Paul Heaston @paulheaston.bsky.social · 07/12/2025Been thinking about teaching again since my wife lost her job and we need a reliable income, and assuming I could teach full time (unlikely when you’re an adjunct) I could *maybe* make $50k a year before taxes. So that would just about cover our cost of living assuming we don’t eat. 0180 18
Paul Heaston @paulheaston.bsky.social · 14/11/2025The last five years for me have been very difficult for my mental health in terms of being an artist. I’m having a lot of doubts, and I’m having a hard time finding the inclination to keep making art. Is anyone else feeling the same way and what has helped? 5300 30

Paul Heaston @paulheaston.bsky.social · 26/07/2025I mostly keep the drawing oriented the same way the entire time. I might tilt a little but I find I get lost with whether or not the hatching is working if I rotate too much. 010 1

Paul Heaston @paulheaston.bsky.social · 15/03/2025It’s about 3:1 water to ink, but I don’t measure it out exactly, I just mess w/it until it looks right. I use tap water but the artist I learned this from uses distilled water as it won’t separate from the ink or clog the feed of the brush. I haven’t had have too many problems with tap. 130 3

Reposted by Paul HeastonKat Tenbarge @kattenbarge.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Just a reminder of some of the context around the TikTok ban: In 2020, Trump tried to ban it via executive order a couple months after K-pop fans used it to organize fake signups to Trump’s Tulsa rally, which led him to publicly overestimate how large the crowd size would be. 162174095043 17.4K
Paul Heaston @paulheaston.bsky.social · 13/01/2025Thanks for letting me know. I’ve heard about it, seems like a phishing scam targeting my followers. It’s not my email address and the recipients aren’t in my contacts so I’m not sure what the scam is but I do t appear to have been hacked, just being impersonated. 010 1
