Même si t'as changé le muffler, chromé tes roues et que tu fais tes stops comme il faut, conduire un char volé c'est pas "éthique". A group of very vocal and very organized local militants have fought for years to preserve the Steinberg woods, located in a gigantic vacant lot in my neighborhood. A highway ramp for trucks coming in and out the port was set to be built there, an absolute heresy in these times. After 8 years of battle, they... actually won! The woods will be protected. I did the first poster to help their campaign a year and a half ago. It was only fitting to do an updated version after the announcements <3 I'm gonna be real for a moment: since ditching the initial big platforms (Twitter, Instagram, Etsy), I've had a hard time getting people into my online print shop. At the same time, I've never had such a wonderful body of work, great prints, books, illustrations and stickers. Also, I LOVE making prints, yo! It is what is but I hope it picks up again during the holidays. Has anyone else felt a dip in merch sales? Anyway, rant over! If you wanna check it out, it's here! http://shop.cabfolio.com  Four days late but my August newsletter is out! It's a recap of what I drew, did, listened to and enjoyed in August. Always free, always cool : https://cabtastic.substack.com/  @cabtastic Ah y'e nice ton self-portrait dans le style de l'auteur de Dragonball, ca fait un bout qu'on a pas access a internet, j'avais manque ton update du mois dernier.   @cabtastic This is perfectly splendid. 🥰🙏✨ What kind of sandwich is that, if you don't mind me asking? 🤔 My June newsletter is out! This month, I drew a bunch of pissed of birds, I tried to dress up and I got salty about Bad Corporations. Read it here! I purged my Instagram gallery and posted these as a reminder that there is life outside those platforms. It got a lot more traction than I thought and I think people are as fed up as I am. Anyway, I'm reposting this here because believe it or not, I'm more excited than ever to be sharing art online--where it matters! @cabtastic Good move! I recently opened an IG account, because people were urging me to do so, but things are really sluggish there. A lot more sluggish than for example here. Lowkey working on maintaining my own wesbite, adding links to cool things, updating my portfolio, blogging, writing, tinkering. It doesn't get much traffic and it's fine--it's there for when I need it. @cabtastic This is one of my goals for this year as well. I would like to start working on this when I finish my current book. At the same time, I'm purging my Instagram account of most of my finished illustrations. No one will miss any of the art that was on there and frankly, Meta can go to hell a million times. @cabtastic @cabtastic yeah this is a good one. Cutting through the hype of AI can be so frustrating I've been drawing a doodle for my monthly newsletter, as well as my events/conventions announcements for close to two years now. Since I'm drawing the first one for 2024, here's a look back at all the Cab doodles from 2023 :) You can subscribe to the Cab Post, my free newsletter, by going on my profile. It's all there! @cabtastic Master study based on a photo by Micheal Carlson. This is like meditation to me. #MastoArt #architecture #illustration A little while ago, I wanted to redo the character bio pics for the Utown website. I was going for a kind of "candid polaroid shot" look but rendering realistic colors is a lot of work. I'm probably not gonna finish this but it was fun :P @cabtastic Me rappelle, avant quand j'etais sur instagram je suivais un account qui faisant des dessins avec un rendering un peu photo realiste comme tu decris, avec des shots de la vie fictive d'un de ses OC... jai toujours touver ca cool comme idee :)... 12
