Hello, today is #PortfolioDay. It's a good day to find people who will make mastodon a nice place, and to remind myself that one day I have to publish this western that I drew.
One problem with leaving the birdsite is that I had built up a reasonable list of illustrators to follow there, and I really haven't here. But I bet they're around. If you're a #fantasy or #sciencefiction or #comedy#illustrator, especially if you're interested in commissions from an author, give this post a like so I can check out your work. Or recommend me someone in the comments. Or boost this so more people see it. Or just tell me what good hashtags I should be following. #illustration#sff
Founded today, 1994: Mosaic Communications Corporation. You're probably more familiar with their second name, though: Netscape. My first glimpse of the web in 1995.
I was fascinated by that animated N icon. It got to me the way work by Dali and Magritte did: eerie, surreal, kind of haunting, with the glowing horizon and flying meteors during pageload. (90s internet meant seeing those meteors a lot).
Here's to yesterday's UI design, and yesterday's web.
I didn't know this post and now I think more people should see it. Especially people who draw and illustrate - because there are still too many pictures of unpractical hospital wheelchairs out there.
Je débarque sur #Mastodon et le #fediverse , alors ça tangue encore un peu !
Je suis Morgane, installée près de #Lyon , je suis illustratrice (et graphiste) en tant qu’ #artiste indépendante.
Mon domaine de prédilection ? La peinture à l’ #aquarelle
Je suis bercée dans un univers que l’on peut qualifier d’illustration jeunesse, mais moi, je considère qu’il s’adresse à tout le monde ! Ce que j’aime particulièrement ? Les petits animaux ! Ils prennent vie sous mes doigts et dans ma tête : chacun a sa propre histoire !
Buddleia, sometimes known as Butterfly-bush because of the butterflies it attracts, also the bombsite plant as apparently it was the first plant to grow on the sites where bombs fell in London during the Blitz.
It symbolises rebirth, resurrection, and new beginnings
'laughter is a strange response. i mean, what is it? it's a spasm of some kind! is that always joy? it's very often discomfort. it's some sort of explosive reaction. it's very complex.'
#art#history: &, like laughter, madeline kahn (born #otd in 1942) was complex. born in boston to a bohemian mum, mad fell into opera singing on her way to broadway, where her acting career began in 1968. [a tribute thread, of sorts, follows.] #madelineKahn#actor#cinema#broadway#illustration#portrait
Salut le Fediverse !
Tous mes projets actuels sont sur la bonne voie, aussi c'est le moment où je peux à nouveau ouvrir des créneaux pour de 🌟 nouveaux projets 🌟
Si tu as besoin de travaux de #graphisme ou d'#illustration genre un logo, une affiche, une identité graphique complète pour ton activité, je suis là ! (surtout les logos, j'adore faire ça, vraiment).

I've been manically drawing Mid-century modern #LivingRoom furniture illustrations. I would love to print this to put on my wall because I think I could look at it for a long time.
