There are officially over 400 artists on HireHumanArtists.com🎉 More human artists than you would ever conceivably want to even try to look at all at once! Hire one for your next human project, wouldja?

Be aware that you *always* leave a debate about AI as a winner, if you make things yourself rather than just put your name on stuff from a machine. I'm not even talking about making a living with art. I'm saying that in the end, you are always a sunrise talking to a bunch of LED lights.

I finished up the next tarot card in the deck yesterday. That's 5 cards down! Just...a bunch more to go! 😅 I have a couple of other older pieces that I can also turn into cards in the set. I might just have to update those to match the rest.

this is a masterpiece

It's finally here! Just in time for #mermay Our new Classic Mermaid set with the fabulous @intersectionscch.blacksky.app 🧜‍♀️🤍 TrueRef: Just the reference you were looking for

Absolutely wild to learn how this stuff is so massive, so expensive, and the foundations are built with cotton candy and prayers. youtu.be/TCeXwFWmv1U?...

Hey hey. I have a membership website, kinda like Patreon, except I control all of the variables. I even have a free tier where you get MOST of what the paid tiers get. Check it out if you want to follow along with my art, fun tattoos, and my frustrating health journey!

Good morning, Heathens. I put together a little care package of feel-good things - have a lovely Tuesday 🦷🚬✨🕯️🦇

Going live in about 10 mins. Hop on, chat, we'll draw stuff and work on a tarot card. I'm actually going to WORK on a tarot card today. Not back-track and start from scratch. Promise. I think. youtube.com/live/ap0wqhR...

What a "weekend." Getting ready to go back to work tomorrow after a long weekend of homesteading projects with the wife. I have a tan now. 😂

For anyone interested, I just started a petition to get anything created using generative AI disqualified from Eisner Award consideration moving forward. Please consider signing and sharing. www.change.org/no-ai-at-the...

Mermay 12 x) I'm a little behind haha, but that's alright! Here is an angler inspired mermaid. I was aiming for like a dark/cloudy day with the lighting. Also I'm running a spring sale on my shop. Use code Nama10 on my etsy for a 10% discount, running till June 1st.

Alien: And how did you run out of water? Earthling: Machines drank it. Alien: Machines. Earthling: We had to feed machines the water. Aliens: So the machines were holding your planet hostage for water. Earthling: No, we made the thirsty machines. They worked for us. Alien: End communication.

Nobody here needs me to tell them not to do this but Jesus Christ in a Cadillac do not do this.

Going live at 9A EDT. Hop on, chat, let's do some gestures and hopefully work on this tarot card a little bit. :) youtube.com/live/4HFELpv...

This is my new response for tattoo pricing pushback. Thank you.

It's my Birthday!! Thank you so much for following along this past year on my art journey. Exploring themes of harpies and the like has been such a blast. I can't wait to see what this next year brings! Please consider sharing my art on this day. <3 Thank you so much!

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this AMAZING set of HAND NOTES by the talented @miyuliart! I love that these focus on some of those SUPER-HARD angles to get right :) #gamedev #animationdev #gameart #comicart #characterdesign #howtodraw #comics #hands #illustration #manga

🚨 The keys to being a successful artist in 2026: - produce as many pieces as possible - make short form videos of you doing that ⚠️ What I'm doing: - spend forever on one piece - whining about pressure to make short form video

Happy Mother's Day to all of the mama bears out there. For THIS Mother's Day, I'm going to be working on a duck pond deck and various goat projects. Goat projects. Yeah. My wife is a Tractor Supply Mom, not a Target Mom.

Still one of my favorite movies. Because of all the cheese.

Chronic health issues suck. Would you like to follow along with one? I just published a seed article: Living in the Fog joshj.blog/fog/

Look, the Republican Party is pushing white supremacist policies to destroy our ability to change the system through democratic electoral politics. So it's time to stop giving their billionaire benefactors our money. Cancel ONE THING from a billionaire today. You can do it! #CancelParty

Just a reminder that Blambot's Indie License allows small press comic creators to use Blambot's indie fonts (those marked with a $0 option) for free even if you make money with your comic or merch directly related to your comic. More info: blambot.com/pages/licenses

Color theory tip — if you want colors to appear brighter, put them next to black. If you want black to appear darker, put it next to a bright color. Or, to put it in a more fun way, contrast makes things go "Blaow!"

Do you ever get frustrated with your art? Heres my take: That's not only normal, it’s an essential part of the creative process. I believe that you can develop a positive relationship with it, and use it as a guide to solve problems in your art - leading to better art and a more enjoyable process!

Tattoo aftercare tip — if I don't have hustle butter to give away, I usually recommend something super cheap that's great at moisturizing AND is a natural antimicrobial. It's just organic cold-pressed coconut oil. Straight from the cooking aisle. And less is more. A little goes a very long way.

Mermaid for #mermay This one from pandemic times.

Hymn to Octopuses 🐙Octopi?? Some aquatic-themed characters and studies I made. Perhaps prepping for a mermay drawing 👀

Our feature artist/reference for today is this WONDERFUL page on how to draw WINGS by the talented @jenndeut! I love a model sheet like this, which actually explains WHAT the different wing types DO, not just HOW they LOOK! So useful! #gamedev #animationdev #conceptart #manga

I see no lies here

Hey everyone! I'm live right now. :) Running a tad behind, but that's alright. I wanna chat and draw stuff. 😅 youtube.com/live/IQWeK9J...

Savage.

Ahhhh nostalgia. This was awesome on the timeline.

Anytype got ANOTHER update. Of note for ME: a few aesthetic changes and some bug fixes for some pretty irritating behaviors re: nested tabs. I love seeing development that improves UX instead of destroying it. Not like that's a trend on any social media platforms or anything...

Busted my finger building another raised garden bed. Le sigh.

Remember, folks: Bsky isn't Twitter, there is no algorithm. Posts don't get seen if they aren't reshared!

Back in the studio for a second take! Sometimes, being a good artist isn't enough – you need to be a good teacher too. 🎨 I'm creating a drawing course and realized I needed to really focus on clearly articulating the "how" and "why" behind each stroke. Stay updated on the course: [chrisbeaven.com]
