consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

New prints have been added 🔋bender is here!
Art has been my full-time job, but the platforms I relied on changed their payouts this year and last. I'm working through some financial challenges, and any support with prints, commissions, Ko-Fi, even just sharing my work, means a lot right now.

i feel so bad for artists who now have to deal with accusations that their work is ai
Its so demeaning to the life of work they put into their art, and it must suck to have to argue that your work is in fact your own.
If you can draw, that's really cool, I think you are great.
