Really really debating if I should offer holiday commissions this year. I loooove when I get to work on gifts with clients (I often get sent photos of framed comms at the end 😭🫶) but the pressure is high and the temptation to just close up shop for the tailend of 2025 is strong...

I've started a new (written) DnD campaign and despite having barely started, I'm already so unwell about it.
Here's our /extremely normal/ party...hence the hashtag for them: #TheCuriosities

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.
Rude Rude or impolite, including crude language and disrespectful comments, without constructive purpose. Highlighted Off, darkened Warn, and darkened Hide buttons.

My husband was without a job for all of 2024 (like 14 months in total) and it was the hardest thing I ever had to deal with as a freelancer.

2025 has been rough so far for gigs but with him working again we are still safe and making ends meet.

Succeeding 'alone' is exceedingly rare.

Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.
samanthamash.bsky.social Samantha Mash @samanthamash.bsky.social · 9d
When people hear that I'm returning to part time work they often ask "are things not going well with your art?"

The problem really is things are going well, but the world is so unstable that I long for some consistency and income that I don't have to pay quarterly taxes on

Thank you for all the kind words and well-wishes!!!
It always feels a bit odd to get on a box and announce birthdays but then again I'm always glad when I get a reminder that it is someone else's so...

Anyway! Cheers to all of you < 3

Hi #PortfolioDay ✨

I'm Jonah, an illustrator based in Scotland. My forte is all things fantasy and painterly semi-realism!

In the future I'd love to branch out from TTRPGs into more diverse media like visual novels and book illustration!

Digital fantasy illustration that shows a young rider mounted on an unusual creature. The creature resembles some sort of jungle cat but has a long body with six limbs instead of four. It's neck is long and bent and it's face while feline has a snout similar to a tapir's. The rider is dressed in red clothing, with a blue hat and goggles and is looking out over the landscape. The creature is perched climbing over rocks and trees above a waterfall. Behind them is a river, lush forests and ruins. Two massive towers loom in the distance against blue skies. A collage of illustrations showing full body renderings of the Vox Machina characters from Critical Role season 3. Two illustrations of the artist's oc: 1: A purple, horned person sits on a green couch and stares at the viewer in an alluring and threatening way. They are holding a curved dagger that drips with blood. Two panels left and right show the snarling snouts of wolves. 2: digital illustration: Pictured is a knight in full armour, bar helmet. their hair is long and dark and they have curling horns on their head. They face away from the viewer, looking into a stylized nightsky with a crescent moon. The frame of the image contains thorned rose bramble, parrying daggers and an illustration in each corner: a weeping skull on the left and a armoured gauntlet holding a rose on the right. An illustration from D&Ds Twenty-Sided Tavern showing a wizard's study, illuminated in many colourful lights. A staircase leads up to a second floor, covered in books.

bday gift for @galacticjonah.bsky.social featuring his inspirational Ophir 🎉 #thecuriosities

#art #oc #digitalart #dnd #dndart #ttrpg
digital illustration of a muscular character showing an arm with a sleeve rolled up like on the "We Can Do It!" poster. the character has long voluminous hair tied into a very loose ponytail at the end, a wild smile with sharp teeth, and beast-like eyes. the text above them says "Let's Catch Some Moths", on the sides there is "Nov 2 2025", and at the bottom "Saint Ophir" is written. the drawing is black linework on a cream background, and the layout is meant to remind tshirt prints.

ANYWAY. MCM was largely a blast. Every year it means more to be surrounded by artists and creatives from all kinds of backgrounds and countries and I'm so grateful for every lovely conversation and new connection!

Thank you to everyone who made the effort to stop at my table 🫶

Most unfun interaction at MCM: fellow artist coming to my table before opening and talking to me and a friend at length just to end a swerve into AI topic with "I only use chatGPT for -shit you really don't need chatgpt for-"

The convo ended real quick after that.

So...is Tiktok actually worth it for artists? Mind you I make 0 video content and don't plan on changing that bcs I am too busy and have nothing worth recording anyway.

But I see a lot of static image galleries that I personally enjoy so I'm wondering??

(i know the comments can be hell...)
