Trying one more time to get this new personal piece in the hands of those that care for and support my work. The whole promo leading up to and release period of this print, despite everything I did, completely flopped last month.
Meta and it’s new A.I scraping terms has meant record low visibility for us Human Artists. I think this, as well as my pricing and the overall economy right now are all factors in the defeat I had, which I’ve never experienced before.
Speaking to peers and contemporaries of mine since then, some with over 150k followers and a once sustainable businesses, have shockingly had the same experiences. Just to illuminate how small business are being affected by the current climate and economy.
So with that, and an overwhelming feeling of trepidation, I’m giving this one more hoorah. I put so much love and time into my work and I don’t want to give up fighting.

This isn’t a pity play, I’m just being real and trying to spread awareness of the struggle us creatives are having right now. But whether you buy a print, or just follow our work. You are vital and I want to let you know how grateful I am for the prints that have succeeded in varying degree’s over the years. After this I will be taking break in general and weathering the storm until the climate and this algorithmic hellscape improves, if ever.
All the best
