Another Cut paper. These are actually a selection of Birds my friend has found in her backyard. Metallic watercolor.

In payment, I asked my hosts what's an original piece of art they might like. They insisted none needed. "Humor me," I replied. "Monster high dragon and mermaid couple." Okay: Cut paper, metallic and regular watercolor background. 3 days. Haven't cut paper since Middle school. Lots of fun.

I cludged together three different build a bears to make a custom bipedal Cavilier King Charles Spaniel, for my Husband's birthday.

I won't argue semantics on what a collage is. It takes, time, skill and effort to do what you do.
I am capable of recognizing that. I've used Photoshop for over 25 years. Learned in highschool.
I ask because Reddit, people using chatgpt get things that look similar. Below is a found generated image.

Yes, I know that the photos are yours. But this isn't a photograph that you took. I'm just curious where it came from.

Contagious idea time!

"Skin niks kin ni kski N"

Without context, words skin meaning like hydrophobic fat. Lost on their way to human judged usefulness.

Hacked human cognitive bias attributed agency to anything that used words like they did.

Machine learning made words feel.
They could feel angry

I mean, being a non-ai using artist is great.

My own son tried to steal the void from me. (What he named the snow leopard build a bear that I boiled for an hour into a Jaguar.)
Practiced thread sculpting on hands, feet, face.

Why yes...I am the Urse with the Purse. Superman bear was damaged during restoration with no butt tag and poor fur quality. So I made him into a zippered purse lined with himself rather than trashing. The 1990's called, they want their bag made of random things back.

I feel like there's a story behind the tea time bear having sooooo many hearts. #buildabear #plushie #restoration

Made a bipedal lion king out of a quadruped build a bear lion king only needing one unoriginal piece of fabric for the belly.

I transformed a lion king build a bear into a bipedal. Two legs good, 4 legs bad! #buildabear #custommod #plushie

I made a bathrobe for my Star Bear. I used a damaged hello kitty bathrobe to pull a pattern from that I purchased for 1.80. Badly sewn seams were unraveling. Repaired now.
Mine has hidden seams and hem stitching. Completely hand sewn. Because sometimes a machine shouldn't do all the stabbing.
