It's that time of year again 🍂🍁✨ I've actually really been looking forward to autumn this year. Let the ultimate cozy season begin~ 😌🧡

I love the curve of a horse neck as the crane over their shoulder and look into the horizon.
In this period of time filled with AI stupidity, let's celebrate those we are not celebrating enough: Art supporters, Art commissioners THANK YOU! Thanks to YOU, many artists can do what they do the best and keep being productive but most importantly Artists can LIVE!
Even in these enshittified times, there is always someone on the internet with a post or video to explain how to do mysterious art things. Stretch watercolor paper?✔️ Apply varnish?✔️ Choose work for conventions? ✔️ Artists help artists, if you look.
Is this a sunset or the glow of a distant fire? We'll never know! :3c 💥 For @effrasorbus.bsky.social 💥 ⌈ #artfight2026 #teamcomedy ⌋

Every year for Pride, I repost Hue. I made him to send love and comfort to those who feel Pride isn’t for them because they aren’t out. You matter, you are valid, and it’s ok if you aren’t ready yet. Coming out is not a requirement for being part of this community. Happy Pride 🌈
This is basically what my entire working life has been about. I 💜 print, but it can be a pain to translate from digital to physical media. Lots of good tips in here!
KikiDoodle & Purrmaids @ BLFC@kikidoodle.bsky.social · 4mo agoI keep seeing posts by folk confused why their prints aren't screen accurate, and the common theme is that they seem to have ZERO idea that their computer screen is RGB (colors mixed using light) and that all printers are CMYK (colors mixed using ink). So, have some VERY generalized printing tips:
the thing about moral panics is they aren't about moral panics. it's about community control and rampant bigotry. censorship is a tool of fascists, those who purity police are fascists, and if your disgust agrees with their mission more than the right for fiction to gross you out, you are a fascist
How to use AI ethically: 1) DO NOT USE AI. THERE IS NOTHING ETHICAL ABOUT IT.
“Creative breakthroughs happen when visionary storytellers are given access to transformative tools”-- Actually, creative breakthroughs happen when people don't have to drink brown water from data center waste. This is not cool or accessible, this is disingenuous & disappointing.

Sharing a few relaxed and leisurely kitten sketches, all of them are classic works that I personally love. Take a moment to relax with the kittens too, stretch a little, and enjoy being lazy for a while. #shouxinsketch #petart #animalart #illustrationartists #sketch
Nala. An unclaimed spring ych, that I thought I better make use of, instead of letting to to waste.
