Hey just a heads-up, I changed my handle to @nuclearnarwhal.bsky.social from @icestarcometh.bsky.social because I didn't like my nickname being "Ice".

Did it a day ago, but silly me forgot to let anyone know!

The old handle is still out there. I just don't have plans to put anything on it.

Your periodic reminder that "fancy fonts" on places like Bluesky are unicode & are a nightmare for screen reader users. DON'T use for your name

Not only that, good lucky having anyone search for you in the search bar by name.

first you draw a circle

Filigree is fun! No, really, I mean it. It's one of those detail things you can just sorta zone out to with music. Plus, the details can be anything you want.

Now back I go to the art mines! I left some good men in there.

Just got a copy of a book I did the cover for! Thank you @sgwolfeauthor.bsky.social

Anyways, I'm going to be squeeing in my corner if you need to find me.

what could possibly go wrong

I made this image to show someone how bleed and margins work. Worked great! Now I want to write about the magic of sea cows.

BTW, if you're someone who works with print design, how do you explain margins and bleeds?

This is, technically, a sandwich.

resolved: people who insist that all social media sites must be places where users are constantly encountering and arguing with people over fundamental disagreement do so because their actual, real lives are echo chambers where they do not encounter any meaningful difference from day-to-day.

Perfect, no notes.

I've been told by interested parties to post my art. This might also be an attempt to guide said party away from a certain site.

For my first offering, terrible jokes. The good art will arrive exactly when it means to.
