Well worth a read to be aware of the impact of this tech on artists, but also the world at large.

Opinion: Is it worth it to use AI? Some things you should know
AI has shown us again and again how it aims to change our society. Is this technology really "here to stay" and what's it doing to us?

Hello, my precious! @dominikmayerart.bsky.social's book has finally arrived from last year's Kickstarter. I look forward to pouring over the pages of expressive art. It perfectly captures that dark, glittering mood I'm moving towards in my own art.
Gorgeous book! I shall treasure it. ❤️

Quickie look at my first Fourthwall samples, which are all quite nice! I’ve been testing out this option as a free shop alternative for artists after learning about its passive fee structure.

Also you can tag things, get color palettes, export your setup to a plain old set of image folders, look at videos…

Dear artists:
Afraid of death? It’s coming anyway. Afraid of failure? We all fail. A lot. Sometimes spectacularly. Afraid of these fascists? There are more of us cheering you on. Don’t stop creating. Not now. Make art. Piss them off. Create. With anger. With hope. Keep going.
