Thank you!

Thank you!! The ink rabbit hole is real!! (And so delightful)

Thank you! Me too!! ❤️❤️❤️

Not quite - account scraping may have already happened. but publicly, several news outlets have reported that they’re not training the AI with private posts or messages. I still don’t trust them and still plan to post using Glazed images.

I don’t trust them either, that’s why I’m using Glaze (this particular image glazed well! Scans do not glaze as well)

The NYT reported that it does (for future posts) but i also don’t trust Meta and that’s why i used Glaze as well.

My Instagram account is now private because i do not consent to Meta’s use of my art & words to train their generative AI products. HEY. I have an art show next weekend: Saturday, July 13th at Giant Robot, Los Angeles. 2062 Sawtelle Blvd. 6-9pm. Hope to see you there. This image was Glazed.

Omg lollllll THAT was our first interaction?????!!!!!! Lollllllllll

I got to attend the American Library Association’s conference #ALAAC24 — *so* inspiring! Librarians and teachers are stars. The love of reading all around; quality time with my agency, #kidlit author/illustrator friends & editors. All the books! Can ALA just *always* be in San Diego?

Can’t wait to read it! Love that you are doing your preorder campaign with Bel Canto — such a great bookstore!

Completely agree. I haven’t posted (outside of stories) in over a month, just feeling deeply discouraged by it all.

I see so many friends & illustrators leaving Instagram. It feels like the right move for all the horrible AI reasons (and it’s been ages since i felt like my posts had any visibility anyway) but it also feels like a loss of a creative community and like starting over in a defeated way.

What great news!!

Thank you so much for sharing it! I hope stores & libraries start carrying it!

Thank you, Kate!!!

Home from a trip visiting friends. It’s been years since i did this kind of tour: stayed at friends houses, did what they do. If i’d stayed at hotels, I’d never hear the voices my friends use with their pets or see the plants in their gardens or the colors of their socks. Their lovely lives.

Thank you!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you brings me so much joy. I’ll keep drawing them if you keep sharing them! 🐈

Meaning if you keep sharing cats! (Not my artwork!) just realized it sounded confusing!!

SO ARE YOU!

This is the best use of the internet, always and forever. ❤️ we can lift each other up.

We can lift each other up. 🫶

What a kind thing to say, thank you!! I wish animals were here for so, so much longer than they are. Sending love, still. It’s such a hard loss to bear!

Please know you are loved and appreciated every day! and please reach out anytime. I consider you a friend of mine now!! ❤️❤️

That’s a great idea! It’s also searchable page & my shop on my site is too!
