As ever, watching Dan apply every little detail to every piece he makes is incredible and it feels like an event in how art like this is able to speak to and connect with the viewer.

A really fascinating article by Ewan Morrison which really asks the difficult question that we're facing right now in our culture...

I will never understand people who put their name on #AI_images and lie and call it their "art", when with a lot of hard work they can create real art as this woman does. #AI_Is_Bad_For_Humans.

It's beyond disgusting that this is how a site that allows products to be sold has such little value for artists that they would go through something made in generative AI.

The damage that AI does is something that so many of the enthusiasts behind this don't seem to really grasp. Gaining some large profit as far more important than the harm that AI does for everyone.
parismarx.com Paris Marx @parismarx.com · Jul 5
Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools.

Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

Ahh #PortfolioDay
I'm just a Dan on the Canadian Prairies scratching away with my pens when not trapped in the dayjob dimension. I work on my own personal projects/art journey that seems to go into the weird, strange and surreal. I work in pen only..with no sketches..I just go for it.
Pen drawing with two feminine faces with long tongues licking an ice cream like structure made up of small skull like faces, each if their bodies flowing into the twisted biomechanical shapes that fill the page while a large stone like face stares out from the background Pen drawing of an androgynous face holding up a hand surrounded by energy staring through a portal surrounded by arcane symbols looking into a world of dead trees with strange bird like creatures and twisted organic shapes with strange humanoid beings surrounding the portal Pen drawing of a twisted dreamscape with a feminine form with a tree emerging from her mouth while surrounded by large tusk like bones rising into the sky while a weird rabbit skulled like creature sits in the lower right and a woman walks towards it in the lower left in landscape of twisted organic materia Pen drawing of a small grey alien being with a big head surrounded by a twisted fusion of technology and cancerous organic shapes

Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm Hampus, Swedish pulp artist. I paint book covers, promotional art, original characters, portraits, pinups and comics. Commission info below!

Portfolio: cara.app/hampus
A digital, pulp-style painting resembling a mystery book cover. It features two women, one dressed in a dark suit and wearing glasses, aiming a bright flashlight off to the side, another wearing a deep purple tunic and orange turban hijab and holding a camera. In the background, enclosed in the mysterious shape of a person, we see a gloomy blue cityscape, with bright green lanterns hanging from twisted trees. A digital painting in the style of an old pulp detective cover, featuring a beautiful blonde femme fatale superimposed in a blue void above a trenchcoat-wearing detective. The detective is walking past an old lamp post, smoking a cigarette, and the smoke rises to blend with the white fur coat of the lady. A digital painting of a female Aasimar Hunter, wearing a metallic-blue mythril armour and gladiator-style skirt and plated boots. She is holding a great sword in one hand, and a stream of magic circles her other hand. Her hair is silvery white, and there is a halo behind her head. Behind her, a gryphon springs into action, wings spread. A digital painting of an undead woman in a red, flowing dress. She is standing on top of some stairs outside, her head framed by a pale blue moon, and reaching her bony hand toward the viewer.
