As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back
You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

Underrated point of discussion with the AI + social media uproar is giving thanks to patrons of the arts, especially non-artists, who are willing to put in the effort to support artists at a time when it has never been easier or more normalized to do the opposite.

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

Every artist, get more self indulgent NOW! Draw your ships kissing, draw your blorbos, draw that idea you’ve been putting off (you’re good enough to do it!!!), redraw that old art, draw yourself wearing a cool outfit, draw a better world- just draw!!!

I've consulted with the ancient spirits, and they told me to tell you: damn you're cool. You're so fucking cool. Oh wow, much beautiful. So sexy. So majestic and talented. Self-doubt and imposter syndrome are lying losers jealous of your best efforts. They're not invited to the party like you are.

Kill the artist in your mind that gets so anxious about “ not having a consistent style.” I try to draw so many wildly different subjects in as many different ways as I can, and I think being able to grasp at variety is only a benefit to your craft, especially going forward.

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.
