Artist & witchy & kinda gay ✨
I really liked my #ootd on Monday so I used it for a little sketch. I’m craving a new hair color, too 🥲

I keep forgetting about this app but my x is a dumpster fire rn…

Also I got a bunch of new (and old) art things so maybe a little more art in the foreseeable future?

How do people stay motivated with all this AI bullshit? Every time I pick up the thought of drawing, it ends up in „nobody is going to see it and there are people out there making $$ with stolen art anyway“

That this article about artists desperately downloading a tool to protect their labour from being stolen by corporate AIs is illustrated using corporate AIs that steals artists' labour is a fine example of the current state of art, media, and tech.

Make no mistake, there is a race by tech companies to normalize use of gen AI as fast as possible across creative fields, before sensibility within law can coalesce.

So fight back: reject using it in your workplace; inform friends sharing funny AI image memes; and mock its use to ardent backers.

I missed #PortfolioDay but I hope you will stop to say hi anyway!

I'm Nic, a queer white tattooer in Toronto. I draw a lot of art of my TTRPG characters, but mostly I tattoo!

I wonder, Wacom, who is going to buy your tablets when we've all lost our art jobs because companies would rather use shitty ai images than hire humans?

they've already deleted the tweet and changed their header, but here's some screenshots of wacom trying to sell their Product For Artists with AI-generated art 🙃 buy a huion or an xp-pen. they're great brands. can confirm my xp-pen driver also doesn't crash daily like wacom's used to lol

I‘m not even able to take a halfway decent photo when I finally draw something. I feel like a total failure 🥲

Would anyone be interested in a commission like this for $120? I really need to get groceries, I'm running really low on them.

My own comic project! It has been my dream for many years now, but it is getting increasingly hard to even tinker around with it in my free time, as the hustle just got so exhausting over the last couple of years. 🥲

Hey! Consider buying art from independent artists! It helps us through the slower upcoming months and who doesn't like receiving cute artwork by mail?!
Hearing from Art Friends this year that their holiday art sales are pretty low -- maybe in part the economy, but I'm also guessing it's how AI has fucked some shit up. As such, if you can spend money on real art by humans this holiday, please do.
