I’ve been working on this book (among other projects) for almost three years! 🖤✨ It’s the 27th book I’m illustrating, and but this is the most personal to me since I was there from the beginning, inventing the characters and the world together with author Frode Eie Larsen! #bookcover #kidlitart

First time I get to make a detailed map like this! I found it really hard at first, but once I lay the first layer of charcoal powder it started to appear more easily.. 🖤✨ Welcome to Alvheim, in #skrothandlerensdatter ✨🖤✨ #map #fantasyart #kidlitart

It really takes time to make a book like this with hand drawn illustrations all the way! Closing in on the last days. Really hoping this will be well received in Norway and find its readers! 🖤✨ #charcoal #illustratorlife #kidlitart

Got to visit my daughter’s school today to show what an illustrator does! It was so much fun! 😍 Think I inspired a few to draw more and to see that this is actually a real job.. 😆 #kidlitart #illustratorlife

So Pinterest is not only flooded with AI, it also automatically uses your data for more AI-training to improve their “Pinterest Canvas” 🙄 You can opt out through options > privacy rights > disable Gen AI or as below in Swedish.

Pinterest, an app where most of the content is unauthorized reposts of other people’s copyright protected work, is developing generative AI and they think offering a hidden OPT-OUT toggle is good enough? “Use your data […]” Whose data??
