Why yes I grew up on Lisa Frank, why do you ask?

Practice with daily prompt, Starry Gazer. This took a few days (and an art show in the middle) but I’m much happier with the work and the story telling. #procreate

The Comics Devices Library is a free online educational resource that catalogues and describes all of the visual-literary devices used in comics. comicsdevices.com

I've been doing the research for this library since 2020. It launched to the public in October 2023.
More devices on the way!

Practice with daily prompts. Moonlight Perch. I’m not thrilled with the tree, but I’m getting closer and enjoying these little prompt sessions. #procreate

My name is Allen or Chili. I doodle whimsical fantasy characters and illustrations. I also try encourage young artists as an Art Para in a K-5 classroom in SE Kansas

The plushies I designs based on my baby dragon art. This was before I devoted the IP. Seems I did things a little backwards… 😅

Hello #kidlitchat! I’m a fantasy artist from the US who’s now dipping my toe into the kids illustration world by working on my first book. I’m so very excited to be on this journey and I’m learning so much! Thank you to all the amazing illustrators out there!
TOPIC: Hey, everyone--it's been a good year for #kidlitchat here on Bluesky, and the community is growing! Let's push some tables together, grab a slice of pie, pull up a chair and introduce (or re-introduce) ourselves.

Two Kipo writers back at Dreamworks to help deliver a petition (with 60k signatures!) demanding a fair contract for animation artists & workers. Oh, and the rest of @animationguild is here too. #StandWithAnimation #unionstrong

I’m SO doing this!
Just under 2wks away from the return of the ever popular #CRAZIESDayParade on Nov 21! No follows necessary, simply inflate your OC’s as hilarious parade balloons and post with hashtag! All art MUST be SFW (i.e., All Ages), no exceptions! Hope to see you there! @lollipopcomics.bsky.social

These steps can be used for fantasy art and illustration as well! Share away!
Hello to all the new (or returning) #kidlit & #kidlitart folks!

We're working to try to get the community more active, but also, it helps if everyone tries a bit to interact with one another! BlueSky likes interactions - you have to say something to get something back!

Here's some tips to help:

Admittedly I’m still not feeling much like creating anything new, but I do still have a lot of #art I can share, so if you need a #rest, just a short #brainbreak and a moment of #peace, I hope you see this in your feed. Take care of yourself, you deserve #selfcare too. #dragons #fantasyart 🌌🦋💚

I teach critical writing for the art department at The City College of New York. The following is a short thread full of words from people who are smarter than me about the vital role that artists play in society generally, and doubly so in the face of authoritarian regimes.

Howdy #kidlitartpostcard 💌

I have been an artist for 20+ years but I’m new to this world! This is such a beautiful community filled to the brim with stellar art. I’m Carla and I’m currently exploring more styles while #illustrating my own picture book.

For my armor painting friends!
Time for another reference dump!

This zip file contains 2,566 photos (6.58 GB) from the Metropolitan Museum of Art arms and armor collection. I tried to focus on the types of details you don't see in most available reference, like hinges and fasteners.

Enjoy!
