lmao even the machine doesnt consider AI images to be art
twitter screenshot of idiot asking grok if art can be made by non people to which it firmly shuts his ass down saying AI images are merely a simulation of art.

This is the biggest full circle connection in my career.

Over two years ago a designer with Random House (thank you Nicole Block!!) working on a Dungeons&Dragons and Stranger Things tie-in contacted me about the old D&D art she had see me share online from my youth...

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..." "not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..." "...you're rich. If you have, whatever-" "- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

If you know me well, you know the Golden Age illustrators are among the most foundational of my influences, and of these, Edmund Dulac is perhaps among the top three strongest. One of my artistic heroes for all time. 🥲💙

Happy birthday, Edmund Dulac!

🎉Happy Birthday to Edmund Dulac, who was born on this day 1882!

A favorite of the Golden Age of Illustration, Dulac was one of the few artists with technical skill to rival the likes of Arthur Rackham and Beatrix Potter. His twilight soaked imagery is dreamlike and otherworldly.🧵
