I still work with a limited color palette. The background color is created from a mix of Neocolor II crayons, blended on a
palette and applied with a brush. I don’t use Neocolor II entirely like gouache nor entirely like oil pastels — instead, I
combine all these technique #neocolor2 #kidlitart

Atalanta worships the goddess Artemis, symbolized by several animals — the quail, the swan, the bear, and the deer. Some of these motifs can be found in Atalanta’s costume. I also drew inspiration from certain outfits from Xena, Warrior Princess. #illustration #kidlitart #greekmyth #neocolor2

Here’s a second image on the same theme as before — the Greek myth
of #Atalanta. She’s a few years older now, as are her bear brothers and sisters.
They’re hunting together. #neocolor2 #carandacheneocolor #illustration #kidlitart

I couldn’t resist getting the full box of 84 Neocolor II crayons, but I only
ever use a handful of colors at a time. I like to mix them directly on the
paper, or sometimes on a palette beside me, using a brush.#illustration #kidlitart #neocolor2 #carandacheneocolor #atalante

I started with a brown underpainting made with Neocolor I, worked with a
brush and white spirit.
Neocolor I is completely waterproof, si the drawing underneath stays
intact when I add the Neocolor II layer. #greekmyth #neocolor2 #carandacheneocolor #illustration #atalante

Je vois que ça débat encore du mec qui a fait son visuel en IA pour parler de désinformation et une ligne de défense c'est : il y a une différence entre utiliser l'IA pour informer (ce qu'il a fait) et utiliser l'IA pour désinformer. Et bah je suis pas si sûre. 🧵

Atalanta was taken in by a mother bear, and now sleeps among her
brothers and sisters.
I work with Neocolor II crayons and smoothing with a papier towel or a water brush (felt tip is my favourite), using as little water as possible.

Here is my contribution to #kidlitpostcardday This piece is inspired by the story of the Greek mythological figure Atalanta. She was abandoned in the forest by her parents, who wanted a son, and was adopted by a female bear. #kidlitartpostcard #KidLitArtPostcard #KidLitArtPostcardDay

Godzilla: The Series surprisingly managed to correctly predict the advent of Gen AI in 1998, and had an appropriate lesson at the end of the episode.

Coincidentally, today I received two publishing contracts (small, but very cool). Both included anti-AI clauses that I had insisted upon. These (see below) are suggested by the Australian Society of Authors, but applicable anywhere. Use them. Protect your rights as a creator.

This video is absolutely fantastic, breaks down every single nonsense argument on GenAi made by GenAi advocates, and does so in such a succinct way! Plus its always a joy to watch people work on their craft! Watch asap because it’s spot on!

Yay! Inktober is over! Here is my last piece for this year. The theme today was fire. I'm not super happy with this illustration but whatever... I'm tired!

Also HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Inktober day 29. The prompt today was "massive"

I love drawing big gnarly trees.

Inktober day 28: Sparkle I put some real glitter on the cheeks but it doesn't show much on the picture.

Inktober day 27: Beast
I was obviously inspired by the Disney animated movie "Beauty and the Beast" but my version of the beast is more half bear/ half Mountain-goat 🙃
