Important PSA: I hope you never see other artists as competition. Please take their success as proof that you can also succeed here.

I'm a firm believer that artists you mentor or give advice to are not competition, but rather a new addition to your network! I'm always here to support your journey ✨
Share your knowledge if/when you can. Teaching other people how to do what you do doesn’t lessen your art - it just means more and better art for everyone.
I appreciate when people are willing to tell me about their brushes, how they study, etc… I want to put that back out into the world.

My fiance ordered a gym membership for the two of us (in my name so I can primarily use it) and we never got a confirmation email, then my dad ordered me a cricut with the 2 year extended warranty and some extra craft materials and somehow duplicates of all the items were ordered - am I cursed?!?!

Tried coated marker paper today and I do not understand what the hype was around this stuff in the 2010s copic phase. Copics are streaky, pool everywhere, don't blend or layer well at all on the glossy surface the coating creates. 🤨 The color payoff is atrocious! Gonna stick to my Strathmore paper.

Don't mention NSFW and don't mention the word commission as well, to be safe.
Sharing to help many. Keep going guys and be careful.

Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

I have thousands of photos. Trace them. Mash them together like Frankenstein. Collage. Experiment with mixed media. This is why I make and share stock photos for artists. You can learn from what's REAL and make it YOUR OWN instead of having something done for you that isn't your own vision.
Using ai for reference is one way to legitimise it but also will make you worse in time. If you care about the art you make you should care about what influences it and where your ideas come from. The world is massive with tens of thousands of years of art and culture and history you can learn about
PSA if you care about your support going to art that is influenced by AI

I really hate to have to do this but i just had a deer jump in front of my work van (and everday car) on the highway and total the bumper/fender and I need to open some emergency commissions to help cover the cost of repair and help me stay afloat while it's in the shop.

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.
