Anxiety is very stupid. What do you mean I can't leave the house or I'll get hit by a literal bus on my doorstep? Fake news, brain but I'll believe you just in case.

Spring is waking up, and I am too. I haven't wanted to do any painting in a long time, but today, I did it. 💖

Today was a "talking about myself and smashing down those imposter syndrome feelings" kind of morning on a podcast recording.

Went to see Hadestown. Fell in love with the West End and also this particular ceiling.

Want to read about that time I went looking for fossils and dressed as a pirate? Oh and I talk about Jim Carey and Animal Crossing. And chuck rocks as hard as I can at the ground. It's a really good read I promise.

I'm very lucky to essentially sit in pretty places and have a lovely peaceful time as a job. Anyone have any pretty perch suggestions of where I must go to next?

For anyone wondering - Most of the only good photos of me in my art bios were taken by @dan-davison.com and he's pretty great so go say hi to him and tell him your favourite animal fact.

During winter, I often don't feel very creative. Fellow artists - Don't beat yourself up during a creative block, or force it. Personally, I've been using the time to catch up on life admin. Be kind to yourself. You're not a machine. #artist #art #life

When I was 25 I was sad I had not written The Great American Novel. At 55, I realize there's no Great American Novel, there are merely the stories I'm the best person to tell. Don't worry about how others see greatness. Work on being the best version of who you are and what you can do in the world.

Hey Adventures, I thought I'd wander out my little tower and explore this new land called Bluesky!

Lets see where this quest takes us and what new friends we'll find!

Here's the way I frame it:

Fanart is like using a recipe or box mix that's already been established to make a cake.

Gen AI is like someone walked up to your finished cake, took a slice without asking, and created a whole new "cake" with your slices + multiple other pre-made cake slices.
