Why are so many viking media about manliness & what it means to be a man or about cycle of revenge? It's mostly power fantasy or subversion of it. Aren't there other themes that could be explored within the setting? I'd love to see a goat-herd detective noir, or chaos in ship stuck in middle of sea.

After neverending moving related tasks, finally able to get back to art again 😭 Truly felt like an eternity since last was able to sit down & draw.

Warm colors houses from my personal world building project Raizh! How much the place you live in can impact your creations? For me, moving to SoCal had a massive impact on my artworks! The light in SoCal is fantastic, the landscape is basically made of gold and copper pretty much every night.

Do not punish the behaviour you want to see.

Got laid off & am job hunting again. If able to get job with insurance, really want to try & get back into ADHD meds. They made a huge difference but were inconsistently available in area where used to live which was destabilizing. If they're reliably available here, would be great QOL improvement.

Recently moved to an area where there is feral invasive peacock population. They're honestly like oddly shaped cats in behavior. They also sound like if a cat were trying to emulate wolf howls & it's kind of funny.

Autistic and neurodivergent people deserve far better than a government looking to prevent their existence, let alone one that will invent fictitious ways to do so that puts everyone in danger

If I may share possibly one of my favorite comments from an adult gen z perspective.

Would you live here? 🤨

Fear only keeps you from creating what you love. It's a lie disguised as certainty; a promise that nothing will ever go wrong if you avoid it. But nothing is certain. And to stay "safe" means you miss out on the things that matter to you. Go after what matters to you.

4 years of art ~ 2021-2022-2023-2024 red and green has been a very enduring palette of mine lol

Ngl, the reason I wanted to finally read Ruslan and Ludmila by Alexander Pushkin was because I wanted to know what the heck was going on in these Gennady Novozhilov illustrations. It did not disappoint.

Tip: Google Slides is a super practical, free way to create portfolios, right in your browser! And you can instantly export them as a PDF.

Artists working in mainstream USA comics: Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, etc. all expect art to these dimensions. I'm seeing more and more disregard for the standard specs, and it affects everyone's deadlines to have production try and wrestle your art into proper proportions.

I went to sleep later than usual last night, yet somehow woke earlier than usual today, hype that it is the weekend

It is very difficult, when organizing people in this moment, to balance two true things in tension w/ each other: 1. The threat is bigger/longer than you are perceiving and you are underreacting on offense 2. The threat is less proximate/powerful than you fear and you are overreacting on defense

I know others have likely said this, but the point and the joy in art is that it is problem solving in action. It is watching your improvement piece by piece and creating a personal visual language Whenever people use AI instead it quite literally defeats that entire purpose of creating
