I'm Ehren, an artist who loves digital illustration and painting in acrylic. My subjects range from science and nature to fantasy and science fiction. Always brightly colored and highly saturated.

I may not be able to draw right now, but at least I can sit and gather references for when I can, again!

Just 2 more weeks in this sling.

SO close, yet so far.

I enjoy a good pseudoscorpion!

They're just little guys.

I heard most Americans have no idea who Terry Fox was, which seems wild to me, as a Canadian.

Loving the burst of pseudoscorpion posts! Gave this grabby guy some bristles and a bit more attitude 😈 (remember in reality they’re like sesame seeds with attitude) #arachtober

Wait, no... I'm going to move to Germany? My dad's side is descended from Irish immigrants, and my mom's side is from Germans.

I wish Canada could get on board with UBI, then I could just go full artist.

Jon Munitz @jonmunitz.bsky.social · Jul 24

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached.

They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others.

Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further.

#UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.

OK, gonna move to Ireland.

Mike Sowden @mikeachim.bsky.social · 2d

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Haus of Decline @hausofdecline.bsky.social · Apr 28

A huge group of people are in a giant hole in the middle of a rolling field. There is a large sign with an arrow pointing to the hole that says "HOLE." Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look! Someone made a new hole!" The mass clamours out of the old hole and makes a bee-line toward the new hole. It's chaos. One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.
