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.

I sewed the wings on upside down.

I bought the pattern from https://www.annwoodhandmade.com/ — a site I previously posted here with all her free patterns and project ideas.

Luckily, the pattern is there. If you can't afford it, shoot me a message and I'll send you the PDF.

I definitely didn't want to make anyone cry today, but thank you.
