A semi-retired traditional realistic illustrator who is not anti-social, but is selectively social. I am definitely anti-generative AI and anti-Trump.

Back on Blue Sky. Just trying to see if it will work better for me this time around.

It's been great seeing wonderful art on Bluesky & being able to make new "friends," but we spend too much time online & on social media, so later today I'll be leaving Bluesky & maybe LinkedIn. I'll remain on Facebook, at least for now, if you're interested. Take care.

If anyone follows me and distorts their religious beliefs in order to justify their bigotry, prejudices, and hate, please unfollow me. I personally don't know any fellow atheists who use their non-beliefs for any such anti-human and regressive feelings, thoughts, words and actions.

Arthur Rackham (1867 – 1939) is recognized as one of the leading figures during the Golden Age of British book illustration. His work is noted for its robust pen and ink drawings, which were combined with the use of watercolor.

He is one of my favorites!

Anyone out there ever work for Little Buddy Agency and can tell me something about them? Thanks.

I've decided to stop illustrating & become a modern-day tech baker owning my own bakery! I have no talent, skills or ingenuity in that area, so I'll be doing what so many others are doing now. I'll go to every bakery nearby in the middle of the night & "scrape" all their ingredients and recipes!

He’s simply not worth mentioning, but for our nation’s and world’s sake and for the sake of all the people he hates because they’re not exactly like him, he’s worth fighting however and whenever we can.
