Use reference. I’m serious. I get it that somehow you or someone convinced you that using reference is “cheating.” It’s not. You are just hindering yourself.

"Just practice" is good and necessary advice, but so frustrating for beginning artists to hear. I think what's missing is the assurance that drawing WILL get more fun. It really will. And the thing that makes it more fun is the control you develop after lots of practice. (thread repost) [tiptag]

Hi, I’m a sighted alt text user! Here are some reasons I use it: - Slow Internet on an airplane - I’m over 40, I have no idea who that celebrity is - Bluesky broke images again - My vision sucks and that text is too small to read otherwise - Conveys further context and authorial intent

people keep making movies where the premise is "it's kind of like a man but it looks like a monstrous freak but it's nice and sexy and doesn't abuse the woman so it's basically the most romantic thing ever" and men keep not getting it.

The image is of a four panel comic. 
In the first panel, we see a pair of ghosts. The first ghost says, “Let us make love, my darling.”
In the second panel, we see  see the second ghost’s face, blushing. It says, “Here? In public?”
In the third panel, we again see the pair of ghosts together. The first one says, “No one can see us, we’re ghosts!”
In the fourth panel, the title reads “the cat”. We see a cat looking up at them.

One of the best ways to isolate transphobes is just to repeatedly talk positively about trans people, even if you aren’t trans. It uplifts your trans followers *and* makes bigots know they aren’t welcome in spaces you’re in!

Bitten 🥀🩸 One of my favourite vampire illustrations I’ve painted to start off spooky month! ♥️🦇🩸
My illustration of original characters of a vampire gently holding and biting her beloved victim, who is wearing a beautiful white lace dress. They look like they’re innocently dancing or in a romantic embrace on a moonlit night.

The image is of a four panel comic.
In panel one, we see a crow’s face. It says, “I AM DEATH’S MESSENGER”.
In panel two, we see the same crow’s face. It continues, “YOUR TIME IS NEAR”.
In panel four, we see the crow awkwardly hopping away from a stick figure.
In panel five, we see the grim reaper with the crow perched on his hand. The grim reaper says, “So you should probably fly away dramatically instead.”

respectfully, you are absolutely wrong. being banned is *always* bad for authors, even in the EXCEEDINGLY rare case that they make some list that people go to. because the goal is for most of us that KIDS have access. and ANY kid that doesn't is an arrow straight thunk to my heart
I still remember when getting banned in visiting on your book cover was a guarantee of extra sales. this is different, but I think there is still some merit in being banned. it depends on who's going the banning and why

Sweet buns 🐇 #art
A collection of illustrations of bunnies against a wavy background of cream, pink and light brown. The bunnies are stylised to look like a variety of Swedish pastries, sweets and treats, including, from the top and from left to right: a princess cake, a strawberry, a cinnamon roll, a tiger cake, mudcake, a semla, a honeybun, a chocolate ball and a cream roll cake. Their tails are often stylised to look like the pastries they reference. What a cute fluffle of sweet buns!

A two-panel meme featuring frames from a news interview. In both top and bottom panels, a young man speaking into a Fox 5 news microphone looks shocked and wide-eyed. The top text reads: "If all they had to do was write an essay apologizing." The bottom text reads: "Well then so can Luigi."

Creating for yourself doesn't mean giving up the opportunity to share your art with the world. That's always been the artists' goal. That's not a greedy desire. Creating for yourself first is asking what YOU want before making the art. To never sacrifice your own voice in favor of attention.
