Anyone use VGen for commissions? If so does anyone find it helpful for gaining new clients or does it just help make the commission workflow more efficient? Im hoping to be able to draw again soon after I recover from this back surgery from last week. #Art #ArtSky

Happy Veterans day specifically to my grandpa. He flew a P47 Thunderbolt bomber plane in the Hell Hawks fighter group on D-Day and, to my knowledge, was the most decorated Jewish pilot in the air force. He was so so cool but barely talked about his time in the air force.

One of the best ways u can help your creative friends: sharing our work All day long ppl (many I don’t even know) send me reels on IG, meme posts they think I’ll find funny, etc. I’m grateful that any1 thinks of me enough to do that. If they’d share MY work w/ that same spirit?! Oh man.

every time I draw it hurts so bad :( hate having so many medical issues. I was preparing for MCAT when I realized my health would prevent me from being an MD. I thought art would work out instead but it's just gotten harder. I want to draw, but drawing for only an hour or two at a time sucks a lot.

this is one of my favorite medical illustrations that I've done back in 2020, my client was great and it ended up being published in the Journal of Hand Surgery, March 2021 :) #SciArt

I feel bad that people are following me bc I barely make art anymore. The motivation has just totally left me, but the desire hasn't. I'm hoping it will come back soon. I miss scribbling in my sketchbook.

There are few things as cost effective as Narcan, especially in a country where (entirely preventable) opioid overdoses have been a leading cause of death for years. For every 6 kits distributed 1 OD is prevented. The $56M in this grant trained >66K people and distributed >282,500 kits in 2024 alone
