey style public domain images you can use as references or as assets in your own artwork thanks to super high res images - many of which are free and don't require a membership centurylibrary.com

I firmly believe we're going to survive this era -- broken, hobbled, with decades of rebuilding that will not be finished in my lifetime -- but we are going to survive and every asshole who collaborated in the effort to destroy this country will forever wear the stain of it.

Great photos here. Really interesting to zoom in and see the details of these little fuzzy faces. Like little snippets of escaped time.

We can’t afford a $1M trailer slot 😔 But reposts on Bluesky cost $0 - and they really help tiny teams like ours ❤️ If cozy medieval creativity is your thing, here’s our Scriptorium trailer!

A little map fun - the request was for a clean, easily readable map that focused on a specific area of a fantasy realm. Done completely in Illustrator for that extra-crisp appearance. #FantasyMaps #Maps #RPG

My daughter Naomi is a Data Specialist at the non-profit Family Reach which helps cancer patients. As a cancer survivor, I was fortunate to have a family who helped manage.

Thanks Andy! And Emily! And cor blimey, strikealight guvnors… please peruse me art and nonsense art sites to see if you’d like to buy anyone something for Christmas this year… Greetings at Dippyfishcards.etsy.com Art Artofnote.sumupstore.com Misc nonsense ko-fi.com/dippyfish/shop #bsnm

Thanks Andy! Mine is here, last international post (to EU and a few other places) on Monday! So get your orders IN! www.emilyhare.co.uk

Jeff Bezos will be fine if we ignore him for one day. This Black Friday, support a small creator. Artists: drop your shop links below, whether you’re running a sale or not, and please repost everyone else’s. No NSFW. No AI. Here’s mine: dragonsofwales.etsy.com

Today can be a rough one for a lot of people If, like me, you find yourself not fitting in with what society says you are "supposed to be" doing today? You don't have to force yourself to sit at a table with someone just cuz the two of you share DNA Chosen family can be a lot closer than blood 💯

I saw a lot of chatter about this & now I know why. The original post is such bullshit! If you don’t value art (or books, or porn) enough to want to support its creators, then the art is wasted on you.

ARTISTS! I need your help! In collab. w/the Society for Integrative & Comparative Biology, I'm organizing a group of artists to come to our Jan. meeting! We're looking for artists to create based on what they learn at the conference. $1000 stipend. Application is V short! forms.gle/ah1i8KwNJinZ...

Let's get me up to 1K followers today!

Some great tips here for authors who need to do their own cover art. Hint: you absolutely do not need AI and should never use it.
