It just so happens that I have a couple of "F*ck D*sney tee shirt designs in my TeePublic shop. Here's the second one, for all of us who are tired of the sequels, prequels, remakes, and general sameness of Disney's output. Also, screw Disney anyway, the toads.

I dreamt last night that I had lost an arm. It took me an hour to shake that awful feeling this morning.

Without any real disrespect meant, I am floored by the way other people waste your time when you're looking for work. I was rejected by an agent last week who had my samples for six months. I stopped myself before telling her I wouldn't have wanted to work with someone who would do that anyway.

This little doodle wound up looking like the title page of a Kurt Cobain Babies Golden Book.

Skechers' new AI ads get some sharp commentary. Hire Humans. AI has no soul.

Zoning out and testing unusual CSP brushes tonight. I fell in love with this square brush. It's so versatile. #illustration #clipstudiopaint
