For me the whole point of doing what I'm doing-art is a way of processing life. I don't see the value in outsourcing any element of that.
When I'm looking at someone else's project, if I see an element of the environment [where] they use generative fill or whatever to change something about the scene, it just shuts off the part of my brain that wants to know more about that world. Because I would assume if they're willing to make an arbitrary choice there, they could make an arbitrary choice with literally anything.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wk7ktvs3sld47pgfndy43gyp/bafkreid3oivudz5p3kmcuu6ss3gr2tmy73r3uqe3ljh6h5rxbeax2dcme4)

How many of us feel in a cold rage today? Mine is directed at Farage & this comment on yesterday's Guardian piece by John Crace is spot on. The writer uses a pseudonym or I would credit them but, to whomever he or she is, I say bravo.
We're so proud to have @fruitypy.bsky.social, as a trans woman of colour, speaking for us here. The abuse directed at her for this has been awful. Though anti-trans activists claim they are silenced, they deliberately put a huge cost on speaking up while trans. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

May the 4th be with you! Here's something from a project where each scene of A New Hope was drawn by a different artist but from a different perspective to the way it was shot. So all together, you'd have the whole movie but each scene would be in a different style and from a different perspective.
I'm going to be running a "Create your own Mandalorian helmet art" workshop with some other artists this year at MCM Comic Con London! Should be fun, so if you're there that weekend, come take a break from the hectic convention and get creative with us.
