AestrumArt

In light of the new update meant to rob artists and sell AI garbage to unknowing/uncaring users of the site, I am officially throwing in the towel. I got my bones on DA, it helped foster my love for art and I've met MANY long time friends here. This account is 5 years old, but I've been here much longer than that. I'm tired of my art getting stolen, used, or taken by others. It is a fact that if I want to share I open myself up to whoever is out there, but I feel by closing my DA I can reduce that. Their practices are unethical and they have no respect for artists or casual users.

Changes: - I'll be on other platforms to post my art, here's where you can find me

- I'll still be checking in here, just not posting - All my art is going to have giant, ugly watermarks on it now
