I successfully arted* today.
Boyf loves it and it's the first time I imagined a thing, made it with zero prep and it came out even better than I had imaged.

My sister sent this to me because she saw @inkscape was ranked best Adobe Illustrator alternative (free or otherwise) and knew I was a fan. There's some other gems in there as well, including some web based ones for those of us with classes using ChromeBooks.

Good morning, friends.
Today my 4th graders start adding art to their now functional games. There's a bunch of ways to do this but today I'm opting for sending them to https://pics4learning.com/ as the art there is all vetted, includes easy to copy citations, and is licensed to be free to use for #Education purposes.
Because saying "I got it from Google" gets you a zero in my class. Artists shouldn't steal from artists.
Article: Midjourney Founder Admits to Using a ‘Hundred Million’ Images Without Consent
Copyright is a method for enforcing consent.
Stop using #AI art generators. Their programmers seem to universally not understand what consent means.
Article: You’ve got a new camera. Now what? Part two

Most photo guides I find online assume you already have $2000+ in gear and know all the vocabulary to go with it.
It's nice to find one going over the basics, many of which apply even if you aren't using a DSLR or mirrorless camera.
Article: Using Positive and Negative Space for Composition in Photography
https://fstoppers.com/education/using-positive-and-negative-space-composition-photography-622185
There are a lot of ways for a photographer to make a composition. Although some won’t like to accept it, the rule of third often fits quite nicely. But no matter what you use as a basis for composition, we always use negative space. Most of us just don’t realize it. I wrote an article about the origin of the rule of third and the golden ratio for composition techniques. That article is not about right or wrong or if you should use one of these rules or the other. It’s for understanding how these popular rules came into existence. You can find the article by following this link.
