I was hired by the Brand, Design and Communications Agency Whistlejacket to produce illustrations for the WRAP "nudging strategy for reducing consumption of single-use disposable cups" in collab with the Swedish EPA.

As a #Vegan is there a food which you never used to like the omnivore version of, but love the Vegan option?
I will start...
Quiche!

@npub1hpc…hjn3 I flip flop between thinking it's a good idea, and being scared rigid at the very thought of going through the process of a medical diagnosis lol.

@npub1hpc…hjn3 Over the years, I've been prescribed with various types of SSRIs for anxiety which just make me a lot worse. Recently, I've taken online Autism tests and quizzes and always score very highly, way above the threshold. I have been advised to apply for a formal assessment, but I wonder if there's really any point 🤔

@npub10pr…qn7d @npub1y58…hhfk I would LOVE to see Tokyo Pop now that it's been re-released... however, it looks like the re-release is confined to the US for some reason.

@npub1typ…c8hh I like weird, but the generative stuff just feels ‘off' to me, and not in a good way.
I mean, the perspective, sizing, and OMG what's up with the horse's teeth?! They all look wrong even to me, and I'm a 2d illustrator, so I don't do this kind of stuff. This should only be used as a sketch and given to a real artist to complete.
Is it interesting, yes... but I would rather look at weird covers made by humans than generative stuff.
Just my opinion, I’m probably wrong YMMV etc lol ✌️

@npub1xwc…ze8u When using Amazon, I always try to get my deliveries to go to my local Amazon Locker. It's not only better for the environment (as they are going there anyway), but also more convenient for me as I can collect the items at my leisure.
