Thanks so much Anna... for a platform for creatives (much more 'creative' since I blocked any mention of 'drumph' and 'husk' in my stream) it's still a bit disappointing that not that many of us write alt.text, but we'll keep prodding and promoting it for the good of all!

Hi Mark... yes, I already follow Anna so have seen her creative promotion pinned. However, I have hardly any time to post photos or my artwork on Bluesky at the moment being deep into a photo project for the next couple of months! But I still log on every morning for a quick shufty! :-)

I'm in Europe but feel that this visual message needs spreading... so just ordered a bunch of these buttons and stickers for passing around. Take a look at their website for more positive thoughts to wear and share!

Hello Mark... looked through your stream and have added you to my updated Starter Pack “Artists using alt.text” which hopefully will reach 50 for release in a few days. I'm trying to encourage alt.text use and after listing 150+ photographers on my other thread I'm now doing the same for artists.

Spot on... you've hit the nail on the head!

I always read alt.text when I see the tell-tale tab and generally feel enlightened... although unfortunately some people still use/write it poorly with just a title and hashtags (which is what alt.text is NOT for) and thus no proper explanatory meaning.

I'm beginning to repeat myself here on Bluesky, such is the nature of the platform and discovering new people... but although your art is completely different to mine in both subject and style, I love it!

During the late '50s early '60s whilst at grammar school in Manchester, the annual Easter holiday was ten days at Perros-Guirec on the Côte de Granit Rose... I think I went there four times on school trips with a couple of dozen other pupils and two teachers.

Visiting Tours at least once a month I go from south to north and back again across which part of her body I do not know... but from next Wednesday I will always think of her naked invisibility as I cross and recross those two rivers.

Walked up and down the incline to that station many times in the '60/70s.

I still have a few dozen part-used sheets of Letraset and Letragraphica... this example 'Stop' and 'Yarra' being my favourites.

Interestingly, or not, I spotted a few paintings at Francis Bacon's exhibition at Beaubourg in Paris a few years ago where he had applied random Letraset letters.

Strange how, when I scrolled slowly through my stream and this image started to appear, I saw a pair of hands clasped together between the top of legs.

Reminds me of movie film reels.

Although I've always been more a graphic-straight-line type of artist, I was rapidly introduced to "art brut", or "outsider art", about five years ago at the Halle-Saint-Pierre in Montmartre, Paris. I now go there every year to see the new shows and am amazed at the variation in creativity.

Totally unlike anything I create... but I love your work!

"VOX" is a very dystopian novel, and I thought a better plot than Attwood's "The Handmaid's Tale"... however, both are rather timely reading and a wake-up call!

Yes, very cheeky the one next to me, I thought!

The only vehicle Drump would want to sit in would have a big shiny silver bell, a klaxon, a ladder and be painted fire-engine r... oh, I've given too many clues!

That's the feeling I got when reading Christina Dalcher's "VOX - Silence Can Be Deafening" a couple of weeks ago!

I shave to smile seeing that rather nice bare bum next to my selfie!

PS : Not too late, I hope, but it's worth adding Yann Oehl @yannoehl.bsky.social to this list!

Reminds me of that old saying about him (I can't even write his name)... "Everything he touches dies!"

Very interesting video on an artist I was not previously aware of. Her brushstrokes have wonderful detail - as do those of my favourite abstract painter Sean Scully when viewed in the real - and in a way similar to some portrait works by John Bratby... i.e. full of passion!

Hello Grant… I looked through your stream and have added you to my next Starter Pack “Photographers using alt.text” (no.4) which should reach another 50 for general release hopefully in a week.
