I’m going to an 80s themed thing and I don’t really have the wardrobe for it, so I’m just wearing a shit ton of teal eye shadow

Aw thank you ❤️

Great point

Played around a little with these

Watercolor and gouache on paper

Let’s see if this gets done today ✨

Ps. Love doing color tests in printer paper that buckles and feels like shit, it’s definitely not because using watercolor paper feels wasteful and expensive (:

it do be like this sometimes

I haven't been able to find a paying project for months. Can you help? Every share is appreciated.

Everything is going like shit today (:

I’m restructuring my Notion and, while it’s taking forever, I am so so happy with how it’s shaping out. I didn’t do templates before, they are an absolute game changer and the few databases I have already updated work like a charm.

Showed my students your work this week (graphic design 2nd semester, I teach them illustration w traditional mediums) and they were blown away. Love your stuff!

Just saw a report that data centers used by gen AI companies make the land around them warmer by up to 16 degrees celsius, and now I have to start the week with desires of murder in my heart

I wouldn’t vehemently disagree, but I would point out that soup implies boiling and we don’t typically boil cereal

Went to lunch with my parents and they hid chocolate easter eggs for hubby and I all over the living room and my studio. I love that they keep these silly little traditions alive even though we’re all adults now ❤️🐇🥚

Directory of No Gen AI Artists

Just checked today and the No gen AI directory seems to have no more pending apps?? AND the application form is open? That can't be right. Anyway, appreciate any shares to get this into the hands of people who need visual artists for their projects!

I use Notion for everything. It’s a little overwhelming at first because it’s very customizable and has many features. But once you find how it best works for you I feel like it’s the absolute best. I do note taking, archiving, project management, everything over there.

If anyone gets this a huge burden will be lifted off my brain. I feel like my brain itches and I can’t scratch it lol, I’ve gone through all my “following” lists on twitter, here, instagram and I just can’t find them anywhere

But the art style has thin black linework that doesn’t vary much in pressure but has some texture (a little stippled maybe??). Reminds me a lot of Alariko, but more stylized, less details and the themes of the pieces I remember seem to me more fantasy-like.

In case anyone reading this magically knows who I’m thinking of: they do a lot of landscapes, often with little characters inserted like in a corner like they’re in the middle of a journey. I remember lots of green hills and blue skies, sometimes a castle?

There is an illustrator I used to follow on Twitter, whose name I don’t know or remember, that I can’t find anywhere and it’s driving me insane. I wanted to show a friend a week ago, as a style reference for a piece he’s working on, and I’ve gone through all my socials and I just can’t find them.

Incredibly adorable little bastard, even if she tried to eat my eye, no cuter little demon than her

Ow that’s awesome for your kid! Worth the effort for sure ❤️

Never read one of his books, just watched Project Hail Mary last week (loved it) and I am SO confused that this is his take? How do these authors not realize what they apparently write? Apart from believing literature is just entertainment, how does he not see the social themes in his own story?

I’m sure I’ll regret getting on this high horse when I finally have a kid but I’ll do my very best to raise them on older animation. Sit through Kiki’s Delivery Service or there’s no dinner lil guy, I want you to be able to think 😂 I get genuinely worried about this, it feels wrong

The Mario Galaxy movie felt like a bunch of tiktoks one after the other, nearly incoherent and giving you no time to breathe. Is this a “kids today have no attention span” thing? It almost feels damaging

They will definitely try to shift the blame! That’s why it’s important we keep being loud about it, so when the time comes the least amount of people possible believe their bull

Students asked what happened to my eye and in the spirit of April fools I very seriously told them I got in a fight at the supermarket line. They believed it for a very short moment, then I confessed it was my asshole of a cat 😅

Very ready to watch it burn, as the entire global economy seems to be doing like shit regardless. At least we can be struggling and smug, instead of struggling and depressed lol

Can we quit sincerely telling people that having their works plagiarized is flattering? It's a violation.

hbomberguy nailed it when he broke down how plagiarism is not done out of admiration, it's driven by disrespect. Nothing flattering about that.

Be careful folks, today is April Fool's Day, which means that the internet will be rife with misinformation and posts designed to deceive. Don't worry though, tomorrow we will be back to normal, and the internet will be rife with misinformation and posts designed to deceive.
