Hello #portfolioday I'm Audre ('charamath') & I usually work as a vis-dev/concept artist (specializing in designing critters) for animation & games. Nowadays I'm working on my own stuff, including several new illustrated books & an indie game, while I wait for jobs to rebound. linktr.ee/charamath.
A blue pencil with white and pink ink stylized drawing of gengar, lampent, litwick and ghastly prancing across a smoky white background. a cropped shot of a digital illustration of glass carousel horses on a carousel. They're are frozen in poses of anguish as their brass poles are skewering them cruelly through their heads. Gold blood pours out and forms delicate tendrils of tack along their bodies pencil drawing of a flowing collage of creature design sketches. Done for the cover of my newest art book digital illustration of a chestnut colored deer-like creature wearing a simplified bridle and saddle. Callouts for the tack and saddle pad are included

Left the most relentlessly furious message I’ve ever thought of with my reps and the DNC. I’m so incredibly tired of nothing we say ever fucking mattering to the powers that ‘governs’ us.

Fuck this
No one wants war. No one.
Not the one in Palestine, Ukraine, Venezuela, or the other 100+ armed conflicts in the world
There is no democratic mandate for massmurder

Sanction weapons manufacturers, dump their stocks, arrest politicians

Show some fucking sense of justice and human decency

And my first contribution to 2026 was to send a friend of mine down a rabbit hole searching for a cooling anime waifu body pillow.

I made many of my friends watch Rare Exports, fed them bruschetta, and then beat them at Mysterium. Excellent wrap to an otherwise rather crappy year.

My friend Sama'a needs our help to keep her family warm and fed through the winter. Please give what you can.

The storms are stronger than our fragile home, and the cold is making my children sick.

While the world celebrates the New Year, we are only trying to survive.

Any kindness, no matter how small, means life to us.

God never forgets those who help others.

- Sama’a 🤍

tinyurl.com/SamaasFamily
Samaa’s family apartment in a bombed out building, a few floors up. There are no walls, as Storm Byron destroyed their flimsy plywood walls just a few weeks ago. The floor is concrete and sand, and two large concrete beams hold up the ceiling. Beyond the wide open space where walls once were, you can see nothing but more bombed-out and collapsed buildings, rubble and debris. A scene of a wide dirt road covered in tarps. It is lined with tents on one side, with a half dozen people appearing to be doing some work on them. On the other side are large piles of debris. Behind them are even bigger mounds of debris and the remains of what were once taller buildings, that are now just the skeletons or totally collapsed Baby Talia, 4 months old, lies on a beige mattress with a blue pillow under her head. She has olive skin and dark brown hair, and her big brown eyes are looking directly into the camera. She is wearing brown velour pajamas with a bear on the shirt, with the phrase “FUNNY DUDE” embroidered underneath in white. Three year old Julia stands on the edge of a pattered rug laid over the concrete floor, beige with brown print around the border. She is wearing a white turtleneck under a denim dress with embroidered flowers on the chest, a pale blue puffy coat with pink and white flowers, white stockings and pale pink tennis shoes. Her hair is pulled back and she is looking directly into the camera with big brown eyes. Behind her is a dark blue couch with red and yellow pillows, and a wall made of plywood and sheeting.

I wanted to make an enamel pin to honor Nezuko, who tragically passed away a week ago. With costs being over $15,000, sales would help relieve some of the costs.

This enamel pin shows the loyalty of the amazing Akitainu, with the most famous being Hachiko.

I spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs easier, even if it's just used in "very early ideation stages."

Zero said "yes." Most said it made their job harder.

I learnt a lot about concept artists. You should too!

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.

Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.

cinema_nasties 1d Al defenders are so embarrassing j.paulmonter 2h All you are saying is that you want to gatekeep creativity. That's not good. drachelbarr & 20h • •• Neuroscientist here... creativity is a process. A process. A FUCKING PROCESS. Not an output. Nobody is gatekeeping the process - Al simply invites you to skip to the end, to the output. Which, as mentioned, is not creativity. Nobody cares if the output is aesthetically pleasing, because the process, the act itself, the limitation of a single human mind and the resulting creations that capture that one single inimitable human experience... is what makes a creation worth paying attention
