Friends, we got a call to action 👇

We have the right to know when and how our creative works are used, especially when it comes to GenAi!

This is why we need regulation like California’s Ai Copyright Transparency Act #AB-412 !

If you agree, especially if in CA, please sign & share this petition!

Let’s Be Clear: Artists & Creators Must Have Transparency NOW!

Every single day we don’t have transparency, the value of copyright loses ground and the harms inflicted to creative industries grow. California has always been on the forefront of policies that can ...

I spent last night pedalling under Wheel World's topaz skies and it was bliss. Not sure it'll offer enough 'game' for everyone, but the cycling mechanics are tight and racing is competitive.

The real joy, though, is simply taking in the view as you weave between traffic and pelt down dirt roads.

Well since for now the DWP has decided I am not Disabled Enough for money from them it would be a great time for more sales on my shop! 💁‍♀️

Happy #lesbianvisibilityweek! Here's a wee reintroduction - I'm Tiff, a disabled lesbian artist in the UK. I make historically inspired lesbian art, making visible the lives which went unnoticed & unseen before. If you want to support my work the best way is via my shop! tiffbaxtershop.etsy.com

A mirror selfie of Tiff with her cartoon self drawn in, looking mischievous.

An illustration of a couple in medieval feminine dress embracing. The person on the left has long hair, a red gown with golden girdle (belt) and a gold and white striped escoffion hat. The person on the right is in the habit of a nun which includes black veil and white wimple. They are in front of a gothic architecture frame topped with a winged heart. There is a ribbon of parchment which reads 'BE MINE' in gothic lettering floating in front of them.

An illustration of a knight being embraced behind by an angel. She is wearing a heart patterned tabard over mail and some plate armour. The angel is wearing a billowing robe & her feet are bare. Their hair blows in swirls in a breeze.

A pair of lesbians personifying shooting stars fly through a nebula in a loving embrace surrounded by lots of smaller stars. The one on the left has a pale gold and white colour scheme and long hair and wears a dress with large slashed & puffed sleeves. The one on the right has a blue and gold colour scheme and wears a tunic with puffed over the knee breeches and cross gartered stockings. The border decoration is deep blue illustrated with clouds, the phases of the moon, and stars.

I’m trying to find this old concept art tutorial from the concept art .org days, maybe even earlier than that. It’s like a large man? Maybe a pig man? With a big belly. Kinda like road hog but rendered in that early 2000s concept art style. That’s all I’ve got, help me

I'm making a Fool card for a tarot deck, and was curious to see if Balatro's Joker is the same resolution. And it is. Pixelart is a severely underrated medium
