Commission Update!

Hey everyone! I have an important announcement to make:

Starting tomorrow, I will be accepting commissions for only $20 for the next few weeks! There are a few things to know before you go sending me your commissions to me:

1: I can do only line art and shaded pieces, but if you want me to render it, it will cost extra.

2: I’ll accept any kind of commissions from character designs, dynamic poses, to... pretty much everything really, but I won't do anything NSFW.

3: I can only allow you to receive the art piece ONLY after I receive the money. When I’m ready I’ll send you my PayPal link.

And that’s everything, now I did say I wasn't going to start until tomorrow, but if you want to go ahead and send me the commissions now that would work fine too. I can get to work first thing in the morning.

Thank you all for helping me and supporting me throughout these hard times. It means a lot to me!

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know!

Love you all!

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue!

I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product.

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?

Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.

Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases.

Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.
