FYI fellow artists! Moleskine proudly used AI to make cover designs and/or promote their products. Truly disrespectful behaviour from a company that sells creative tools to real artists. https://cjleo.com/blog/moleskine-ai-lord-of-the-rings-collection-can-only-mock/ #Moleskine #artistsofmastodon #stationery #AIslop

I can’t claim that my notebooks have been used by Picasso and the like, but I can guarantee that the covers are 100% human illustrated and the product photography was shot in my actual garden that exists. (No, really!) If you like what you see, check out my wee shoppe 🦝 https://www.emseeitch.com/shop #stationery #pattern #wildlifeillustration #surfacepatterndesign

@emseeitch@mastodon.scot @jimp@masto.ai not to mention very average paper, and binding that won’t sit flat.

@emseeitch@mastodon.scot Everything for money! Including torpedoing your own customer base! People love that.

@emseeitch@mastodon.scot Disgusting thing to do. So, any recommendations for alternative paper planners and calendars? #stationery
