pettiest thing I’m mad about w corporations embracing genAI is that they’ve historically always been obsessively controlling over ensuring brand guidelines are followed, but now as soon as they don’t need to pay an invoice to a human, its fine when their mascot has 3 arms

I really like this thread. This really is such a struggle, I'm so tired of being told I need to make a brand to be successful. Maybe I just want to draw fish and share my fish with people who like them

Got some pieces out of the kiln! Im really happy with how they came out 🙌 Strongly considering making more eels 👀 #ceramics #handmade #art

I don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.

Saw some videos where they put down the complimentary color first for the shading, then go over it with the main color, so I decided to experiment! ...it looks like it doesn't work quite as well with alcohol markers 😅 The videos used watercolors lol It was a fun experiment tho! #alcoholmarkers

Two trees and five bushes. The shading for the first tree was done in red marker, with green over it for the leaves. The shading for the second tree was done in reddish violet, with yellow-green over it for the leaves.
For comparison, two of the bushes were done how I usually color trees / bushes, with three different value markers of similar hue.

The colors didn't mix the way they do with paint, so the red and reddish violet didn't blend nicely like I wanted.

A pancake bunny plushie I made as a white elephant gift the other day! It was very last minute so I needed to be super quick with making the pattern, cutting, and sewing everything 😅 I think hand sewing the butter closed took longest... #plushie

Front view of a pancake bunny plushie. The top is a warm brown, the underside is a light tan. It has light tan eyes and nose, and a pale yellow square butter on its head.

My piece for @dredgefanzine.bsky.social! The entire pattern is part of the zine, so if anyone wants to make one, check it out! (+ tag me if you do 👀) It's two sided. -- the Bronze Whaler is one side and the Bloodskin Shark is the other #dredge #felt #sharks

A felt ornament of a Bronze Whaler, propped up against a piece of driftwood. There are oysters around it, and a blue background.
The ornament has a fish charm and uses different fishing knots on the string.

The other side has the Dredge aberration version of this shark, the Bloodskin Shark.

Well, I can officially vouch for the durability of my stickers! This one has lasted 3 full con days + being stuck to 3 different shirts ✨ (4 more days!!!! #silksong)

Cropped picture of me focused on the large sticker on my shirt. The sticker is of a white sign and Hornet wall-clinging to the side of the sign. Written on the sign is "4 days!!! September 4th!"

Digital art piece. Has a reptilian kaiju skull with sharp teeth and 5 eye sockets. The skull's mouth is open, and Enn's OC, Haru, is standing inside its jaws. The upper half of Haru's body is visible, with his back facing the viewer. He's glancing over his shoulder.
He's wearing the JAKDF uniform (Kaiju No8), and one of his arms is skeletal, sounded in a bubbling red aura. The kaiju the skull belongs to bit off this arm.

In the bottom left there's a sunflower with a small bee on it, and in the right, there's a skull with honey and a bee on top of it, an honey dripping from one of the eyes.
There are stars in the corners of the card, and starburst lines going out from each corner towards the center bee. The stars, lnes, and center bee are symmetrical.
