“One notable MIT study found that 95 percent of companies that integrated AI saw zero meaningful growth in revenue. For coding tasks, one of AI’s most widely hyped applications, another study showed that programmers who used AI coding tools actually became slower at their jobs.”

Tax Clients, take note!

The IRS has, historically, used the postmark date to determine the date of paper filings. www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc...

Now that the USPS is changing the postmark date to the date of processing, a tax document mailed *the day that it's due* will no longer be filed on time.

Varying line widths will make even your colored work stand out. :) Even just putting a slightly thicker outline around your characters to differentiate them from the background.
Share your knowledge if/when you can. Teaching other people how to do what you do doesn’t lessen your art - it just means more and better art for everyone.

I appreciate when people are willing to tell me about their brushes, how they study, etc… I want to put that back out into the world.

This, a million times over. Please tell people when you like their work. Creatives can go a very long time without any outside input at all, positive or otherwise, so a gesture of appreciation often makes all the difference in the world.
Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.
