drew whatever came up on my recommended pinterest board yesterday

one of those weeks where i need to break down my tasks into really small pieces and only commit to doing 1 thing a day. my reward is getting to play more FFX

Both my grandparents were draftsmen. My grandma had the most amazing handwriting because of this. I'm...well--I do draw. I'd really need to brush up on my math and geometry??

Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?

lrt ...kind of how people are becoming hyper-vigilant about labelling themselves "human-made" and oversharing process. Like nah, that's not my job actually. It's your job as the viewer to educate yourself on what art is and who made it. It's my job to make art that is true to me.

I don't know how to say this in a way that isn't snotty: if you are changing your writing intentionally to sound "not like AI" or whatever, I think extremely little of your craft. This is simply not a problem or a consideration for an even moderately developed writer www.wired.com/story/more-t...

i need to do way more life drawing, like a couple times a week at least (instead of my usual once every 6 months or when i have time, which is never)

By far the funniest moment in Homer’s Odyssey is when Circe says, “Shall we have sex?” and Odysseus says, “You just turned all my men into pigs. You have the GALL to think I would sleep with you? Of course I will. Absolutely. But don’t do any weird spells”

everyone should reflect on the fact that they can open up their little electronic boxes each morning and see the most beautiful art made by your contemporaries. how lucky we are

Kudzu is so crazy man! the way it spreads out feels like its a malevolent sentient demon

Public Domain Art is the lifeblood of small tabletop rpgs, but it can be a nightmare trying to find the right art and license. This week, I’ve re-uploaded my old list from 2020 (with updates) of public domain websites. That's 500,000+ public domain paintings, photos, maps, and film. Link below 🔗👇

hate to be a realist on main but jesus christ, scoob i can't stress enough, the best way to help an indie artist is to REC THE WORK. i have literally never in my life gotten a new subscriber by saying "i'm too poor to live" but i DO get new readers when someone excitedly reviews my books

I want people to understand the full impact of the devastation that First Nations in Canada are facing. It's NOT just that people and wildlife are losing their homes...it's the history that is being lost for generations to come.
