Might Delete My DA Account - UPDATED!
UPDATED INFO ABOUT ME LEAVING: So DA back-pedaled and made everyone's work automatically opted out of being used for AI, but I dunno, from what I've read the little anti-AI check that was put on all deviations may have actually been a whole lot of nothing and was just a failed, useless gesture of marking people's work as "not for AI use" that came off completely wrong when they didn't make it automatically checked for everyone, but announcing their own AI alongside of it was a VERY dumb decision, and just them making their own AI at all is bad enough that it just made me all the more tired of this site. (I'm also tired of every site giving us these "lovely" new features no one wants but that's another rant, I guess.) Ultimately I still don't feel as comfortable keeping my work here now as I did before, and the site has been pretty off and mostly dead in recent years, as much as I appreciate all those who do still fav and comment here. So I'm still leaning towards leaving
I'm Greek-Canadian, a psychopedagogue, a published author and whenever it's needed I'm also an activist ;) I love making art and I don't think I will ever stop writing, painting and drawing.
Current Residence: Athens Favourite genre of music: I like anything sincere that has something to say. Favourite style of art: Anything that is not an excuse not to learn to draw, sculpt or write... Favourite cartoon character: Zuko from Avatar, Mulan... see a pattern here? Personal Quote: Do you understand now?
Favourite Visual Artist
There are many, but currently I really like Alexandros Alexandrakis. Google him!
Favourite Movies
There's too many of them.
Favourite Bands / Musical Artists
Changes every hour...
Favourite Writers
Again far too many... classic wins with me would be Anne Marie Selinco and Henryk Sienkiewicz.
Tools of the Trade
keyboard, wacom, eyes, brain. Oh, and pencils. Naturally.
