Rowyn's 2025 ART vs ARTIST
I didn't draw as much throughout the year, and instead kinda concentrated it all in March and October.
March being for Mutations, due to @galusaurus.bsky.social

‘Buddo’ - a rare representation of a human figure from the British Neolithic, dating to around 2900-2400 BC. Discovered at Skara Brae in the mid-C19th, it was re-discovered amongst the archaeological collections at Stromness Museum in 2016. 📸 My own. #FindsFriday #Archaeology

I've shared this one before but, any thoughts on what they’re looking at here? I’m not sure. Whatever it is, Pomni is concerned about it.

I want indie comics and zines to be trendy at cons so bad! I want artists to feel free to express themselves and connect with other fans with a bunch of cheap stapled photocopies, I want anyone who wants to practice their storytelling to be able to do so without worrying about not selling enough!

Did I make a joke that might only be funny if you know two totally different projects #WaltonGoggins has done?
Yes.
Do I regret this?
Absolutely not.

Buddy, it's all fruit of a poisoned tree. Once you outsource idea/concept generation to a theft machine, nothing developed thereafter has any value.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

some studios are pro-junk and AI-slop now i guess
not surprised. but at the end of the day, the only thing that will end this is you and your dollar.
if you want human-made art and animation, it’s up to you, the customer, to prove it.
rip Hollywood. the next iteration of you will make more sense.

I specifically had to frame it in terms of breaking customers’ trust. If a customer sees a corp’s AI photo/video, and clocks it as fake, they can’t trust that the company’s services actually provide real results either. They feel lied to, and won’t buy
(Which *should* seem obvious from jump, but 🤷)

I would love to know some of the points you brought up that helped provide your boss with perspective and encourage the reconsideration, if you don't mind sharing~

PSA to anyone ever looking to hire an illustrator, artist, designer, craftsperson, etc:
Do not send them gen ai images.
*Especially* do not send them ai images to use as a basis to work off of/ improve/ fix for you. Just send a description of what you are looking for and a sketch (100000% better!)

The weird thing about transphobia, and probably about bigotry in general, is the pretty common intuition that the person bringing it up is always the one “making a show of it.” Boyne literally thinks the criticism of his book is ideologically motivated, yet I’M ideologically motivated for saying it

I have 2 art beliefs but I'm not sure how to connect them
1. Art is a hard-learned skill. Artist is a serious job that should be paid well
2. Art is an inherent human activity, but professioanlizing it has made many think it's only for pros; When really everybody should make art, no matter how bad
