My #ArtVsArtist for 2024.
While the last quarter was tough, it was a good year overall art wise. Happy my male anatomy seems to be improving. Next year I wanna focus on bettering my coloring skills.

A customer came to my table. In the past he bought different prints. A friend was with him & he says, "See! The prints weren't AI.” You know I emulate styles. His friend thought they weren't real art. I showed them the piece on my table. AI is becoming a normal thing. It’s awful.

When it’s slow at a con, you work on your next piece.
Can y’all guess what I’m doing next? 😉🔥

You all love this man because of a movie. I love this man because he’s 1 of the greatest artists to walk this earth.
Happy heavenly birthday to the best cartoonist, Bob Morales.
He endured a lot, yet had the strength to overcome hopelessness.✊🏽
Te amo, my hero.❤️‍🔥

An eye opener. Worth the subscription. Available until the 15th. #VanessaMarquez had so much beauty, talent, & corazón. She stayed focused & kept fighting. Pushing harder & harder everyday. Defied the odds to open the door for Latina women.
Now she’s inspiring me. 🥹❤️‍🔥

Sorry that art has been MIA. I’m currently preparing for cons, trying to master my new drawing tablet & a new art software.

This has all gotten me a bit burnt out. 🥵
Remember to pace yourselves. 🧘🏻‍♀️✍🏽

I'm currently drafting out my letter now. Please send those letters out before the end of March!

You'll need to include Yolanda's TDGJ number in your letter which is 00733126.

Diverse Deity @mangamexicana.bsky.social · Jan 16

We have 73 days left until Yolanda Saldivar’s parole hearing & I think I speak for most San Antonians that we don't want her back here where she can do harm again.
So here's all the information you'll need...

Been sick with a little cold all week. Finally decided to stay home. The lavender tea & Benadryl is helping a lot.
I'll just continue to work on this cuz art puts me at ease.♥️
