Animation is a caricature of life, not a lesser imitation of it. Remaking cartoons in live-action, or giving the characters realistic proportions, hairs, warts, etc., robs them of the stylized exaggeration that made them appealing in the first place.

I find it so egregious that Pinterest uses imagery on its site to train GenAi models. Imagery they do not own, and for the most part, is uploaded by third party users without the consent of creators.

GenAi industries depend on exploitation to function and it’s gross

💫Happy International Women’s Day ✨

Some of my female deity work to honor Diana & Persephone

Altar prayer card for the goddess Diana. A rectangular card has a black border with parts of the Orphic hymn for Diana surrounding it as a border in white text. In the bottom right are twin arrows over a crescent moon representing her and Apollo. In the bottom left and top right are white outlined 8 point stars. Inside the border is a marble shockwave black and grey pattern with white outlining that forms an arch at the top with lining to look like columns on both sides. In the middle is a stag skull with painted antlers of a diamond and star pattern. Behind the skull are smaller 8 point stars and cloud ripples. Above the skull is a scraggly branch of queen Anne’s lace with small dots above. In the top corners are two constellations for Sirius as her hunting dogs and Roman numerals for 13 and 8 for the date of the Nemoralia festival.

Black and white illustration representing Persephone during the autumn equinox. A frame surrounds the whole thing split in half in black and white. The middle horizontal section is torn in half like a piece of paper. In the bottom right corner are wispy swirling smoke lines going towards the centre with 3 bats flying from right to left. In the bottom left is the symbol for Persephone. In the middle are two pomegranates one whole and one cut in half. In the top half on a black background is a bee in reference to Persephone’s name as “honeyed one” on a circular medallion with narcissus flowers dropping petals around it. In the top left is the Greek word for Persephone.

aemhyr + the shadowfell ﹖
[ #oc #art ]

Digitally drawn bust piece of my OC Aemhyr, a Shadar-Kai elf. Both of his claw-like hands with darkened fingertips are cradling his face. He has cloudy eyes and jet black hair seemingly wet, hugging his body. The majority of his body is shadowed, except for his face and hands.

Digitally drawn landscape featuring several mountain peaks progressively fading into the distance. The moon shines above while darkened clouds cover the majority of the sky. There's a creak passing through the mountains as well, slightly reflecting the moon's light.
