If you haven't given feedback yet, please do. The window is small. The terms on adult content are vague enough to put so many artists at risk of arbitrary interpretation. They conflate fictional situations with real-life abuse. Ask them to revise and clarify.

Dieselbrain @dieselbrain.bsky.social · Aug 14

the usual vagueness is present here that is usually a bad sign to come for adult content.

Hey lovelies, I found a few extra wolf shirts left over from the bundle Dory and I dropped last summer, I just threw them in my etsy shop. If you missed out on that run, this is your chance to snag one! There are only four, and all in Ed purple

I'm in a bit of a mood, making vent art. This piece drops on Tuesday - my bloody cleaver mirror. In the sketch phase, I played around with a more passive drip and a much more violent point-of-impact spray on the blade, inspired by bloody katanas. Which do you prefer?

I went in a really different direction for this show - I handcut all these pieces with a scroll saw and fit them together to create my shiny tiger mirror for the Easy Tiger show. I'm excited to try more with these new materials&techniques. Whatcha think?

All these photos do is convince me people are trying to shut us up by saying Bigfoots are just bears

Amazing Digital Carcass @amagire.bsky.social · Jan 20

is it time to bust out my "bigfoot is bears" photo collection again? if your mental image of a bear is a thick-furred, fat glossy male bear in autumn, you're probably not prepared for how weird their proportions can look in spring, or when walking upright, like they frequently do.

It's sequin film, the sheeting they punch the little round ones out of. I just cut it into different shapes than circles 🖤

Sunfish have nutritional value of rice cakes & no natural predators, they just drift around getting bigger&bigger. A marine biologist called them "useless but unstoppable" (iconic) - which I have titled this piece, available everydayoriginal.com/product/usel...

Stede as a mermaid, leaping out of the ocean at sunset. He's backlit and throwing his head back, so his hair is trailing water in a great arc above his head, droplets sparkling in the sunlight. He's got an orange tail and the overall color theme is pink and orange.
