to me, “you should create for yourself” and “you deserve to be acknowledged for what you make” are two statements that should coexist. chasing engagement will rot your soul, while being neglected will see your passion wither. loving what you make is a failsafe for when the engagement never comes.

Reposting possibly my most famous tweet over here

I miss my garden so much... thank goodness spring is here. My giant marigolds from last summer were golden & huge and smelled like the sun.

growth doesn't have to be earned through pain or suffering you can grow through joy and pleasure too

Got a wonderful package today! Another beautiful & intricate book by @charamath.bsky.social 💜🎨

Wish there was an easter egg hunt for adults 😤🥚🐰

I once got to pet a tamed Fennec Fox and it was the Softest Thing I Have Ever Felt. And I got to feed him a bit of deli ham.

Did you use limewire and how bad did it fuck up your computer?

🎉It's another artist birthday! Harry Rountree was one of the best at anthropomorphic animals (especially birds and rabbits) in books for children during the early part of the 20th century. He was incredibly skilled and versatile in watercolor, pen and ink and gouache.

🎉Happy Birthday to Heinrich Kley, who was born on this day way back in 1863. Kley was a German illustrator, who gained popularity with his energetic pen & ink drawings in "Youth" art magazine. His work was collected in a series of sketchbooks--which are still in print, over a century later!

"How can I make and share art in times like this?" How can I not? I know that when I see powerful art from others it steadies me, reminds me why we're here, what we're capable of, and encourages me to keep going. If I can do the same for others that matters.

Apparently Adobe popped to Bluesky like a flower in Spring. And then ended like that.

I got a Kamvas 22 Plus (because I am weak) and it has shaken up my little world - the drawing area is MASSIVE and it feels amazing ✨✍️

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

Wait. Just found out that the CEO of Gumroad now works at DOGE? And that he saved up loads of money 'cause he fired everyone and replaced them with AI? I'm leaving the platform as soon as I get my money. Jesus christ. tedium.co/2025/04/06/g...

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

do y'all remember when they found all that tf art in Osamu Tezuka's drawer post-mortem because I think about it often anyway keep chasing your bliss and draw weird shit, god knows we need that right now

I’m seeing a lot of negative reviews on games along the lines of “this isn’t exactly what I wanted, even though it was exactly what was promised”. I can’t overstate how much more joy you will have if you allow art to unfurl in front of you, instead of demanding it be what you imagine you want.

I cannot emphasize this enough, and I do not mean it in a sexual way To achieve a high standard of ANYTHING, one must have an irresistible drive towards it That irresistible drive is horniness in all its forms, regardless of whether it has a sexual context You MUST be horny for your creations

I love being a human artist and creating something never before seen, out of my mind’s eye. I love making every decision with care. I love trying and failing. I love noticing mistakes and fixing them. I love it all.

Zelda Williams (the daughter of the great Robin Williams) sure had a lot to say about the “Studio Ghibli style” AI images that have been trending recently. I think those people should read these posts and really think about what they’re doing.

Reminder

Stop sharing the Ghibli AI slop, what is wrong with you: aftermath.site/studio-ghibli-...

become ungovernable. write and draw that fucked up shit. get real weird with it. too niche? too avant-garde? too strange? turn it up. RELEASE YOUR INHIBITIONS, FEEL THE RAIN ON YOUR SKIN

Excellent, an excuse to re-post one of my favourite Nichijou scenes:
