this green honeycreeper exhibits a genetic mutation known as bilateral gynandromorphism, where one half of the body is male and one half is female. the bird was spotted in the wild in new zealand; researchers suspect the bird is not able to reproduce, but appears to be in good health. they are the second known example of a bilateral gynandromorph green honeycreeper; the last was recorded over 100 years ago.
hi hello i've been in the process of moving all my art stuff to ko-fi, my commissions are already open and i'll be starting my own shop!! please follow me on there if you'd like and keep an eye out for my first lil sticker drop coming very soon 👀
i've always wanted to have my own shop eventually and i'm frankly fed up with all the print on demand websites so i'm excited to do it all my damn self even if i have to deal with two of my greatest enemies in this life: printers and the post office
Aw man sorry about all the stupid hate ur getting. I was the one that reblogged ur art and tagged a bigger blog. Sorry about all the hate I just wanted to show people ur cool ass art. Anyway hopefully you know that most people like ur art alot and there's just a few very loud wrong people that are being rude. I love ur birds and arts they're very cool :)
oh no, you don’t have to apologize!! the nice comments have greatly outweighed the negativity, thank you so much for the kind words and for sharing 💙
Okay, now I'm convinced that it wasn't an AI. Seeing how you used a photo to draw this clears up a lot of misunderstanding.
Thank you for posting clarifications and video of the process. I'm sorry for assuming you used AI, I didn't mean to offend you like that. I hope that other people like me will see your post and realize that we were wrong
Hey, I sent you the ask earlier today. I did actually read your reply and wanted to thank you for educating me/us. I was pretty amazed at your process video. Sorry for what I said, I tried to speak from a place of concern and not hate, but I'm not sure that came through at all. That's on me and I'm sorry.
I guess I just wanted to let you know you weren't screaming into a void, even though that doesn't really make up for what I said. Your realistic art is really pretty amazing, and I hope you continue to get more popular and blow up like your last post did.
thank you, apology accepted! i also hate what AI is doing to the community and understand being a little hypervigilant about it, i just hope this serves as an example that we should really be sure before making assumptions and accusations that could hurt a legitimate artist
There's nothing wrong with using AI but please stop lying about it. It hurts the community as a whole, and if you get publicly called out for this, nobody is going to buy your other prints (which are really cute, when they're your actual work and not AI).
I don't know if you're doing this bc you just really need the money, but I'm genuinely afraid for you when people find out you're lying about some of your pieces using AI. You make really cute art, just build on that! Don't throw away your real talent on this BS.
i promise i’m not lying about anything and agree with you about AI! please see this post for further clarification and a process video :)
hi so my last post is getting a lot more attention than i’m used to and i just wanted to clear up that it very much is not AI!!!
here’s my timelapse from procreate: i used a photo i took as a reference, traced for proportions (i might get dragged for this too but it was my photo and i was working smarter not harder to get to the actual fun part ok) and then drew/painted the rest. i don’t think any of the people that were saying that will probably even see this but i hate AI just as much as you all do i promise!! i know it’s basically just a copy of a photo which is boring and my realistic stuff ends up very smooth and soft looking like AI sometimes does but that’s just my natural style i guess and what i like to do. also the feet might be a little wonky but that’s mostly because i was tired of messing with them 😭
thank you to everyone who has said kind things and stuck up for me in replies and reblogs though, i appreciate it so much!! 💕
sorry it’s been a minute but in a shocking twist i have drawn another bird. i love steller’s jays and fully believe that if presented with a tech deck any one of them could execute a flawless kickflip
