Good day and welcome to The Grind and Bind Art Alchemist’s Guild.

An artist’s community for the kind of people who don’t just paint, they scavenge pigment from rotten leftovers. It’s for potters who dig their clay from riverbeds, for weavers who spin their own wool (and probably know the name of fhe sheep,) it’s for collectors of pinecones and neat rocks who could definitely do something with them, some day.

All flavors are welcome. Talk about your materials, your processes, post art lore and memes, discuss art-adjacent topics, and show off your work for questions, praise and critique.

How it goes:

Be kind:

Do onto others with kindness, curiosity and civility.

Images:

All posts must have an image, even if you’re asking for advice. Post your cat, or your neighbour’s cat, whatever.

Please attribute appropriately. Tag NSFW and Content Warnings if necessary.

This isn’t a community for AI unless you’ve built it yourself and trained it on your own work.

Tags are Optional

[Show and Tell]— Show off your finished or mostly finished pieces, or your home made art-making materials such as paints, spun wool, a brick kiln, art software, drawing robots, bioplastics reactor, etc.

[Advice Wanted] — “How do you…?” and “Help, something exploded.”

[Info] — Free, online information on DIY media. Please include a webarchive link if a site asks for personal details.

[Discussion] — In the huddle of stained alchemists, debates and compliments are equally encouraged.

(Mods only) [Challenge] — Try something new or show off your niche skills.

[Misc] — Anything that doesn’t fit in the above categories but still vibes with the community. For memes, please add some words or a related link in your post.

On Self-Promotion

We all need to put food in the ferret bowl, but let’s not talk money here. If someone asks to buy something, please take it to DMs.

!artmarket@lemmy.world and !artshare@lemmy.world are geared toward self promotion if you want to cross-post.

This is a dark place.

Most art will leave you feeling inspired, maybe even joyful — if not a little thoughtful. Not this art.

This is a place of paint drinking gremlins with caustic burns on our hands and ink stains on our feet. A dark, damp basement smelling of bleach and burning and bioplastics, of empty wallets and ephemeral passions, of education, of science.

Most art makes people better, but this place can only make you worse, poorer, stained, and consumed by the craft.
