I’ve finally read Trainspotting and watched a film, and it’s given me such a boost of inspiration that I’ve actually felt the urge to have a go at painting. I had to dig out some old gouache, and the brushes that had survived from my oil painting days so it's kinda rough #art #gouache #sketchbook

Everyoneeeeee, a friend has released a beautiful painting software with tons of optimizations and streamlined process. There's literally something for everyone! (including timelapse!!) Consider checking out if you've ever wanted to quit adobe and subscription models kalapaint.app

genAI is rapist technology. lack of consent and thrill of domination/conquest is the feature, not a side effect. it's about taking and violating the sanctity of what's precious to others.

Well, as a surprise to no one #Cara has been scraped again!. Another crook taking what’s not there’s. The damage this is doing to the platform both physically and financially is huge. The #GenAI movement is an absolute curse.

I think a lot of ppl underestimate how much their dollar actually helps artists, writers, journalists etc. And I think a lot of people overestimate how following translates to income. I don't have a 1$ tier so it is hard to convert, but about 1% of my following is actual subscribers.

people get intimidated by the social belief of "supporting the arts" as like donating $5,000,000 for a new wing at a museum or hosting some gala it's not. 10% of our audience throwing us $1.00 a month would literally be *life-changing* money most artists are in the same boat.

thinking about the popularity of so many "redraw trends" and plagiarism of compositions by all sorts of artists (it comes up often for gposing but 2D artists do it too). i have to sum up my discomfort with it as follows: it's artists treating other artists the same way A/I treats art as data
