I feel like it isn’t discussed enough how hard it is to improve at a craft when your basic needs aren’t being met. Unsafe living conditions, food insecurity, & exhausting work hours crank the difficulty on “improvement” up to absolute maximum. That kind of stress is all consuming

We just passed 330 students for my digital painting course with Domestika!! Thank you so much!

The course is on summer sale for 3 more hours: domestika.org/en/courses/436…

It seems Rapper Tataloo also used my artwork Guardian of the Village. The Guardian of the Village is a good creature :(. Breaks my heart to see this.

Rapper Tataloo used my art 2 yrs ago w/out permission as a cover, only removing it after my tweet.

Now he‘s using another piece of mine, „Where Light and Dark Meet“, for a new release. Yes they changed things but I can tell they used my art as base.

You can’t make this up 🤦🏼‍♂️

Tomorrow I‘ll be sharing a super exciting secret project I‘ve been working on for the past few months!

This is just a teaser. 🫢

Any guesses what it might be?

My treasures from #Eurofurence 💜 Thank you everyone who wanted to trade for my stuff as Well 💜 and Jonas Jödicke for this awesome signed print can’t wait to make them justice and get a frame to hang it on my wall 💙

The driver who took me to #EF26 saw fursuiters walking around the venue & asked snidely „sure this is where you‘re going?“

Hell yes! I‘ve never met a kinder & more open minded community than the furry fandom. Thanks for having me as guest of honor & hope to see you all again!

„How can I grow my following?“

In my experience it’s better to ask: „How can I grow my passion, skills and commitment?“

The latter approach is less focused on external outcomes. Passion, skill and consistency will attract the right people to your work in the long run.

7 years ago I was a Mormon missionary in Switzerland. When I left the church 4 years later I was so afraid „God would curse me“ and I‘d never be successful with my art.

Swiss friends just sent me this photo of my puzzle they found at their local Migros.

Cults lie I guess. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Watch a billion dollar news company use my footage without licensing it

I‘m all against gatekeeping but:

no, using AI to generate pretty images doesn’t make you an artist. You‘re using a tool that is sourcing from centuries worth of hard work by real human creatives.

Anyone can be an artist but it requires more than having cool ideas for prompts.

Artists sneaking AI art into their feed hoping no one will notice got my trust issues like: 📈📈📈

I‘ll be a guest of honor at Eurofurence in Berlin this year!!

After being their digital goh for two consecutive years because of the pandemic, I‘ll finally be able to attend physically!

Meet me at the Dealer‘s Den, one of my panels or wandering around the location awkwardly 🎉

Being an artist in the age of technology is exhausting. People don’t just want to see a finished painting, THEY WANNA SEE A TIMELAPSE FROM START TO FINISHED WITH DUBBED WITH THEIR FAVORITE SONG AND GOOD EDITING. Then after you gotta do a dance.

Hi everyone! I debated tweeting this because I feel embarrassed/ashamed but I think it is important for my followers to know - both gay men, patient-facing doctors, and pathologists alike - in order to combat this disease.

I have monkeypox!

Here is a thread 1/13

„This can’t be your art, I saw it on Google!“

Yeah.. because images on Google just spawn out of nowhere. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Inside you there are two wolves
