I'm an engineer and part-time writer getting into art starting Sep 2024 for the first time in almost 20 years.

Anti-AI, pro-XP Pen, pro-Krita ... kind of, Krita's been a pain lately

Don't have much kept on my phone but here's another so I look more real.

I was convinced to give Chainsaw Man a shot. It was pretty good. Here's a quick (for me) illustration of Himeno.

Okay so Krita in Android kind of sucks compared to desktop

A big problem with drawing for me is that I'll decide to do something and then suddenly blank and be like, "Wait, what does a stained glass window even look like?"

Even over simple things. Like belts or hats.

It's been awhile, mostly because I find posting to social media to demoralizing. Not quitting, just more into making art than posting it.

Most recently completed this

Artists! TrueRef has some new things to test. First, our new timed gesture drawing tool and then our improved free gallery!

Both are still WIPs, but their base functions are there and I want to know what's good, bad or broken.

Links below! 🤍

I was seeing all this raving about OpenAI’s short story (which was about grief) and rather than reading people’s take on the story, I went right to the story itself to read it. Why not? I was certainly interested and the topic is sensitive to me.
