Voting just opened for this month's art challenge!
Quick doodle at Graz' Linux Days at the KDE table
I tried my best, given the cursed ergonomics XDD
Was a fun experience trying out this specific tablet and Krita at the same time tho
Beep Boop: Alien hates doing #selfPromo so made a bot to do it instead!
I made a #Krita bundle with about 100 #gradient maps that I've made/modified while playing around
& its FREE:

Image editors like GIMP are fairly generic - "jack of all trades, master of none".
#krita emerged in the 2000s as a specialised tool for drawing and painting with realistic pen/brush marks.
It has been a real success story - gaining quality as good/better than commercial tools, retaining a firm focus on good UX, and gathering a strong community around it.

Mail call! ( ~ animation in #godotengine, frames drawn in #krita)
Keeping on track with Krita (alpha6 build from master source) and Qt6 builds together with upstream developers, with PyQt6 enabled I can now also use the python scripts in Krita on Haiku. (not that I would know how to, as much as I don't know how to code)
Remember that fancy Frenchie I kept posting for #WIPWednesday?
His #book is finally live on #Kickstarter ! THE POOCH SALUTE! is a cozy contemporary #fantasy with talking #dogs, Crock-Pot healing potions, and a Fourth of July parade no one’s ready for.
It's got warmth, wit, and second chances—for people and pups.

Hi~
Let me try to do an #introduction >.<
I draw for fun, mostly #Hololive / VTuber fanart or something like #KanColle. Sometimes #original stuff, occasionally NSFW.
Drawings are done using Wacom Intuos S and #Krita running on 10+ years old potato pc, recently migrated from Win10 to Fedora KDE.
A few years back I did "100 weeks of drawing" - posting at least one #art per week on Pixiv. While this rate is not particularly fast, it was a fun exercise in pushing through artblocks and just getting things done to a "good enough" level before deadline.
Here are a few examples of my works from those years ^.^
This week's Spoonflower challenge is Pet Doodles. My cats have things to say.

Some patterns, but more colours now. Concept changed during creating.

#krita
my #foss #fave -- #fossfave of the period of time I randomly chose.
David Revoy was one of my first digital art inspirations. I have a "Digital Video Disk" of his work painting a cool spaceship.
That was a LONG time ago.
#krita has flourished from his works and efforts.
My views and perspectives of art digital and otherwise have been transformed, and a bonus, I have been further inspired to remain in the FOSS world to contribute AND reap the benefits of many small communities, as a big one kinda!
When I see individuals like David around after so many years, it bolsters the stability in my works and it does give a boost of confidence and soft drive to simply keep improving and then helping others improve.
This was random. Thanks!
PS. hes in a muthafuggin museum!!!!
