Hi! New to BLUESKY and hoping to connect with other artists like me! I love character design and illustration (digitally) and here and there I dabble with collage, watercolor, writing, etc. I love sharing my art with others!

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor.
"I can't afford a visual artist"
So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them?
Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.

Looking back over the year, I am really proud of the images I made with my Unhaunters characters. Building out a creepy world with these tweenage city kids has been fun.
I have a comic in mind for them, but focusing on single illustrations was freeing.
