The Devil Wears Prada 2 teaser dropped yesterday and I'm excited 😍👠

[ #willmarstudios #thedevilwearsprada #artsky #mixedmedia #collage ]
A collage of an individual's torso wearing a black and white suit and tie with the bottom of the suit adorned in shredded complementary colored paper. A devils tail and horn give the illusion that the headless individual is the devil and they are standing in front of a backdrop of Paris with the phrase "New Rule, Make Me."

Hi Folks!

I'm Key! I'm a trans man erotic artist in the US. I draw a lot of queer art. Sometimes it's horny. Sometimes it's just pretty. Sometimes I do body horror. I aspire to depict bodies of all walks of life.

I also have commissions open:

Authors, Beware! There's a firm called "ClaimsHero" doing aggressive social media outreach claiming to
"help" you file to get $ in the Anthropic class action. In fact, it's a bait-and-switch, they are luring authors to sign up with them, then OPTING THEM OUT of the class action so they'll get zilch.

There's some discourse happening on Threads about authors gatekeeping their publishing journey information. (yeah I know.) Sharing information is helpful, but not required, & not available to everyone. So I've made a questionnaire about the query & publishing journey. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
Query Letter and Publishing Journey Questionnaire
Hello! I have been too involved in the "publishing journey gatekeeping" conversation on Threads (iykyk) and I understand writers' desire to see how other people did it so they can try to guess/predict...

some kind of captain/steward for roaldamundsen on tumblr #artpost #comms #theterror
A digital drawing of Gibson and Hickey from AMC's The Terror. Hickey sits in a green leather chair dressed in a captain's uniform while Gibson sits at his side on the floor, legs tucked underneath him. Gibson holds a teapot and teacup in his lap and Hickey looks on at him sappily while he plays with a curl of Gibson's hair.

"Girls are caterpillars while they live in the world, to be finally butterflies when the summer comes; but in the meantime there are grubs and larvae, don't you see - each with their peculiar propensities, necessities and structure." - excerpt from 'Carmilla' by Sheridan Le Fanu
digital illustration by Abigail Larson depicting a hand with a lace web pattern glove. The hand has sharp fingernails dripping a tiny amount of blood. A black butterfly is perched on the hand.

What do you mean I have to draw my OC's by myself if I want to see their art? That's so unfair 😔

one of my most popular designs
a black and white typography edit. there is white text that reads "don't want to see trans people? pluck out your eyes." in the middle of the design is a hand holding a scorpion by the tail. between the scorpion's claws is a human eyeball. the entire image is edited to look photocopied.

Everybody’s mad at Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson — but here’s what really happened.

She didn’t block food assistance; she issued a short pause so another court could review before billions of dollars were released without oversight.
