Portrait of my half-elf druid Aisha, with deep blue hair flowing up and details that look like the aurora borealis in her hair. She's surrounded by little glimmers and stars. Fanart of Chetney from Critical Role Campaing 3. He's holding a carving tool in front of a art nouveau inspired border, on the background is a night sky with a white and a red moon, and wooden figurines. Watercolor of a gothic door with plants growing on it. Fanart of Trehearne, from Guild Wars 2, looking to the right and shouting, with one arm up.

Pinterest CEO says in layoff email: "We’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working"

So it's time for me to move to another platform to save images
Linkedin Post from a Pinterest designer reading: "Yesterday I was impacted by the Pinterest layoffs. I was Pinterest's only icon designer and product illustrator. In his email to the company, the CEO said "we’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working". I WAS working on AI projects including the Pinterest Assistant that soft-launched in October. If you haven't heard about that feature launch, you can find it on Pinterest's own newsroom or with a Google search. I was vocal internally about how our users don't want AI slop or features on the platform, how we as employees are feeling uncomfortable and discouraged about AI, and what I wanted from leadership. Last year, I told my manager I was worried about AI-based layoffs. I was told not to worry. At an onsite, we were told that "in the future", we would all be "managers of AIs". That I would be expected to manage some sort of AI employees, rather than craft and design my own work. Human-made art and design matter. I am never going to stop creating, even if the "home of inspiration" decides that creators are secondary to profits. If you want to support me, you can follow me on threads or instagram @bonniekatewolf where I post my hand-knit sweaters and oil paintings. If you want to hire a human illustrator, designer, or iconographer, my email and DMs are open for freelance, contract, or FTE roles."

Having a bit of a bashful moment 🫢

#OC #ocsky #art
An illustration of my original character, Aleron. He has his back towards the viewer and is looking to the right with a slightly shocked and bashful expression on his face with a hand close to his lips. He has long dark blue hair with glowing cyan ends in a high ponytail. He is wearing a dark blue hanfu that has silver collars and a silver belt with a red ornament hanging from it. The inner sleeves are cyan. He has fair skin, blue eyes, elven ears with a gold sun earring and a gold ring on his ring finger. Behind him is a traditional chinese building and surrounding him are patches of all grass. The atmosphere is at night with moonlight shining down upon him but below him are warmly lit fireflies. In the right side of the illustration, some glowing red hair can be scene, belonging to Bhargavi who has walked ahead of him. It is snowing.

Last one of the gothic doors watercolor series, and the hardest one to make.

Last year I painted a series of gothic doors on watercolor, and it's time to post them.
This is the first one, and my favorite.

Essa é a primeira delas, e a minha favorita.

Ever since I saw the xpac announcement, I was fascinated with this tree, so I needed to paint it for fun!
It was a fun watercolor to paint.

Fanart of Guild Wars 2: Visions of Eternity

so many of the small indignities of daily life come from us being denied the ability to tell a rich man in a tech company to fuck off. minesweeper has microtransactions. paid services have ads. the opt out says maybe later. the drive thru is a broken chatbot. your car is an ipad. fuck off! fuck off!

Maybe it's time that I post this. It's a deeply personal piece that I have long hesitated to share, but today is the day.

And, maybe, you've felt like this too.
An image of a crow crowned by a red moon. It is breaking the strings that tie it down and flying away from hands that resemble fire and reach toward it while embers float through the air.

Let's say i started to draw at the age of 20, and I'll live until 80.
Including personal work, let's be generous and say, on average, I'll make 50-100 illustrations per year.
That's about 3-6000 fully rendered illustrations of high quality in my whole lifetime.
Again, including personal art. +

HOWDY🌱 cowpokes I made a FREE tutorial on how to make your own download page for comics, art packs, zines etc w/ NO CODE on your own carrd site.

i'm a queer nsfw artist that knows a few things about websites
saddle up if you a Carrd, Stripe acc, & 20 mins: whskyspurs.art#makeyourowns...
Escaping the cleanse :) This is for creators that want to sell their work (artbooks, zines, animations, comics etc) with pay-per-download! Something similar to gumroad , itch.io except you get to host it on YOUR website! Cause if you don't have one by now, then you need to get one now!
