Hey all, I’m opening 10 $10 commission slots to help Besan, a Palestinian who wants to finish art school (and also needs money for day to day needs like rent and food). I’d really appreciate any support!

Revenge for @/Sketch_Wolf on artfight of their character, Lyra Silvercross!! She is VERY protective of her truck and you just got caught talking trash about it: #artfight #artfight2026 #werewolf #werewolves #artwork #illustration #art #myart #artist #cryptid #creature #monster

digital illustration of a very foreshortened werewolf charging out from a nighttime woodland background into the rest of the blank, toned tan page. The werewolf is snarling, with a silver cross dangling from her neck and foreshortened towards the viewer. she also has piercings on her ears and fur mohawk down her back. Lyra’s right clawed hand reaches out past the frame of the background. She wears loose fitting clothes held by belts, with a thigh bag on her right leg. Behind her in a grass and dirt clearing is a beat-up rusty pick up truck. surrounded by pine trees. Above Lyra’s head is a full moon. In the bottom left corner is an oak leaf watermark reading: “LEAVES AND INKS”

Do not let this go quietly to the whims of some AI bubble blowing corpo. Make noise, write your civil servants, make it as difficult as possible to ignore how important it is that we keep institutions like this museum open. #noai Video from the link below: www.instagram.com/reel/Dc1SQ1O...

@discord.com and Google are dropping the ball to an incredible degree. Particularly developers at google should be WELL AWARE of the exploit the hacker is using against my friend, and not only are they saying their hands are tied, they're doing nothing to prevent this from happening to others (1/?)

There are so many reasons to not shop Amazon if you can help it, but it turns my stomach whenever I see authors advertising Amazon and Audible sales. Stop feeding the thing that’s eating us. Fuck Amazon. Get your books indie or from libraries.

Artfight Attack/Revenge (i was THIS close okay) for @/evonyaelyn of her character Vic! Alice is in there too but actually microscopic so it doesn’t count #artfight #ocs #oc #artfight2026 #artwork #illustration #myart #fantasy #fantasyart #pirate #pirateoc #drawing

Digital illustration of a woman with moth wings standing on the yard of a sailing ship, somewhat leaning against the mast. She faces away from the camera towards a lighthouse off into the distance. She holds a rope in one hand, posed as if she just landed on the top yard. She has dark brown hair pulled into a braid, loose fitting, light clothing, and a dark belt tied around her waist with a knife tucked in it. The background is not to the edges of the page; two strips of the paper sit on either side. However the ship’s mast and character go to the edges of the page. The background is of the ocean and a cliffside with a lighthouse, the sun setting behind it. A watermark shaped like an oak leaf reading “LEAVES AND INKS” is in the bottom right corner.

I predicted them in my spino painting from last year 😻

Cropped version of a painting, focusing on the heads of the two Spinosaurus and the sky.

Alt for original: In the morning, two male Spinosaurus emerge from the water into a burnt mangrove forest of Weichselia reticulata, small crabs crawl around their feet, while Anhanguerid pterosaurs investigate from the sky far away. The sun is a soft red against a greyish blue sky due to the smoke from a forest fire, smoke can still be seen arising from the distant landscape.

listifications is so fun because it shows you an account you blocked eons ago is somehow still adding you to random "i like A//I and this person doesn't" lists 6 months later which bluesky: if I have someone blocked already why should they be allowed to do that still??

🪽Artists, if you see this, post a bird 🎨No AI

Digital Illustration of a teal osprey with unnatural proportions over a similarly colored rectangle on an off-white background. It is in a dive position from the top left to bottom right, talons extended out, but instead of looking down in the direction its falling, its head turns to the left. Its feathers are longer than normal and have unnatural, stylized shapes. In the bottom left corner is a watermark reading: “LEAVES AND INKS”

Mesozoic March 1 | Tanystropheus I should've made the neck longer but I'm a amateur, this challenge is a learning experience for me :) #artwork #Mesozoic #MesozoicMarch #Triassic #Tanystropheus #reptiles #Prehistoric #Paleontology #Paleoart #Illustration #PrehistoricReptile

Digital Illustration of a tanystropheus floating over a purple to blue gradient rectangle on an off white background. Tanystropheus is a long-necked triassic reptile, with short, splayed legs and a disproportionately long neck. The drawing is stylized, putting bends in the longer extremities. Its head faces left, its body gathered beneath it to form a reverse C shape. In the bottom right corner is a watermark reading: “LEAVES AND INKS”

Daily bunny no.3235 will get there eventually

Two bunnies ride on the shell of an enormous snail, as it makes its way through a patch of mushrooms in the fall. The mushrooms and plants around them are also giant, so it's possible that the bunnies are just tiny and everything else is normal size

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

Almost three years ago, my editor called me early one November morning. A wildfire had sparked near a town called Paradise, he said. Could I go? (1/13)

Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.)

But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.
