Hearkening back to https://mastodon.art/@Curator/109246167173621436 and even further back to https://mastodon.art/@Curator/108205845620055727 , for those with a fear of drawing, a motivational block, general art demotivation, ebbing creativity -

Draw a squiggle, post it. No pressure, no expectation. Just a squiggle.

The last time we had a surge of users arriving here from Birdsite, a lot of artists mentioned struggling with creative block from the constant pressure to not just post, but post *correctly*, and keep up with the inner workings of the algorithms. They had built up feelings of inadequacy or low artistic worth from having to deal with these things and push against walls to get any visibility. So we started #Mastosquiggles . Draw a squiggle, post it. No pressure, no expectation. Just a squiggle.

#FediSquiggles a worm friend
Edit, alt text didn't stick
@Curator saw a YouTube post discussing the damage the push to publish causes.
@Curator once I started I didn’t want to stop #FediSquiggles
@Curator
I found my markers that I used to use to draw on people
#FediSquiggles
@Curator I went on a #fedisquiggles journey by accident... (digital, clip studio paint). Sunglasses advised.

@Curator

Actually did my #FediSquiggles yesterday, but I was stuck in figuring out my ALT text for it, because I too don’t know what it is   I will try my best tho.
