The pride bats are back! I thought it’d be nice to regroup them into a matching poster. The border on the moths one was changed to a rainbow gradient and some colours were tweaked for better readability/printing. Original posts: Pride moths LGBATs 1 & 2

🗣Calling all LGBTQ+ illustrators, storytellers, photographers, videographers, writers, 3D artists, and other creatives!

Shutterstock is on a mission to change how our community is represented in the media. 🏳️‍🌈 You may remember that poll we sent around, where we asked you how you want to be authentically represented. You said you wanted more depictions of family events, the workplace, and sports. You asked for diversity across different age groups and body types, including trans and non-binary bodies. You want to see content that reflects reality and our every day lives, that doesn’t just rainbow-wash everything.

Based on your feedback, Shutterstock is partnering with us to give grants to LGBTQ+ artists so that our community can keep creating the content we actually want to see, that shows our authentic lives. Apply for their #ItGetsBetter Create Fund grant here or at https://shutr.bz/3hZsvfn!

This month’s patreon tutorial is about artistic improvement! I talk about the different phases of artistic growth and lay out a roadmap for building your skills. It’s a great resource for those of you who want to be a better artist, but aren’t sure what to focus on right now. 

You can get it through my Patreon for as little as $5! And for $10 a month, you also get access to 32 other tutorials, many of which are referenced in the roadmap. Find it here: https://www.patreon.com/loish

Samhain Traditions

✨ Go for a meditative nature walk. Observe colors, aromas, sounds, and sensations. Contemplate the circle of life and death as crucial parts of nature.

✨ Create a Samhain altar. Incorporate things like skulls, skeletons, ghosts, pumpkins, squash and gourds, nuts and berries, dried leaves and acorns,/‘d cider.

✨ Have a ceremony with food. Invite your friends and family for fruit, veggies, game, dark bread, and apple cider. Light candles around the table while dining.

✨ Create an altar for ancestors. Set up photos of deceased family members, heirlooms, mementos, and votive candles. Speak their names and offer them well wishes. Thank them for their lineage.

✨ Guide spirits. Place a white seven-day candle in the window to guide the dead to the spirit world. Speak a chant of guidance.

✨ Reflect on your life since last Samhain. Consider personal growth and your accomplishments, travels, challenges, adventures, and learnings.

✨ Create bonfire magick. Write down things to release and burn them in a bonfire or even a small cauldron outside. Dance around the fire and thank the universe for its services.

✨ Divine invocations. Call upon the powers that be in nature. Invite them to aid you in your remembrance of the dead and understanding of life, death, and rebirth.

✨ Community connections. Join a group ritual. Exchange ideas, information, and celebration experiences.

A question I get a lot is: how do I come up with ideas for my paintings? I tackled this topic in my latest tutorial, which runs you through my process for creating thumbnails, but also talks about how to make use of fleeting moments of inspiration, the importance of an artistic routine, and how to find an inspiring reference image. It’s one of my personal favorites! Find it over at my patreon for just $5 alongside 22 (!!) other tutorials: patreon.com/loish
