Finished up this fun little painting last night! First "real" attempt at using gouache. I'm pretty pleased with how it came out, and excited to continue learning this media! Koi Pond Blossoms Gouache painting on 9.4" x 4.3" watercolor paper #art #artsky #gouache #painting

A small, skinny tall painting depicting red and white koi swimming around lily pads with small peach colored water lilies in a dark blue background. The koi and lily pads break the border of the blue rectangle to overlap the edges of the white border.

The painting is flanked by a pair of yellow and red flowers and a light green tea pot, all seated on a black desk.

happy *quiet, chill* pride

The chill otter is laying down next to a phone with rainbow beams fanning out of it. They look at the phone and see it says June 1st, and after a brief contemplation, they snuggle up under a progress pride blanket, phone plugged in farther away. It reads “It’s ok if you are tired. Happy *quiet, chill* Pride.”

To kick off the month: I'm Bi/Demi. Trans rights are human rights. There is no LGB without the T. Pride was a fucking riot. Corporations aren't your friend. The spectrum has always existed. No cops at the parade. Our stories will outlive any hate. 🏳️‍🌈

You can become disabled in an instant. People think those of us who are sick did “something” to deserve it. We didn’t. The just world fallacy is a lie. It just takes one illness, accident or stroke of bad luck to forever change your life. Disability is not a moral failing.

its unfortunate that artists get talked out of their rare perspectives so often. ‘its just not done that way’ someone says and artist goes ‘oh okay guess ill sand that part off.’ bud that is your SPARK. so much of my success is from holding firm on the things i do that were called ridiculous

It was this for me. By the time I left Twitter I'd begun to tense up just visiting it, and I was burned out by being condescending to the folks trying to be nasty to me. When I came here, I fully signed onto the "don't engage, just block" ethos and tried to model a better online version of myself.
