And apparently isn't even checking them, because there is at least one huge, obvious error and/or a total nonsense phrase/illegible gibberish in nearly every one. And I seem to be the only one bothered by it.

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

There's a black cosmic moth with a gray face, twinkly red eyes, and a wide smile full of sharp teeth. She's covered with embroidered stars and planets of various sizes and colors. There's a watermelon ghost covered with embroidered pink flowers sitting on a pink wire chair. There's a watermelon ghost bag and a small homunculus sitting on a pink and green striped chair. There's a tooth creature with a wide open mouth and four orange eyes and lavender eyeshadow. There's a black phantom with a gray face and wisps of every color of the rainbow.
Hey Bluesky, could you help me spread the word about my Big Cartel shop? A sale or two would be a colossal help.
All of my creations are designed, hand-sewn, hand-embroidered by me. Each takes many hours to make.

Should folks get our books directly from our store or request them at their local library? Absolutely.

Though I primarily work in traditional ink I'm proud of my accomplishments as a digital colorist. As with all my art I didn't have formal training, so it's all been trial by fire with encouragement & support from other amazing artists/friends/family. I'm particularly happy with my album cover art!
