I know I'm not on here much, but over the last year I've gotten really interested in pottery! It's been a really great outlet. I hope you'll take a look! acpottery.com

Hi #PortfolioDay ! I do book covers and comic covers, working on both full color digital and traditional media using graphite and ink.
Just repeating it because some are repeating Microsoft's lies unquestioningly about them having to cut people to save money, etc. Their gaming division was 26 *billion* USD in the black. They had just posted record revenue. They were swimming in money. But Microsoft wants to invest *80bn* in AI.
New from me, on The Guardian (!!): Generative AI is causing new, unusual problems for game developers — people are being accused of using it, even when they say they haven't. Building trust between a studio and its player base is more important than ever. www.theguardian.com/games/2025/j...
A real issue: video game developers are being accused of using AI – even when they aren’t
Generative AI is causing new and unusual problems for developers as players become more sensitive to the use of artificially generated ‘slop’ images

I’m watching a board game video for a new game, and surprise! Art I did 15yrs ago for an older game is featured in this new game. While I’m flattered, obviously I didn’t get paid for the card I probably got $100 back in the day. Anyway, this a cautionary tale for why work for hire sucks people.
ARTISTS! I'm sharing my contract template with simplified language and easy to fill in sections This will be most helpful for smaller clients bc corps have their own contracts But providing the contract will help protect you from giving away rights to your art! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

It's been a while since I've done a commission, but I'm delighted to be working again for a musical artist, Marian Tem. It was a real pleasure to work with Marian, who gave me a lot of freedom to interpret his music in an illustration. So many thanks to him for his trust ✨🖤✨ #art #surrealism
1/4 Well look at that. Open Ai and Google outright reject “Opt-Out” models, hell they even reject basic transparency requirements. AI companies demand they get everything, including our Intellectual Property, for free, and without anyone ever being able to tell the companies no.
AI giants reject government’s approach to solving copyright row
OpenAI and Google have objected to Labour’s proposed opt-out model and pushed for broader exemptions to let AI software use copyrighted material free

Don't tell anyone but I think my dream is to make concept art for something that very few people would be interested in buying.
RIMRUNNER (2011) Oil - 18” x 28” A painting in The End of Nature subset of my personal work, which represents humanity as somewhat oblivious to the support that nature provides for them. 1/2
It's been a long time since i had the opportunity to work on First person guns. So i scratched the itch with these 3 Fantasy-themed weapons.

Right? I’d move if I could but with many game industry companies going back on their remote promises, I become very distrustful if me or my partner have to look for work outside of an industry “hub”.
Krys Loh@pseudomachine.bsky.social · 2y agoI am BEGGING people in blue states to not say sweeping cruel things abt those of us living in red states trying really fking hard to oppose all of this shit. Some of the shit people say is so demoralizing & there are literally millions of us in each state trying to make meaningful change.
I do not know how to cope with the news right now. It has been beyond insanity.
A collection of the gouache paintings I did last month.
My mom does really beautiful, expressive, and insightful work, and I’m happy she’s making the move from insta to here. I hope you’ll give her work a follow.
Kim Schrag@studiowallnotes.bsky.social · 2y agoI’m experimenting with eco-friendly paint, Earth Paint. An alternative to acrylic. It feels like gouache, but seals between layers. Any eco-friendly paint that you like?
Still completely surreal to me that Google chose to light its search engine on fire
