If only ChatGPT worked like this...

On a related note, my husband @tealcartoons.bsky.social (a real human artist) is open for commissions.
A screenshot. "I want," the man said to the art robot, and then described an image in some detail. "Certainly," said the art robot. A printout came out of its chest. "Thank y--Hey! What's this?" "A list of artists who make images of the kind you describe, and who are accepting commissions." Below, another user says: "this is a horror story to a techbro and a feel-good comedy to anyone with a sense of human decency."

Its either this one or that weird one from last year, I think. 😂

#art #ocart
A digital painting of a man standing in a mostly relaxed position, hands at his sides. One his loosely open, the left ( viewer's right ) and the right is clenched tightly ( viewer's left ). His outfit overall is in shambles and is tattered all along the hems and edges. The head scarf he wears hangs loose and is frayed, although it retains its embroidery which is a lilac/gray color. What he otherwise wears is a pair of loose trousers and shirt, over that a sleeveless robe of sorts. There are cloth bindings around his arm bracers and around his midsection are multiple layers of fabric keeping his outfit together. His color palette consists of black, gray, red and soft muted variants of purple and gray.

Shadow is my tool
The image depicts a man with short dark hair, wearing a suit and tie. His face is partially illuminated, and his eyes are glowing. Thin lines resembling markings or seams are visible on his skin. The background is completely black.

I know it doesn't look it but there is SO much detailed packed in this WIP
A hand made knitted blanket WIP, with an orange border and multi-colored middle. The stockinette is pink, the moss is a mix of orange, green, blue, pink, and white. The reverse stockinette is pink, the eyelets are yellow. And then it repeats in that pattern until the moss. It is currently unfinished and will repeat all of it once I'm done.

Art friends, I need help!

I've been asked to provide an insurance value for this drawing for the faculty/staff art show at work.

This is a hobby; I have NO IDEA how to put a value on my work.

Any tips??

The piece is 14" x 17", took ~45 hours of work, and is signed by the subjects, if that helps?
My pencil drawing of Becky and Nat from The Iron Roses. The finished drawing shows the pair singing into microphones on stage; the equipment on stage behind them is drawn to look blurry. Me and my husband Scott, standing next to Becky and Nat. I'm holding up the drawing of them, which they have signed in gold sharpie. Close-up of the signed drawing as I hold it up.

(Having a bad interview today just sums it all up I think...)
comic of Little Hiker Bird roasting a marshmallow over a campfire. Text: "Life is like roasting a marshmallow. You have to keep it moving, so it cooks evenly. It takes time and patience." The marshmallow catches fire and burns, and the bird responds "F*CK%NG $H*T!"

I love gradient maps as a means to explore colour combinations. Originally I was visualising this with cool light, but the golden glow was too fitting.

Pen drawing of a feminine figure on the right side with an elongated skull that flows into various organic shapes down and around her long neck as he long tongue extrudes out of her mouth, licking twisted organic form with multiple faces and made up of intertwining tendrils and other fleshy, bulbous shapes. Surrounding the scene are streaks of night sky embedded with ghostly forms and surrounded by twisted bodies and body parts. Pen drawing with a large black void filled with eye and star like structures in it with tentacles of night hovering amoung insectoid biomechanical forms and structures that flow to the right towards more structured forms dominated by a large or very close feminine figure. She is staring at the void while surrounded like ancient Egyptian mythological type figures with animal heads. The entire world is ancient structures carved with runes and organic shapes growing over them. Pen drawing that fills a page with large, unearthly looking shapes that intertwine with each other into a dense scene with shell like structures, large hollows almost with an insectoid eye cluster type appearance with the most prominent features being a mostly hidden skull on the left and right of center is a more prominent and visible humanoid skull. This skull is implied to be massive based on the figures standing in the eye sockets and the appearance that it is at the end of a trail while the skull and walkway is rising above out of twisted root like structures, fleshy sacks and other features. Standing out of these is an almost carved theatre style mask set in a frieze with an arch of skulls over it and seemingly supporting the trail. Full page pen drawing of a figure with a chain mail like hood draped over their head the flows into robes accented with tusks over the shoulder and holding an orb between their hands, one over, one under with a glowing white energy around a black, pupil like sphere. Flanking at a distance to either side are two others with the furthest back on the left having 3 horizontal, rectangular extensions off the headdress. Behind the one on the right is a large, ancient stone structure with black panels set into it where white, ghostly, humanoid and near-humanoid figures are visible, while branching like structures fill the upper part of the page where the sky would be, blotting out the starscape. On the left diamond shaped craft hang in the air while the top of structures emerge from a fog, including a large T shaped structure.

Fun fact: all the character models in this scene are the same size 3d render showing a woman in a fantasy adventurer gear standing on top of a cliff with glowing crystals hovering above her outstretched hands. next to her is her saddled deer and a cat is standing on her shoulders.

Illustration of a raven in its cozy nest den inside of a tree, rain visible outside. It's reading a book, and there's a cracker for snacking nearby. There are also a few 'trinkets' in view (paperclips, beads, etc) that the raven collected.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 15. For stones that play with the light, you can't beat labradorite. The stones are an interesting colour, understated. They remind me a little of river water... in a good way. Then the light hits them differently and they're rainbows and icy blue shine. Truly beautiful beads.
Image is a necklace draped over a piece of amethyst, on a grey fabric background. The necklace is made from oval labradorite beads, and tiny opaque soft-pink glass pearls. It is finished with a gold-plated toggle clasp.

She is staring at the void while surrounded like ancient Egyptian mythological type figures with animal heads. The entire world is ancient structures carved with runes and organic shapes growing over them. Pen drawing of an alien covered in coral looking bio-mechanical growths and a fogged visor only showing eyes with tentacle like limbs 'crab-walking' towards the left. Its companion is folded up in a corner among the curved walls that are covered in alien machinery that has organic like textures that look carved or inscribed. Behind the moving alien is a large oval window showing a star scape in deep space. Pen drawing of a humanoid with a void and a single star-like pin point of light in the center. Their unclothed but low definition body flows down into a number of organic shapes and semi-human faces that make up the overgrown mass of eyes, and root like structures. Up the sides it flows up into aged bone and metal structures that eventually becomes a set of highly complex technological structures that radiate outward from a marble like halo that surrounds the head.
