Good day and welcome to The Grind and Bind Art Alchemist's Guild.

This is a dark place.

Most art will leave you feeling inspired, maybe even joyful — if not a little thoughtful. Not this art.

Most art makes people better, but this place can only make you worse, poorer, stained, and consumed by the craft.

All flavors are welcome to:

Be kind

Do onto others with kindness, curiosity and civility.

Please include images

Remember to attribute other's work, tag NSFW and Content Warnings if necessary, and describe with alt text for our differently sighted pals.

No AI*

This isn't a community for AI unless you've built it yourself and trained it on your own work.

Tags are Optional

Make 'em up if you need 'em.

On Self-Promotion

We all need to put food in the ferret bowl, but let's not talk money here. If someone asks to buy something, please take it to DMs.

!artmarket@lemmy.world and !artshare@lemmy.world are geared toward self promotion if you want to cross-post.

This is a new community, the structure and rules may change without notice. All things are ephemeral. Shoot Wren a DM if you have any ideas or want to help out.

A local, independently owned yarn store partnered with the Little Free Library Project to create free fibre libraries around the city, providing yarn, needles and other fibre arts supplies to the community.

Great link, thank you!

this is such a cool idea, more supplies for everyone!

although bonus points if it's done via a book swap or something similar, to avoid the $50 that the LFL project charges to use that name & be included on their map. it's maybe not a huge fee, but it makes their name a lie :P

I'm on the fence about that because I'm sure they do work that should be paid. On the other hand, it's not free.

I edited my post to include the link, it has a few resources for community grants and building plans.
