The best thing about being an artist is that you can draw what you want. Until you can't draw it. Then it's horrible being an artist.

Ever just make an OC and you think they’ll just be a one-off character but then all of the sudden, whoop. You dive into the character to understand how they handle a situation you put them in, you help them succeed, develop their personality more than you planned and you’re just attached to your little baby now so you’ve got to see them grow and flourish and make it to the happy ending they deserve?

Comic #335: Spot the AI - Website links: Here! My MIL means well, but she was being fooled by detailed art-dolls of baby animals before AI became a thing! Now so many people like her are going to have a legitimately hard time knowing if photos are real or not & it is only going to get worse. I've definitely been fooled too, but if I spend more than a few minutes looking at something I can usually tell it's generated crap.

Happy new year friends! I'm back from my holiday break. If you do anything creative, do you relate to this? The idea of what you want to draw/write/create is so big and cool and exciting in your head but once you do it - it's nowhere near as impressive haha. Happens to me more often than I'd like.

I wasn't going to post about this but the recent headlines changed my mind. A couple of weeks ago someone linked me this design and asked if it was mine. It's not. I don't work with Romwe (owned by Shein). However, their shirt is a blatant knockoff of one of my designs that I've had for sale for 3 years now. I'm not sure what I'll do about this situation yet. Fyi, my official merch is always linked in my profile (and sometime soon I should have a bunch of new designs, including a series of significantly improved cherry blossom designs)

On making a living as an artist

In a world where art and other creative pursuits should be an inspiring, honest and a direct reflection of our society, it is truly disheartening to realize that most mainstream artists come from some place of privilege. Whether it be racial, financial, social, or geographic, artists succeed not just from their skill alone, but from having the privilege to make enough sacrifices to pursue art as a full-time job. Even when you do find the right representation, it may feel as though you must sacrifice your independence and your voice as a trade for financial security. This can make you feel like you're alone, or just another piece in a system designed to exploit you for capitalistic gain. Now, now, sweet artist. I know you may feel quite depressed after reading all this. It's hard not to. Part of these frustrations are why I'm here writing this in the first place : because I believe that these systems must change and our approaches to financial stability as artists must be more transparent. I believe positive change comes from the transparency to know what it is that needs to change. For too long, our culture has resisted a more public conversation about personal finances. In many ways, this has enabled us to become a society that's content to embrace the outdated trope of the starving artist. Let's change that.

A special interest is like having a snow globe on your desk and rotating it gently from time to time, but a hyperfixation is like violently shaking that same snow globe with both hands all day long and you can't even look away. I have to shake the snowglobe and count all the little snow particles and maybe eat them

the main problem with making things is finishing the projects you start

the urge to do something creative is there but it's squashed by me having all the energy of a wet paperbag

Drawing Weyoun is a very slippery slope to just drawing Herbert West.

My focus wanders like you wouldn’t believe!
