A photo in a museum gallery showing two bronze figures on plinths, they're both posed with one foot far in front of the other, leaning forward and reaching with one hand, giving the impression they're running

Two runners excavated from the Villa Papyri in Pompeii in 1754. They're from 1st C BCE, and thought to be Roman replicas of lost ancient greek replicas πŸ‘πŸ›οΈπŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ #MuseumBums

Promoting @pepperraccoon.com because it is nearly the festive part of the year, their range of goodies is very cool, and I am obsessed with the raven pins they sell. I must purchase more as I keep giving them away.

Today's advice from your Goth Auntie
-Unclench your jaw, please. Now take three deep breaths.
-You deserve to be the version of yourself that makes you happiest.
-I don't care why you summoned it, put that demon back. NO DON'T LICK IT.

Love, Auntie Jilli

a light blond golden retriever puppy wearing an olive green beanie sits on a picnic table in a park. the trees in the background are green and orange with fall foliage. his floppy green beanie is pulled down on his noggin, pressing a line of his fluffy forehead fur forward, and gluing his ears to the sides of his face. he looks ever so slightly downcast that no one understands him. photo credit wat.ki on instagram

Art. Black and white drawing of a snail made of abstract shapes and lines. The snail is moving to your left at...well...a snail's pace. It's shell curls around in a nice tight spiral, and it's antennae are up ready for action.

Art. Black and white drawing of an otter's, drawn with abstract shapes and lines. The otter is looking at you pretty hard, and it has a fish in it's mouth. Its whiskers are extremely whiskery. Surely the otter has a name, but otters keep such things a secret. So we'll have to call it Velmaroxe for now. Water curls around it, and there is a title next to it that reads: "The Otter: Friendly Water-Sausage"

A reminder that I don't just draw maps and abstract, Rorschach-esque art! I also take commissions for specific drawings! Here are a few examples, and then one more on the next post in the thread.

If you would like to commission a drawing, here's my website:

Medieval painting of a ship on the water, against an orange background. The ship has one sail, and it is being blown all out of shape by the winds, which you can see personified behind the ship. They look like little angry fuzzballs with faces, blowing furiously. The ship is atop a the crest of a good sized wave; this along with the wind suggest a squall. The front of the ship has been carved into something like a griffin's head.

The ship carries six people. The man at the back -- we'll call him Vambrohzha --  is controlling a long steering board, or an oar that he's using for a rudder. His moth is slack, and he looks distressed by the state of the sail. The other people on the boat seem uninterested, but do seem to be arguing with each other. Perhaps one of them was using loaded dice.

Below the ship, in the water, are several fish, including an upside down eel.

You are expecting me to make an Incredible Hulk joke here, but this hulk is wholly credible.

Friends, it's Friday. You deserve a little treat. An eel history treat.

So enjoy this 12th C. image of a medieval hulk. It may be the earliest illustration of one that we have. But ALSO there's a saucy upside-down eel in the water. And that's the important thing!

a higher angle of Boksil. a small yellow pillow rests beside her for scale, and her eyes are closed peacefully as she rests swaddled under a white blanket, looking very cozy.
