Happy #PortfolioDay 🙂 I'm Davis, an artist who created the Welcome to Bluesky Comic. I'm also an engineer and have created feeds and tools for artists, like @aimod.social. Great to meet you!

A digital illustration, a low angle showing Link and Zelda facing away. Link has his hands on his hips, Zelda is tilting her head looking at a map. In the background is Peach’s Castle, from the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario, in his boxers, is jumping angrily from the castle’s bridge toward Link and Zelda. Peach is on the castle balcony looking shocked with her hand over her mouth. A digital illustration of banjo-kazooie in a sketchy and rough style. Digital drawing with traditional appearance. A woman in a loosely fitting dress that covers everything but her neck up and forearms to hands. Her hands are clasped. Her hair is blowing upward and entwined with planets and stars. Her head is upturned and peaceful. She’s part of everything and distinct. #art Digital painting of an ethereal woman shackled in outer space, her head replaced by a black hole. The black hole's radiating energy merges with the cosmos, while dark bands swirl around her body, symbolizing entrapment. The image conveys the idea that absolute certainty is a mental prison, with the woman’s chains and the black hole illustrating the constraints of rigid thinking.

Word of mouth does more than you think.

It's also why I yell about how much fun I had with a game or book or comic etc, how much I liked a thing b/c just maybe someone else will also get joy out of it. I tell friends who I specifically thing might like a thing.
It helps SO much ❤️

Reviews.

Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.)

Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!

my comics advice that's somewhat related to "show feet" is that imo learning to draw distant things via less detail is more useful than scaling down your brush. a lot of newbies want to draw distant/small figures by just drawing smaller, but it turns mushy! and it takes forever!!

I’ve mentioned this before but I think it’s worth repeating regularly: your awesome friends probably don’t know how awesome they are. In fact, they probably doubt it on a regular basis. Let them know how great you think they are 🥰

Woke and saw a News notification on my phone, and thought, “FINALLY, some fun news, instead of more hate and dread to start my day.”

And then I saw everyone’s favorite Bluesky Dino expert wrote it 🥰 @restingdinoface.bsky.social
How dinosaur vomit has solved these prehistoric mysteries A new pterosaur species was recently discovered in the vomit of a dino. But that's just the start of revelations from prehistoric excretions. BY RILEY BLACK PUBLISHED DECEMBER 08,2025

McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad

The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

A comics cover; in the centre is DC’s Stargirl, holding her cosmic staff above her head. It’s bursting light upwards, and energy is bursting around her. Behind all of that is a galaxy full of stars

I am always reminded of Qinni when i think of starry art. Here is a painting i made for #starsforqinni after she passed in 2020. @qinniart.bsky.social 💜
Watercolour painting of a girls face in a goldfish bowl, with a goldfish jumping above. The water is galaxy coloured with many stars and sparkles. The girl has galaxy coloured hair and stars on her cheeks like freckles. She wears a moon ring. Her face is propped on her hands and her eyes are shut. Text underneath reads, "STARS FOR QINNI".

quote with your starry art 🔭
A surreal digital artwork depicting a young woman with short, wavy hair, whose eyes and part of her face are obscured by an arc-shaped band of starry space. The space band includes planets and celestial bodies orbiting around her head, blending with her hair. She wears a dark, high-necked outfit that appears to merge with the starry background, giving the impression that she is part of the cosmos. The color scheme is a mix of soft ochre tones and deep space purples.

I really do appreciate that I get 2 vacation days every week, but I think, as a society, we could do better.

When it comes to the big games from big studios, I definitely feel this way.

Not to mention all the time wasted just sitting there, dodging responsibilities while mindlessly scrolling through stuff you don’t care about, feeling too guilty to do the things you actually want to do.

Academics/scientists tend to be Democrats

ICE agents tend to be MAGA

Academics wouldn’t do what ICE does

ICE agents couldn’t do what academics/scientists do

Don’t tell me both parties are the same
