There’s a common feeling across the U.S. right now, a sense of helplessness. Many people want to do more but feel like they can’t. Remember: every action you take pushes the resistance forward.

Guess who's sketching again?!
Also, I've found out the hack to looser sketching is making my initial background color Post-It Note yellow💛 #sketches #wip

🎶 How the gentle wind beckons through the leaves 🎶 🍂 Finished my #overthegardenwall inks! I wanted to capture a woodcut/woodburn illustration aesthetic which fits the vibe of OTGW so well and let me reconnect with my linocut printing days from art school (eons ago). Now onto the colours!

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

The coolest coffee shop in Omaha, Nebraska 🎃 (Edge of the Universe - they swap out themes every season) Such a delightful treat after work!

Literally pissed off that I still can't wear cozy jackets or sweaters yet😩 Here's hoping this week's forecast for cooler temps actually comes true lol

Vanessa Satone @vsatone.bsky.social · 13d

My hot take is that it shouldn't be 80 degrees in October.

Same. Every time I sit down to draw them, it suddenly becomes awkward trying to think of face placement and proportions while making an impassioned interaction.

Hello! I do linocuts and design enamel pins. Here's a piece of a multiple panel linocut I am working on featuring cartoon rats acting out scenes homaging canceled CW show Reign:

Panel showing a cross section of a castle like a doll house. Rats are doing things in each room.
Balcony rat crying holding the skull of one of his five dead wives
Rat eating cheese off a knife while reading in a luxurious bed
Rat on a balcony creeping with a dagger
Rat in a bathtub dangling a crown off his tail while drinking wine
Rat swooning in a hallway with hearts while kinda creeping on the tub rat because he has a weird fetish
Rat burying A Body in a dungeon and sweating
Rat delighted by flowers at a First Bloom Party (they're narcissus flowers)
Rat masquerading as a priest doing communion while infiltrating Queen Elizabeth's castle

A digital drawing featuring some little panels with landscapes insidethem, a big flower, and a vase of flowers. In one of the landscape is a person with a beret and a backpack, and in the other a kite is flying around the landscape. On top of all of it is the text "let the wind carry you to where you're meant to go".

For anyone who needs to hear it, the advice to "always do your best" does not necessarily mean "always be the best."

Our "best" can change from day to day. Every day is different.

Doing your best just means being kind with yourself—knowing what you want and having the courage to go after it.
