This is amazing and absolutely captures so much of his expression/ body language. ALSO, CATS. And he’s a musical theatre guy. AfuckinMazing.

Hello I'm the artist!!
The meerkat and the flamingo and the sketchpage were actually just examples of my work and characters, only the wolf and cat are fursona design concepts!

I stand by the cat
The cat is the best one
I put so much thought into this cat

Black ink sketch of full body and bust of OC Wolfe, and their companion/familiar (lite) Roast a smoke dragon like creature - in a pastel abstract background.

Black ink sketch of full body and bust of OC Wolfe, and their companion/familiar (lite) Roast a smoke dragon like creature - in a pastel abstract background.

Wolfe (he/they) is a mixed canidae small fat artist and researcher. He loves to dress in layers and their fur is constantly dyed differently. He is covered in tattoos, a favourite being a bunch of grapes on golden vines (loves the smell but…is allergic….). Due to an eye and brain injury often has to keep left eye covered, only using it when having to assist Roast with magical tasks (can see certain magic signatures).
Loves to dress up but often needs to keep various parts exposed to control temperature. Loves heat but becomes over taken by Roast -a smoke creature companion often likes to be a small dragon (any pronouns) who takes on many forms,  that leave ink-like smoke blots around forms (cannot maintain solid shape). A favourite pastime they share is dancing, often envisioning the scenes Wolfe will create (Wolfe says use refs)!

Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

The AI Industry Is Traumatizing Desperate Contractors in the Developing World for Pennies AI is propped up by a global sweat shop operation, where exploited workers polish the software for wealthy corporations in the west.

“…for an AI chatbot to generate an autopsy report, contract workers have to sift through thousands of gruesome crime scene images, a gig known as ‘data labeling.’”

Just two weeks until EU will vote about removing our basic rights and enacting AI-controlled mass surveillance of all private digital communication.
Please tell everyone you know to contact your MEPs about this! Tell them to say NO to Chat Control!

a beastly portrait for Shelgoat of their werewolf!
I decided to dip into the painting process on this one as a thank you for their patience, and had a ton of fun as a result. I’ll definitely be doing more of this in the future 🐗

My theory is that Seven of Nine would love a Tamagotchi, especially if it were a star.

Some hand sheets I made for the animation team! I looked at how Dana drew hands a lot and coupled it with my own anatomical knowledge of hands. #KnightsOfGuinevere
