Legendary Final Fantasy Composer Nobuo Uematsu says he’s never used generative AI, and never will. "I think it still feels more rewarding to go through the hardships of creating something myself." automaton-media.com/en/news/fina...

Hate to be "that guy" but your heart is showing and everyone can see your radiant love

This. I cannot emphasize enough how influencer and hustle culture have completely changed the internet from "weird and wonderful things people make for the heck of it" to algorithm chasing joylessness.

Thinks about subtle intimacy. Thinks about small touches exchanged between partners. Thinks about the hand resting on a knee or a thigh during a casual chat about anything. A thumb brushing over the skin.

To my friends in the USA: Fight back against the KOSA bill now, not later. Your country is built on freedom?m Good. Then defend your freedom! Your speech and media should NEVER be censored! No matter who agrees or disagrees with you! Be American! Be FREE! 🦅

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

Now that Twitter has finally gone completely up in flames, and the people holding out on there that I was sticking around for aren't anymore, I should really be more active over here. Pic unrelated but it's good advice all the same.

"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."

Speedpainting from today, continuing my explorations in more complex color

Very spicy personal art of my vampire Aemelia and her husband/sire, Niklaus. Trying to get more comfortable with drawing nsfw art

I received news today from my partner that our lovely little Bunny is going to need eye surgery. We need help raising funds, though. Any share, repost, donation is all appreciated. gofund.me/5dc94f67

Squeezing in a short MWO stream before joining @brachyzoid.bsky.social's friendlocke stream today! www.twitch.tv/tiki_the_troll

Another current personal wip that I need to work on further

Haven't shared this yet, a design sheet for my thursday dnd character, Nadine. (This is an au of canon angel nadine in my story. I wanted to play with what she would be like as a green archfey with a huge confidence boost. At this point its a seperate character lmao) The portrait is by talexior 💜

Just a reminder I do take commissions! Here are some infographics on what's going on currently! I do have a halloween sale going until the end of the month! Please see my order form for submitting a request. And my kofi as well 💜 ko-fi.com/auriel theladyauri.carrd.co

Doing more Baldur's Gate tactician mode with @royalcogark.bsky.social @sirmalervik.bsky.social and @baronvonvraptor.bsky.social www.twitch.tv/bloodmage96

On to day 3 of posting art! Anya and Yor Forger from SpyxFamily. These were done earlier this year. This is such a cute series, I highly recommend it.

Day 2 of art posting! Some Inu Yasha characters I did in 2022. I'm still debating on adding Sesshomaru as an option since he's my favorite.

Last post before bed, I found an old art of my girl Lorelei again. Still quite like this one, though I'll definitely be repainting it at some point when I've got time.

Sketch page for my future Shadow of the Demonlord character, Lucernas. I'm currently playing him in BG3 right now til our current campaign in sotdl is done. Tried a different style for the sketch page, and I'm kinda digging it so I may do more with this.

I do 2-hour speedpainting commissions on twitch.tv/thatartjack , where the whole painting is done live, start to finish, in two hours as the client watches and commentates. Over 1k done over 7 years (and if you'd want one, they're $60 USD, contact form at jackkaiser.info !)

Trying to be more conscious of posting stuff on socials so here's Asuka and Rei from Evangelion I did last year. These were also turned into acrylic charms, which will be available sometime soon on my Etsy store once I reopen it.

Hi hi #portfolioday. I'm Auri, a freelance artist who loves to do fantasy art and am also branching out to other genres. Currently looking for work, both private and commercial! I do a lot of private ttrpg character commissions and have been recently doing contract work for Shadow of the Demonlord

Because i"m on a new site, i'd like to reiterate: I write a good web novel. You can read it here: www.royalroad.com/fiction/5182...

Starting off the new account like I start off a lot of days: some fun studies I've done recently. These ones were (failed, but fun) attempts at minimal brush strokes and really trying to lean into the textures.
