Hey #kidlitart folks, do any of you have scanner recommendations? I recently started adding more traditional illustrations and want to do more professional art with that, so I need a good scanner cos taking photos not always works well 😩

Obsessed with acrylic markers!!! With my ADHD it feels so nice to just “paint” without preparing all the paints, mixing colors, getting water and pallets etc lol

Finally painted a figurine of my cat Ciri!!!

Reminder: if you are worried about AI replacing you as an artist: don’t use AI voices, If you don’t want composing to be handed over to AI: don’t use it to write text. You get the idea. If you value your job: protect others jobs too.

Forgot to post second prompt of the #OurPlanetWeek 🌊

Happy #EarthDay !🌎✨ I thought it would be nice to draw something for Earth Day, but my original draft felt like it was missing something.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Also joining #OurPlanetWeek for the first time! First prompt: Touch the ground 🌱 #earthday #sloth #naturelover #ourplanetweek2025 @andreabrownlit.bsky.social @jemiscoe.bsky.social

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism. It’s disgusting and dangerous. If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign. Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness. To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

Autism is on a spectrum. Meaning different folks present different behaviors and needs. It is amazingly unique to each person. This aside so many are literally trying to scare a populace into being okay with doing away with all people with Autism because of many reasons that boil down to eugenics

Ready for the Our Planet Week 2025 prompts? Would love to see many of you joining ✨ #kidlit #kidlitart #ourplanetweek

These puffins were really fun to draw 🦞🦞 #kidlitart #puffins
