I was headed to a life drawing gig in Toronto. Me and an artist heading to the session held the elevator for a man who's arms were full. He was very grateful, and got off before us.

'I think that was Guillermo Del Toro?'
'Yeah, I think that *was* Guillermo Del Toro.'

It was, in fact, GdT.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Was talking with a fellow nature friend about Cedar Waxwings, remembered making this guy in 2024! I should revisit unappreciated songbird themes for gryphs.

Polymer Clay miniature.

I feel this way about "van life" and "tiny houses."

Capitalism trying to transform the broken promises made to Millennials and younger into hip, fun lifestyles, instead of acknowledging *their* parents were homeowners at 25 and something terrible has changed that trajectory.

I think the way for artists to combat ai slop in 2026 is to lean hard into showing process & WIP. No ai user is going to generate days or weeks of work in progress images & post them because they want to entirely slip the work part.

Embrace the process & let everyone see it.

Are you 🫵 a twitter refugee? Are you 🫵 an OC artist? Unsure how to switch over to bsky?

Some quickfire tips from a bsky user who didn't use it much when I first joined, and then started using it properly about a year ago!

I love the tradition of dancing around the garden during the full moon and sprinkling eggnog on the earth to attract the yule worms. I love watching them poke their heads out of the ground, wearing tiny hats made from cocoons. I love seeing them sway as I sing them carols.
