Bringing this back cuz artists going "world is collapsing and things are bad and I'm just doing art :(" So? Art is inspirational. Art motivates. Art is rebellious. Art is expressive. ur art might not change the world, but it can contribute to something positive Yes, even ur art of men kissing.

Good morning✌️🍀

If you're pro genAI please don't follow me. Especially if you think the programs have souls/ are sentient beings and are accusing artists of "abusing and harassing" said programs. 🙄

While Cris is working on the Gnoll body, Jenni is making some Digivice orders 🙌 #plushartist #plushart #digimon

🌻 NEW VIDEO! 🌻 Want people to love your OCs as much as you do? I've got some tips for YOU!! youtu.be/DDXnOXlXOYM #ocs #ocsky #artfight

Everyone’s gotta start somewhere, and there’s no better time to learn! neocities.org

We really do not talk enough about the evil billionaires choose to do. If that isn't reason enough for there NOT to be billionaires I don't know what is.

With #anotherMonday behind us, I urge you to look into webdev solutions to make your own site, your archive, your portfolio, your blog. Just a place online with a gallery to put your stuff that you are already sharing on social media. Your online notebook, by yourself.

Sometimes I forget that not everybody grew up coding websites for class and tweaking their blogs and such to fit their identity. Another thing lost when Socmed took over.

If you have an original idea or series you are trying to work on and want to share, this is my invitation to talk about it here. Your creativity deserves its time to shine. Tell us about your OCs. Your inspiration. What you want your creation to say or do for yourself, your audience, or the world!

I definitely find myself online for community and not-feeling-alone in what I (try to) do. The actual "working on the things I want to achieve" part, I could do alone in a bunker, honestly (that ASD mental lock-in thing). But I like to come up for air and feel not alone. IDK how to explain.

Aseprite, Krita, Affinity Photo, Paint Shop Pro, Photopea!

Thank you for lending me your OCs! @kuroiotori.bsky.social @sniperct.bsky.social @danielknightley.bsky.social @ace-of-dragons.bsky.social @giltine13.bsky.social @harmoniousrose.bsky.social

Nothing quite beats the feeling when you grasp a new coding language enough to make something happen without referencing the documentation files.🪲

I can't believe people think that using LLMs to write isn't destroying their critical thinking abilities. I'm like 5% dumber just because of spellcheck.

Creatives, stop explaining yourself for taking breaks, logging off, making what you want, fangirling over your favorite fandom, drawing the same characters over and over, drawing what you want, learning what you want, doing whatever the heck you want do you, babes

One of the biggest enshitifications imo is the fact that major companies no longer have customer service email addresses, but you can only reach out via tweet or Facebook DM.. I'm sorry, this is my boomer take; that is just unprofessional.

Oh it's June.. Gotta start preparing for Halloween 🎃👻🪲

Stumbled upon a video explaining some old Artist Alley drama regarding 3D printing from earlier this year. I never really considered it, but yeah, generic 3D prints probably shouldn't be sold there. It really crowds out other artists, even the ones that _do_ design their own prints.

A bro short I did a while back about artists that pursue NSFW lewd art. Pokes fun at the stigma, the money you can “make” doing it, and the skills needed for it. Not as funny as the sketchbook bros short, but still had fun boarding it!

Those Monday mornings, am I right? #OrichalcumCup | #comic | #ocsky | #TraditionalArtist | #DutchArtist

Teresa's powers make her a battery! She can absorb energy from any power source and get "charged". while charged she gets incredibly strong and can expel energy as bolts of lightning.

SkyMuseum is live! We hope you enjoy playing our game as much as we loved making it. What started as an experiment is now a full 3D gallery where you can explore Bluesky feeds and art shares like the works of art they truly are. Download it here: twigbit.itch.io/skymuseum
