Buddy 🌱 - comms open!

my mom taught me there's two kinds of businesses: hot dog stands and art galleries

- hot dog stands protect territory and keep competition off their turf
- art galleries benefit from more adjacent art galleries, cluster together to amplify reach/support

youre an art gallery, not a hot dog stand

the argument that AI in the context of art is “just a tool” completely elides the fact that the point of art is to participate in the fucking process of making it

An anthropomorphic nasturtium flower is drinking a tall glass of lemonade out of a pink/lavender straw, with two white kittens in the foreground. One is curious, standing and leaning it's paws against the glass. In a red/orange/blue/white/yellow color scheme.

A huge staghorn beetle is eating cookies with a puppy out of a tin, with bleeding hearts flowers with faces snoozing over them, one awake and observing. In a hot pink/blue/yellow/teal color scheme.

Finally scanned the risographs of these two designs, pretty pleased with how they turned out! 🏵️🐈🪲🐕

A digital illustration, fan art of Kirby. It shows Kirby standing in an open grassy field on a bright, sunny summer day. He is looking around as he holds the rim of his yellow straw hat with one hand and a large bug net with his other hand. He has a green bug cage slung over his body, like a little sling bag.

Kirby’s summer adventure! 👒🍃
