Evergreen for how I operate:

β€œQueer' not as being about who you're having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but 'queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.” πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Is it colza? In English it's called rapeseed. Smelling when you sneeze is commonβ€”it's caused by beneficial bacteria already in your nose producing lactate, which you can smell. It's always there, but sneezing aerosolizes it a bit.

He's a rescue pigeon, and he was there as an art model, if that makes it better.

Planetary astrophysicist by day, space artist by night. The year is 2022 & my PhD research inspires me to create a giant multi-spectral Jupiter painting. Oh shit, did I just invent my own style? I decide to leave academia & take a chance on my art.

Hey I know it's trendy right now to face your books out on the shelf to show off the covers, but books are not designed for this. Books are designed to be pressed against other books. If you set them face-out they'll warp, and you'll destroy the binding. Friendly tip to save your books.

I was watching a travel video, and for a quick second in the video, I spied a beautiful cable-stayed bridge, and I spent the next ten minutes identifying it. It's the SkyBridge, a cable-stayed railroad bridge in Vancouver. Look at this beautiful bridge:

A watercolor painting of a satyr embracing a young man from behind,  gently peeling apart the man's flesh on his chest. Birds emerge from the opening in the man's chest. The man reaches one hand to back to caress the satyr's face, the other presses the satyr's hand to his chest. There's some circular celtic knotwork designs on the borders. The overall colors are warm golds and browns.

Finally finished this up! It's done in watercolor, gouache, and color pencils. I know I should try to render it in more detail but I'm not sure I want to. I like the texture being able to be textures. Maybe that will change in the future. For now, though, I like it πŸ˜…

YouTube video by Mike Oldfield - Topic Ommadawn Pt.1 (1975 Stereo Mix)

Been on a big Ommadawn kick for the past like. Eight days. This whole album sounds like waiting for ice to melt. From 1975, so Mike would have been 21 when he composed this, which blows my mind a little bit. But that's autism don't ya know. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_ig...

That's the best part tbh. It makes it so much more Lynchian and surreal to just have the foley art and the weird hum.
