It's #PortfolioDay already!? Hey, I'm Vix, a queer artist from Atlantic Canada!
My work is full of colour, fantasy/sci-fi, and character design, and I'm currently working on two indie games.

Congrats and a huge HELL YEAH to the people of Brazil for pushing back and saying fuck you to fascism. This and the Serbian Student win are making me feel so much hope and I'm so grateful to these folks for showing us how it's fucking done! 💖💕
Also, artist friends, if you can, GO WORK IN THE LIBRARY!!! It's a nice, quiet space, but it's also a community space, and you don't have to buy anything to justify being there! You can just go!! And it's better for your brain to work in places that you don't sleep in!
Legit though, if you like metal and haven't yet, check out PINKNOISE. Kacey Foxx is the lead singer and they have such a beautiful voice!!!

Data centres that can drive up power bills and risk our environment are not what Nova Scotians asked for.
We're calling on Premier Tim Houston to convene an emergency session of the Legislature immediately.
Believe that though we never eat, we still know how to feed.

A long overdue comm for my dear friend @itssteffnow.bsky.social of their darlings Henry and Hristo.
Something that's helped the marketing of my comic is 100% bespoke logos.
If you're like me (an illustrator, NOT a designer!!), I recommend finding someone amazing like @elchupalabras.itch.io, who you can vomit movie posters, vinyl record covers and character art at and they just make magic happen.
Anybody have any resources/guides on using Alt Text as an artist? My research keeps pulling up VERY SEO targeted guidance and none of it answers the very specific questions I have, and rarely provides guidance for an artist to describe their own work. Feel free to share!

I understand the guidance of simplifying the description if it's a meme or a GIF or even a selfie, but I want to know if people who regularly utilize Alt Text (not the social media managers giving guidance online) prefer that, or if they also want a straight forward and simplified description?
Thanks to anyone who can weigh in! I have a lot of executive dysfunction around the "rules" of alt text, and I think getting other people's feedback will really help. 😭

Is it okay for me, as an artist and storyteller, to describe the piece in detail WITH my creative voice? For example, since I CAN, I would like to write alt text so I can narratively provide as close a facsimile as I can to the experience of looking at the drawing I'm sharing.
Hello I'm Virgil Casper, a Black, Indigenous and Iranian American, queer, alt and trans artist and writer working on their debut trilogy. Querying agents this year! Come join me and my main character, Ceelyo, on this journey!
Pearls of Wishes is a queer YA fantasy! Pitch below!
bluesky is using AI, fourthwall is using AI, patreon is using AI, twitch is using AI, my tiny german internet host in the middle of nowhere is using AI - unfortunately everything tech related will be touched by this shit somehow. all you can do is disable it best you can and tell them it sucks
I think we need to stop trying to make breakaway pop hits for James Bond themes and go back to trying to make breakaway pop hits for Batman movies. Hell, for *all* superhero movies, since we have so many of them - bring back the era of Face to Face, Kiss From A Rose, Hero by Chad Kroeger
#Inktober Day 15: Hooray!
Halfway through the month! 🌟
Also, little reminder that I'm going to be at Lightbox Expo next week at booth 236! So excited! I'll make a more proper post about that soon, but I'll have all the usual merch stuff with me. Come say hello! 💗
