Huh. A surprising amount of artists seems to have missed the memo that Inktober is bad and we do other -tobers?

The summer heat here has finally broken so I am in full HOT DRINK MODE. ☕🍵 Gift art for @scragglebird.bsky.social! #furry #art 🦢

A digital painting of a creature known as 'Scragglebird', described by their owner as 'a combination of vulture, pterosaur and few other things'. They sit on the branch of bare tree in morning light, upon a background of evergreen trees and snowy mountains. Their body is covered in brown fur, feathers, and scales. They look up into the sunlight, making a toasting gesture with a to-go cup full of a hot beverage in their hand.

Glazed these today! Can't wait to see what they'll look like after firing ✨ #pottery

Three small vessels. The colours all look pastel. Left to right: a mug with the rim slightly moving inward, painted red, orange, and yellow from the bottom up and blue inside, with white decoration on the handle. A cylinder or cup in green with white cloud-like swirls and stars and light green on the inside, a bulbous vessel messily painted in the pride rainbow horizontally, with a smattering of white stars and dots, and pink on the inside.

Same as before, rotated to show off different sides. The white shapes on the green cup look slightly different, more like caltrops.

My adventure today was a beautiful ferry ride on the #Koman Reservoir in #Albania. The steep cliff walls and turquoise water totally remind me of the Norwegian fjords! An unforgettable experience. 🇦🇱✨🥰 #MountainMonday #BlueSkyMonday #Scape #Photography #travel #Roadtrip #Vanlife #ECK #AlbanianAlps

A small blue and white ferry boat cruises along the turquoise waters of the Koman Reservoir in Albania. The ferry travels centrally through a narrow, fjord-like canyon. In the foreground, steep mountain slopes covered in lush green trees and vegetation rise up on both sides. In the background, towering, rugged gray limestone cliffs dominate the skyline under bright daylight, highlighting the dramatic and pristine natural landscape.

Sketchy digital painting/drawing of a low, rustic house painted green with three staggered, overhanging red brick roofs and tiled "porch" and a bridge and arches underneath that are obscured by the field of view, in the evening sunlight.

I resent a lot of things about AI in creative spaces. But the thing that I hate the most is that a year or two ago, if I saw something cool on the internet, I DIDN'T HAVE TO QUESTION whether or not human effort created it. I could appreciate what an achievement it was that a person could do that.

Moar purely black n white value studies! The fisher and the cowboy were done on the train, and boy was I actually done after the cowboy.

A fisher with a wide conical straw hat is burning a piece of wood sitting on the edge of their barque, producing a cloud of smoke. Their silhouette is reflected in the water.

Picture of two handmade felt bat keychains photographed on a black and wooden background framed with decorative plants and matching felt and threads. The bats have an ivory-coloured body with pale yellow wings, and orange noses and ears. Little coral-coloured blushes decorate their cheeks, and two little black eyes are embroidered on their faces. The bat at the bottom has its wings closed thanks to two little magnets hidden in the tips of the wings.

So happy that I was rolling this piece of pale pink polymer clay in my hands, completely lost as to what to make, and seconds later decided on an axolotl. From "no ideas" to "make thing".

A stylised axolotl made from mostly pale pink clay, with pink and bright orange details and dark, creepy eyes. Next to it a very sticky looking rudimentary blue elephant.
