Gradients, smudge tool, blur - they’re all great tools, until your art turns into a blurry mess. A soft rendering style is not easy to pull off, which is why I made a video about it ~ this one comes with 3 smudge brushes that I made myself! ✨ Find it here: www.patreon.com/posts/tutori...

This is a technique I’ve used for years because of this one tweet from @sonnyross.bsky.social. Thank you Sonny for changing my life The book cover was designed by Talia Abramson at Penguin but they let me have a bit of a say over the colours. And I said boy do I have an idea….

Tweet from Sonny that says “don’t watch a 3 hour YouTube vid about colour theory just pick from this photo I’m not joking,” with the picture of Jim Henson and the muppets

if white Americans didn’t want Mexicans in California maybe they should not have conquered California from Mexico and then spent 150 years building up an economy entirely dependent on the flow of people and goods across the border just a thought

Latest bisque load! Fun part: flicking for the ding (no cracks!) Not as fun part: choosing glazes 😭 Anyone have any tips for choosing glazes to make it suck less? #pottersofbsky

Thrilled that "Axion" made it through the raku fire! 🔥✨ The third in my 'Liminal Dreams' series, it explores unseen forces and cosmic balance. What do you think of it? #art #sciart #space

A raku sculpture made of 3 intersecting rings and a ball floating in the centre. The ball is teal and the three rings are a mixture of colours including reds, purples, blues, browns and greys. View of the front.

45 hours in the studio in April, even with 10 days home with Covid. Hoping 50 hrs in May. I can reliably and quickly center at least 2 lb of clay I am starting to develop some design preferences I threw a pot tall enough I had to take off my watch instead of just shoving it further up my arm 😂🙌

Wow. Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum officially recognizes Palestine as a state. Here she welcomes Palestinian ambassador Nadya Rasheed. Sheinbaum is Jewish, supports Palestinian self-determination, & unapologetically condemns Netanyahu's attacks on Gaza. Historic & inspiring leadership. ❤️✊🏽

Today is my birthday and also day 19 of being in the hospital with a severe illness. I'm going to be greedy and wish for 2 things for my birthday: to have a full recovery, and for as many folks to see my artwork as possible today. 💚 Care to give this a repost to make that second wish come true?

Three deer are lined diagonally across the canvas. The first deer is a pale skeleton, the second a dark apparition with coiling smoke flowing from it's body, and the third is a translucent skeleton. The deer are linked by a strange smoke that flows through their eyes, and the tines of their antlers are interlocked. This drawing was inspired by Pneuma by Tool.

A commission for bardybirdy featuring the OC Errai. A drawing of a dragon posed against a starry blue night sky. The dragon is mostly dark shades of blue and purple with golden accents. She has large feathered wings and a curved crystal horn. Her neck curls around a comet, her golden claws gently caressing the comet's tail. The radiant light of the comet casts serpentine rays that mimic the stylized flow of her mane.

The moss-covered skeleton of an ancient unicorn stands motionless with a moth resting on it's skull. The creature appears to be able to see through the eyespots on the moths wings.

This OC belongs to SpiritSai and is the Demigod of Light in SpiritSai’s worldbuilding project. A drawing of a horse-like creature in an elegant floating pose. The creature has a long tail covered in gilded scales and tipped with silken hair. Her wings are yellow and blue with large scales on it’s back. Her legs are plated in the same gilded scales and end in golden cloven hooves with gold dewclaws. Her horn is curved like a scythe, and her dragon-like whiskers zigzag into the sky above her. She is surrounded by a divine glow as shooting stars cascade in the background.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.
