For that hybrid template are we okay to save the image and then post your like example template (with credit tagging) so we have our own post so your notifications aren't flooded?
Wanna create some Pokémon hybrids? Here’s the template I have been using for mine!
Select, randomly generate, or let your followers choose seven Pokémon and use their attributes to create a Pokémon hybrid!
The hybrids featured here were created using this template and a random selection of Pokémon.
You can tag me or use the hashtag if you want me to see your creations! Have fun!

Hi!
Thank you very much for stopping by my table and for buying something! I really appreciate the support.
And thank you so much for the nice message and for telling other people about my book! It made me really happy. :)
Not really all that helpful, but twitter has consistently been burning down, so in a way you could potentially see this as a less of a hit through that? It's still a huge blow, but the platform itself might not live this hurdle out anyhow. (Unlike tumblr). Maybe that's some solace at least.
In regards to marketing, I wonder if any more entrepreneurs would be willing to take your art on their walls to help you advertise or if you could make some deals with places that could sell your art. (For example Metkunen has some jewellery and the such from smaller entrepreneurs, but they might not be the optimal target for art though.) Just throwing ideas out there. Would Urumi, Lukulaari or even Viiden Tähden Leffadivari be interested?
I only just saw this and fortunately the situation has been resolved by now.
I feel like as long as Twitter is still standing people at large will be using it and thus it’s important to stay on there. Many alternatives have been popping up but I don’t know if they would be a good fit for me or if they would live long enough for me to invest my time in them at this point.
Seeking new retailers/partners is sound advice and it is something I will want to eventually do. At the moment I have my things at Metkunen and Laitapuoti and some of my works are displayed at Lategame. I haven’t had time to bring in any new stuff in a good while, that’s on my to-do list. I will need to schedule some time for retailers in the near future!
I’m in the middle of a kitchen renovation and I learned this morning that not only am I going to have to endure living in the middle of a storage without a kitchen for two weeks, my hallway cabinets get renewed as well, MEANING I need to relocate all of my packing supplies, among other things I store there, to ?????
Since I didn’t host a sale this spring I’m doing it now so you can all help me relocate some of my stock supplies to a more remote location. Permanently.
This morning I woke up to an email saying my Twitter account is suspended.
The reason: ” It breaks our rules regarding evading suspension”.
Apparently this is a bug in their system that has affected several accounts already and no appeals are going through or getting reviewed by real people. Some more info here.
In other words, there is nothing I can do.
This sucks especially much because I was finally seeing some growth on my account and actually getting some use out of it. Despite all the hurdles I’m still trying to grow my art business and unfortunately I need social media for that. Twitter just taking one of my tools away unfairly and doing nothing about it is just a big “fuck you”.
If anyone has any suggestions on what to do or similar experiences, let me know.
I didn’t think I would feel this devastated over losing my Twitter account.
Update: I seem to have gotten my account back.
Scary how artists are so dependent on social media.

OLD GODS is a collection of illustrations about Finnish wildlife and the myths and beliefs related to different animals. The artwork explores the mystical nature of many animals and portrays each as as ancient Finn could have seen them.
This zine features 33 ink illustrations, each accompanied by a written introduction to Finnish mythology and folklore related to the animals. The book also includes a step-by-step process for one of the paintings from start to finish.
I’m super happy with how this turned out and so proud that I was able to bring this project to life!
I’m currently running a sale on my Etsy! All zines, prints, and merch is 20% off now through Sunday! If you don’t mind a few aesthetic imperfections (small flaws in the foil/print) you can get a B-grade copy at 11€!
Here’s a Pokémon that I thought I would never draw but here we go.
With designs like this I feel like I can’t make things too realistic because then the soul of the design vanishes.
My angle here was alien-dinosaur-deer-taken-over-by-weird-space-crystals.
