"I wrote the piece and Claude found the links relevant to my claims" is, even without the AI, such an admission of poor thinking and argumentation. your claims should emerge from the evidence!

If you see this, QRP with your green art! The greenest from my recent Ang Lee series.

Movie poster for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. In the corner a hand in a robe draws back the "Green Destiny" sword, which bends from its hilt to tip. In the background, wind bends a forest of bamboo in the opposite direction.

another Judas painting i really love and that's always been a "i need to keep this composition in mind" type of influence in the back of my head Judas Iscariot, by Edward Okun, 1901

Yesterday while biking I hit a rough patch and the bag containing my sketchbook, wrist brace, and headphones seems to have popped up and out of my rear basket without me noticing. So I guess if you find it let me know.

To anyone who does not live in Paris but visits the city at regular intervals (as I do), the transformation has been staggering: Paris has been reclaimed from cars. It can be done, and could be done in London too. It is all about political will and taking the risk of being unpopular - for a while.

Sometimes I will keep track of edits needed on a book in an email draft. Sometimes I start a list and it ends up being one item long. I am happy to have finally deleted the draft I have been sitting on that read, simply, "skink."

This is really what drives me crazy when I see this out in the world. If youre prompting or hiring someone to prompt you are probably sinking similar “labor“ expense as hiring an artist, as well as opening up a hole in your business that hemorrhages exorbitant subscription expenses in 5 years.

New client requires Adobe files so I had to dip back in to a few months of an InDesign subscription. Immediately greeted by this, a true marvel of modern software engineering.

Adobe Creative Cloud load screen, proudly not loading, assuaging the worried consumer's troubled mind with promises that usually it does not take this long. The consumer can, they proffer, restart their computer--because maybe actually this isn't even Adobe's fault. Maybe it's ours.

Mine looks pretty similar! Adjusting your pressure curve to reach 100% sooner will enable you to stop death gripping your stylus as much, which is a win for long term drawing health.

Hey #kidlitartartpostcard I am Max Temescu and I draw mostly about the natural world, climate justice, history and agriculture. And animals obviously. I write and draw, but love illustrating for other writers too!

If we get through this current moment, part of whatever comes next is regulating these vehicles out of existence, no matter how long it takes. No society should tolerate such a deadly consumer product that serves no purpose other than making people feel tough and strong. (I know, I know. Guns, too.)

Feeling really confident about the diagnosis I just got for my neck pain. After I told him I am an illustrator, only half of the appointment was spent discussing his ai medical animation startup. I waited ~2 months to meet with an in-network specialist so I assume this is the pinnacle of treatment.

And! Your awareness of the road environment is way higher on a bike! Visibility is better, sound is better. It just does not make sense to enforce stop signs for cyclists *and* never enforce them for drivers.
