Side note 🍒 (Patreon)

I'm kind of tired of this whole AI thing, It seems like no matter what artists do to protect our work, it always finds a way around to make our life misserable 🤣
I've always used photoshop as a digital artist, it was my first profesional drawing tool and it's so sad that, not only it has become expensive af but it has also become part of the AI ecosystem feeding our creations to a bot so it can be trained for generating empty and soulless "creative" content.

To be completely honest, I'm kind of nihilist when it comes to AI because it's always the same for us artists since it started but now that the software I used for the longest period of my career is not a safe space for me and other creatives I started to feel truly pissed.

As the result of that frustration, I started using clip studio paint more frequently. My ultimate goal is to migrate from adobe to another thing that doesn't steal my artwork. It's been kind of overwhelming because CSP has so many tools and features but it has also been fun to discover new options. Another great thing is that learning to use a new drawing app has helped me overcome my creative block in a way. I'm enjoying the process of learning again 💗

I'm glad I'm giving this software a second opportunity, even in these circumstances.

Here's a quick sketch of Pluto I did yesterday ✨
