My name is Alexandra. I help build I Write Like, a text editor. Unless one is a tech giant, the chances of people discovering their creation are slim, regardless of how wonderful the creation is. I wanted to change that, so I came to Mastodon.
I’m a writer. I share my short stories and poems, often illustrated with my own art and photography. I'm also interested in #science, #history, and #music.
I’m fairly new here and still learning.

Handmade art book for my Moon-obsessed toddler 🌕
(Sans cover because their name is on it)
It started as a low effort "I can finish this in one afternoon" project, with finger-painted moon & splotchy stars. But I decided to add the animals so it ballooned into a week-long ordeal.
Acrylic paint, gesso, matte medium & water-soluble pastels on 180gsm mixed media paper.

Chooms, today I want to proudly show you why the Fediverse is top-notch.
I always wanted to learn to draw, but I never quite managed to create something cool. In the Fediverse, I frequently saw people learning things that seemingly brought them joy, and that motivated me so much that I started learning to create artworks about a year ago. I began with drawing and then moved on to vectors (which suit me better), and thanks to your feedback, I kept improving (at least that's what I believe).
And now comes a twist: thanks to the
community, this amazing artwork came to life. I've occasionally posted its development locally on this instance, and everyone who gave feedback has been immortalized in my artwork.
I present to you,
Ivy. A street kid from Night City, she helps you with every gig and hangs out with you at the place where the former legends of the CORTEX IMPLANT and HACKERS TOWN gang used to meet!
I spent two weeks working on this artwork, and every minute was a joy! So much fun that you can even get prints to hang in your space - if you’d like.
Musidora: The Bather 'At the Doubtful Breeze Alarmed', also known as The Bather, is a name given to four nearly identical oil paintings on canvas by English artist William Etty. The paintings illustrate a scene from James Thomson's 1727 poem Summer in which a young man accidentally sees a young woman bathing naked and is torn between his desire to look and his knowledge that he ought to look away.

She smiled inside, and the warmth of that emotion added a fluidity and grace to all her movements.

It wasn't a mighty and enormous river, one with a name that everyone recognized worldwide. But that didn't mean that it didn't make a difference as it flowed through its landscape, didn't have a purpose in its journey, or didn't deserve to exist.
Because, you know, Big isn't the only size tht rivers come in.

Guys, the sad man is here.
This is my oc, Lusstoni. I haven't drawn him since 2021 and the first thing he does when it's finally his turn is contemplating his poor life choices, oh well.
This drawing is inspired by a song (https://youtu.be/rW4pO4Etweg?si=97_4xkZx1aEgG4be)

I was listening to a podcast where the guest argued: when it comes to art, today's AI is like a tool, but in the future, maybe it could be an artist.
As he explained why, it became clear why I disagree with him. He defines "art" as a product that is valued by art critics and by consumers. I agree that AI generated content may become more common and broadly accepted in the future, but I don't think that's a good thing, and I wouldn't call it art!
I see art as more of an activity than a product. An artist does art. Whatever the output of that process is, valuable or not, is also called "art."
Am I saying only humans can make art? Not at all. But to be "art" it has to be self-expression. The artist must have something to say. As long as we are designing the AI, training it, and prompting it, then it will be a tool. Without us it has no initiative, no opinion, and no creative urge.
Ever since I was a little boy, I have always wanted to get to the top of the landscape, to see the full view, capture the panorama.
And for most of my life, I have lived in valleys . . .
But that's okay, because I love to hike, and there are many, many places to climb up to.
