🎶 How the gentle wind beckons through the leaves 🎶 🍂 Finished my #overthegardenwall inks! I wanted to capture a woodcut/woodburn illustration aesthetic which fits the vibe of OTGW so well and let me reconnect with my linocut printing days from art school (eons ago). Now onto the colours!

Bell has said that how they are received at THIS SHOW will determine how they use their A I photo booths going forward, so if you want to let them know how unacceptable this is, please make sure Bell and FanExpo know.

If you’re at FanExpo today, folks will be doing a stand in at the Bell booth at 3pm to voice their concerns.

SAY NO TO A I ART!

PSA: If you're at FanExpo Canada this weekend, take a moment to stop by the Bell Canada A I Photo Booth to tell them how upsetting it is that they're undercutting the artists of Artist Alley by offering free A I photos (that's trained on the stolen art of creators) to attendees.

Bell Canada photo booth at FanExpo Canada that has several booths set up for people to get free AI portraits done with a prompt generator.

Here's a weird shot! A rare glimpse at my colouring process, using bold contrasting fills to block out discrete elements before diving in with the correct colours. Some areas like the top castle, coat, Howl and Sophie, etc I've started to actually colour correctly.

Howl's inks are done! Colours are well underway.

(I think I definitely improved Howl's hair and feet with some friends feedback 😅)

Zine scribbling. Print outs of digital art to draw over, scan back in, scribble some more. See where it takes me.

It’s like a fake video game manual / art book / zine / and some melancholy feelings about creativity

Thanks for all the appreciation on this piece! Some folks might not consider ~50ish likes cause for celebration, but as someone who had been stagnant on insta for forever with 4,000+ followers and gets about this same amount of traction, I’ll cheer a tiny bit with only 150+ followers here! 😅🥰
