Algorithms have failed artists, so once again I am appealing to the wealthy to go back to the practice of patronising artists so you can brag that your sicko is better than your rival’s sicko

Edinburgh after dark
Photography by Liam Wong of Edinburgh at night in the fog. Warm brown colors over the old architecture of Edinburgh's old town: The Royal Mile. Many street lamps have a soft glow to them beyond the fog. The streets are cobbled. Photography by Liam Wong of Edinburgh at night in the fog. An old staircase leading upwards.

One of the most important things we need to be educated on is how billionaires profit from prison slave labor.

So many corporations rely on it for their precious profits. The more people in prison (especially private prisons) the better for them.
Prisoners in the US are part of a hidden workforce linked to hundreds of popular food brands
The Associated Press found goods linked to prisoners wind up in the supply chains of everything from Frosted Flakes to Coca-Cola.

Sophie is wearing a flower crown with purple and white flowers. There are rounded silver filigree rays coming out of it with purple, black and white rhinestones. She has pale skin, green eyes, and long dark brown hair. Her makeup is done in a purple and black lace Catrina (Mexican decorative skull makeup), with the eye sockets, chin, forehead, and jawline all featuring purple and black lace drawings. She is wearing a high-collared black lace shirt and silver jewelry. She is outdoors standing in front of a wall of green leaves and small dried white flowers.

Sophie is wearing black and is fading into the black wicker chair she is sitting in. She is in front of a black fireplace and matching black wall. There is a golden candelabra, a cow skull, and a black empty picture frame behind her. Candles float above her head. Her eyes are almost closed and she is in colorful Catrina makeup (decorative skull makeup). She is wearing a bright rose and marigold flower crown with gold rays. Her pale hands are seen resting on the chair arms, and her dark hair fades into the background. She looks vaguely uninterested in the viewer.

Sophie is wearing a headpiece full of snow, evergreens, pinecones, red berries, and other wintery plants. Her long dark hair is curled at the ends. She has pale skin and green eyes. She is wearing a Christmas-themed Catrina (Mexican decorative skull makeup). On her forehead there is a gold Christmas star; holly and pine encircle her eye sockets and sit on her chin. Her eye sockets, nose, and cheekbone hollows are dark cool greens, and her cheekbones are lined in pearls. Her lips are in red lipstick beneath the teeth lines. She is wearing dangling pearl earrings and a white sweater with a thick, folded-over neckline. She is looking to the side in surprise, her hand hovering near her ear.

I have a number of nebulous ideas for pieces. They are complicated and require collaborations with people I don't know, yet. They will require money and time and space, things I don't quite have

It's frustrating and I'm wondering when I'll feel capable to take the next step forward. I've had the

My first necklace! My wire manipulation technique leaves much to be desired, but I'm excited to continue making jewelry and get better~

#artpost #jewelrymaking #crafting
There is a close up of a necklace on Sophie's neck. Her skin is pale, her hair is brown, and her shirt is grey. The delicate, large necklace is made of alternating pearls, clear, and pink glass beads, and several gold chains. There are three horizontal tiers in the necklace: the top tier is large bead clumps of pearls and pink and clear glass beads; the middle tier is all thin gold chain; and the third tier is made of small pink glass beads. There are three long vertical chains coming from the top tier that connect the three horizontal tiers. The vertical chains are made of pearls; pink and clear glass beads; and gold filigree pieces.

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.

This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

I've discounted all my calendars, even if January is basically over you can still use the calendar page as a postcard and have 11 other months to use the rest of it

Also I put a bunch of new painted wood banners up if you missed the chance last month
