What a misguided and terrible ruling from the EU. They just handed people’s rights, privacy and copyrighted works away for free to a US behemoth. This also affects any company whose work is copyright dependent. I thought the EU was better than this. Shame on them. finance.yahoo.com/news/meta-wi...

A digital illustration of Miss Piggy and Kermit from the Muppets based on the painting “The Kiss” by Gustav Klimt. The overall painting is various golds and yellows with graphic black rectangles and squares and swirling dark yellow circles nested within each other. There are also lots of little purple, blue, and red flowers covering Kermit’s body.

congrats on the 11k! I'm Tom, a freelance artist from the UK! I usually work in oils or ink with the occasional digital piece too.
A large chubby axolotl dragon lays on top of an island in a large lake. The island has several buildings on it.
It is golden hour in the morning and there are large mountains in the background. 
The mountains, dragon and island and reflected in the lake like a mirror.
A villager sits in a small rowing boat clutching his head in dismay as the friendly dragon blows bubbles in the water.

A decaying fairy performs a moonlit dance on the petals of flowers for an entranced human. two other fairies lie in ambush for the human.Volcanic slough- An oil painting of an volcanic environment at a dark, moody sunset. Glowing orange and yellow Lava flows over cliffs like a waterfall into a swamp creating steam.
The swamp water is a grey blue reflecting the lava flows and steam in some areas. There is a small rapids as the water flow exits at the right side of the painting.
A volcano in the background spews ash into the air as it is about to erupt.
Knight ink- A monochromatic ink painting of a large knight, twice the size of a normal human. It rides on the back of a gigantic vulture bee. The knight wears lamellar armour and wields a long spear with a banner flowing in the wind.
The bee has giant mandibles and is expelling a noxious honey from its abdomen.
Swarms of smaller bees fly around the duo.
