Look idk who needs to hear this cause I've seen alot of artists over the years dig this exact hole, but you need to finish your commissions. A percentage of your clients are going to be repeat commissioners. Another percentage of your clients heard about you from word of mouth. 🧵

European artists! The EU commission is opening a feedback on the use of AI in the cultural and creative fields. Their vision is clearly pro-use of AI, but we clearly have an opportunity to push back: ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet...

How comics actually work: some pages take an hour and some pages take eight hours and they're not always the ones you'd think. There are sometimes entire weeks taken up by research that MUST be completed before you can progress. And you also must account for several days lost to the Horrors

Attack for @piranyeah.bsky.social She's so cool!

PUNK'S NOT (UN)DEAD

Some ppl may not know this, but please ask artists first before using their artwork to reference gposes! There's a culture especially on the other site where art gets treated as another template for a "trend" and it's disheartening when your work gets reduced to just that :'')

Meta Now Lets Anyone Use Your Instagram Photos in AI Images—Unless You Opt Out

As part of Meta’s Muse Image model rollout, Instagram users with public accounts need to opt out to block AI generations of their content.

Here’s the part we all want to know which is behind the paywall. You’re welcome.

“As part of this update, public Instagram profiles are now automatically opted into being fodder for generative AI remixes. All someone has to do is tag your account’s profile in a prompt—if it’s public—and they can use Meta AI to generate an image using your likeness.”

Third #ArtFight attack on @gillyvor.co and @dips.bsky.social! Mika and Mura enjoying a cool treat on a hot day

Doodle of a character named Nessa that has never been drawn before but has existed for a long time. She's in Luke and Lily's story (she's close to Luke) and we love her. It's about time I gave her a first concept, even if it's a simple one. Belongs to myself and my friend #oc #ocart 🩵 🩷 🤍 🩷 🩵

✏️ Quote repost your OCs for Artfight ✏️ so many oc’s so little time 🤲 artfight.net/~berridraws/... #Artfight #Artfight2026 #TeamComedy

I keep finding people new to ArtFight that are clearly using AI for their character designs. Things to look out for: -No link to any socials -No refs of OC other than one and/or inconsistent art style in refs w/ no credit to other artists. -Inconsistent style in general

Whelp, my turn. Had some emergency dental work today (thankfully not as bad as it could have been) but I'm also going back to get a full exam next week. It's going to eat thru a chunk of my savings to the tune of about $1500. As always, I'll survive, but comms would be helpful in this time 🙏

My commissions are open for the summer!! I have sketch busts and larger, finished illustrations available! My sketch busts are skeb style, while the more finished illustrations account for some feedback! #commsopen #commissions ✨ ko-fi.com/nicterhorst/...

Fun fact: most of the awesome artists you follow don’t believe they’re all that awesome (silly, right?). But, you can totally tell them they’re awesome and repost their lovely posts to remind them that they really are great. 🥰
