Do I have any mutuals (and/or followers) that live in Croatia? I need some answers and insight about something (I am considering moving there and I'm wondering about jobs/housing). Please DM me if so.

Happy Holidays, friends! Sending you lots of warm hugs and hot cocoa ♥

I know you're probably absolutely swamped with all the sales and promos right now, but if you'd like some new art for your walls (while supporting yours truly), feel free to check out my INPRNT gallery! #art #prints www.inprnt.com/gallery/vale... PS: I've added some VANTAGE art, too!

Every RPG game ever that's existed for decades looking at this like:

I've been seeing this color wheel art share on my feed recently... so I wanted to share this collage of all 31 days of my May-Sketch-A-Day speedpaintings from 2022 #art (I definitely need to get back into creating more of these; but life's been rough in the last few years...)

I've also written up a small behind-the-scenes blog post detailing my journey! I will probably be adding more to this post in the coming weeks, but for the time being, you can read it all here: www.valentinafilic.com/vantage.html

Looks like I haven't shared this here, but a tabletop/board game that I worked on for over 7 years has finally been released! I'm so excited to share this news with you (and some of the art that I've created too!) Check out VANTAGE, from Stonemaier Games stonemaiergames.com/games/vantage/

Bluesky doesn't penalize you for using links, tags, using key words like Patreon or commissions, and doesn't have a central algorithm on your following feed, which means all the power rests on you to help your favourite creators be seen!

"I can't brainstorm without ai" "I can't draw without ai" "I can't write without ai" "Ai summarized it for me cause it's too hard of a read" So what exactly /can/ you do? Because you sound fucking useless to me

burned out.

One day I will live in my own place, away from toxic family members and their narcissistic/gaslighting behavior, surrounded by good books and art and music, and finally at peace to be my authentic self. Life has been rough as of late, so I'm just putting this out there into the Universe. 🙏🌙

I see so many new followers here! Hello and welcome ♥ Thank you for being here, your support means the world to me! I apologise for the lack of art, and for all the radio-silence on my end; burnout hit me extremely hard lately, on top of some health issues I'm currently overcoming.

Just finished my first-ever playthrough of Journey (the game). I'm just gonna go and cry myself to sleep now.

Saw this and thought my oomfs' feeds could use this

ChatGPT consumes so much water and energy each week that it could power entire countries for YEARS and folk act like you told them to kill their selves cause you want them to write their own emails and not to steal art. 😂

Normalize this reaction #art #artists

And if you don’t know, now you know! 🚫GenAI on Bluesky 🦋☁️

Over at the other place all I see is "this game sucks" "the industry is cooked" "Woke! DEI!" *complaints about game fidelity* Here meanwhile: "I love this game" "Check out my gaming collection" "Here's a list of games I love" *Overwhelming positive discussion* The contrast is staggering.

Genuinely excited to see the massive shift to Bluesky. Feels like a real seismic moment. I know it's JUST social media but old Twitter was so instrumental for indiedevs to connect with other devs, share techniques, reach potential players and get publishing deals. Let's get that back.

I made a #MagictheGathering artist starter pack! Let me know if I missed anyone! go.bsky.app/8ZHL6xq

I do a little dancy-dance in my chair each time I see my favorite artists and mutuals on here that I had on the other scary-place ♥ So happy to see so much art and positivity!

Hi friends, I could use a tiny bit of help: So, I have some drawings that I think could be prints/stickers and whatnot, but they're drawn in small sketchbooks with the page crease in the middle of some of the artwork. How do I go about removing the crease? Photoshop? Keep it?
