If, like me, you always wanted one of these for Christmas, then you might be interested in my Mr Frosty painting…

Relisting a lot of smaller one-off #paintings and #illustrations on Etsy at a better price, as Artfinder makes some huge scary changes… was happy to see this guy again though!

My online sales have been down this year, sadly, so I was very grateful to sell one each of my nouvelle vague #linocut prints recently.
There’s Agnes Varda and Jean-Luc Godard, reunited at last
Shop them here - www.etsy.com/uk/shop/IanV...

Another #linocut done! Still loving the process and finding out how to finesse it all. Happy with this soy sauce fish.
You can buy some of my previous #lino #prints here -

Even news papers here in Norway have started using AI-generated illustrations and cartoons. As a former employee, now dismissed newspaper cartoonist, I was provoced to draw this comic and send it to the editors.

Feel free to share the comic where you want!

A comic showing the problems of AI-generated images in a humoristic way.

I don’t usually jump onto trends, but I’m loving seeing artists and illustrators creating their own versions of the starter pack thing. Here’s my hand-drawn attempt, in pencil, acrylic and Posca pen. No AI.

Mazzamonk AKA Things That Make You Tick

@mazzamonk.bsky.social

Keith Allen Haring was an American artist whose pop art emerged from the New York City graffiti subculture of the 1980s. His animated imagery has "become a widely recognized visual language".

Between 1980-1985, Keith Haring created 5,000+ chalk drawings in NYC subways, shaping urban street art. I still remember his visits to the now-closed Dolce Vita club in Lausanne—what a time, especially since I was 20.
