On tonight’s Mosaic Ark, the ladies were joined by Aisha Fajardo of Grimmer Arts. Aisha has years of experience illustrating high fantasy, and her artwork in this area is captivating, but she was looking for an opportunity to create something with deeper meaning, something that wasn’t just more “elves and orcs.” Happily for us, this led her to become our illustrator for Draco Alchemicus, Act II: The Court. The ladies talked with her about her process for illustrating and about how she became an illustrator. We also talked about the state of the art world in general (it’s bad) and the dawn of AI generated art (it’s worse!) But this stream was no pessimist’s party; we all have hope that real art and poetry created by real people still has a future. Let us know in the comments what you think about the future of art after you see what Aisha has drawn for us! —Streamed July 18, 2025
