Bought this, and printed. I of course managed to feed the pages in the wrong order, but that was not their fault. OK maybe it fits a horror theme. I love the use of different artists in this.
Put this up late last night! Printable PDF included so you can stuff the stocking of the horror fan in your life!!
The digital version of Handful of Horrors #1 (B/W Comic Anthology Zine) with writing by me and fantastic art by @sallycantirino.bsky.social, @markerslinger.bsky.social, and @das-boog.bsky.social is now available for purchase on the Skeleton Creative website!

still very much struggling moneywise :') anyone want to grab the last of these blankets so I can afford groceries + storage while I couchsurf....
all blankets and lionhearted tapestries have come in! I have a few more up for sale. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do another run after this as much as I'd like to due to the shaky tariff situation, so if you were interested in these, now is your best chance!

We were flooded by the heavy rain. The shelter is just nylon. Oh God, I'm so tired.

My bed and tent are flooded. What do I do now? Death would be more merciful than this suffering. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I'm fed up with everything😞

Literally, just thought about it; how I am not professional, but I have my own thing. Less than five minutes ago.
I think most artists hit a point where they’re like, well if I can’t be the best artist, I shall be the most ME artist.

I drew a monster with paint markers. This is number one in a series. You can participate by using my tag #ARmonster. I will share you on social media. You could use other art forms, such as writing, too. But remember #NoAI #NoNFTs! Read more in my blog: alinarouta.net/monster/

Funny, how my poems being rejected from an online publication made me feel like a real writer.

Excellent prompt by @a-macaron.bsky.social. I love seeing talented artists create beautiful things. For me personally, this turned out to be an exercise in accepting failure in my creative work. I am proud of myself, for not throwing away everything soon as I found fault in it. I finished it!

Just one of my drawings for this prompt. I will post better quality, once I have my scanner running.

This is great for beginners, and also for someone like me, who takes a long time to get things done.

I have created an easy #artchallenge prompt list that is suitable for total beginners!

I chose simple fall and Halloween objects. You are challenged to draw one each day in any medium you'd like!

Hopefully the hashtag #easyautumn will work! 🎃

If anyone would like to recommend a cool free theme for self hosted Wordpress blog, please tell me? I would like it to have as much freedom to choose as possible. Colors of every element, placement, graphics, type etc. I am trying Responsive, but it seems to have less creative control, than before?

For me it was important, that trans/nonbinary women would be safe to participate, and it says "self identifies as woman", so that is a yes. I might phrase it differently. But I think the thought is there? Anyway, looked like an interesting competition.

Working on some art. This was taken at a heavy angle, that is why the proportions are weird.
