NEW ART! Some other minor tweaks. Also updated my Tools page to include the incredible new mechanical pencil I've been using. Over the near future I'll look into setting up a blog, links page, how-to-indieweb page, and guestbook.

Another one of those "I hate this Twitter update, follow me on Bsky now" exoduses going on. My unfortunate prediction is that Bsky will succumb to the same ad-bloat and callout-swarm insanity as X, Meta, Tumblr etc. I keep telling people MAKE A WEBPAGE. Obviously don't quit socmedia if you need it for business, but being a creative type and NOT having your own independently controlled space is abject cyber-serfdom.

yeah it sucks that nobody discovers pages anymore thru search engines. But in my experience having a lovingly crafted & unique/memorable page gets way more visits and email newsletter signups than when I had a ho hum Linktree/Carrd thing.

Minor update to my linktree. Will have another update later today/this weekend with some new art and other small touches.

Thinking about adding a blog, looking for suggestions. How do you people go about making yours? Do you just code each entry manually or use something like Zonelets? Static site generator? Dreamwidth or some other embeddable journal thing?

I do it manually with each entry being its own page, though I reuse the HTML each time. There's room for it being more fancy but I keep it simple since blogging isn't a huge focus for me.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback both of you. If anyone else has info to share I'm all ears. Currently looking into Hugo and other static page generators, something I have no familiarity with... Seems useful maybe.

I'm redoing my blog, still don't know if I will change this, but until now it was made by each entry manually.

those chapters are yet to be written, they will likely be handmade.

Your artwork is simply fantastic, and your site design is massively inspiring. Really nice to discover other illustrators around here, especially ones so skilled at creating a fully immersive experience to browse your work in. Following with GREAT interest!

Thank you for your words. your illustrations are fantastic, expressive and fluid, reminded me a lot of the likes of N.C. Wyeth and Scott Wills.

Focus-themed playlist I made while building my site last year, and I still update regularly. Atmospheric drum & bass and Trance mostly. Great for late-night drawing, coding, writing, lonely midnight drives, or putting on at a low volume for gaming. ENJOY -- https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4xsVYD8clHfLAG4Z3hutyh
