With fascism on the rise, venerating a polite decent debate club culture is actually useful to the fascists, being polite with fascists just normalises them. Call em racists, call em fascists, call em wankers and dont pretend they have a point

The silk kurotomesode's design reflects the influence of classical Japanese sumi-e traditions, evident in the fluid, gestural quality of the cloud formations and the organic flow of the composition. The dragon features a scaled body that shimmers with golden metallic threads. 1926-1940, Japan

In celebration of the recent Hunter’s Moon🌙

Cult of Diana Altar Prayer Card

Lunar goddess of the wildnerness,fertility & the hunt, Diana’s Ephesus temple is one of the 7 wonders & her cult is considered almost as old as Rome itself

Might make this a series of all the Orphic hymns

#art 🎨 #pagan

Altar prayer card for the goddess Diana. A rectangular card has a black border with parts of the Orphic hymn for Diana surrounding it as a border in white text. In the bottom right are twin arrows over a crescent moon representing her and Apollo. In the bottom left and top right are white outlined 8 point stars. Inside the border is a marble shockwave black and grey pattern with white outlining that forms an arch at the top with lining to look like columns on both sides. In the middle is a stag skull with painted antlers of a diamond and star pattern. Behind the skull are smaller 8 point stars and cloud ripples. Above the skull is a scraggly branch of queen Anne’s lace with small dots above. In the top corners are two constellations for Sirius as her hunting dogs and Roman numerals for 13 and 8 for the date of the Nemoralia festival.

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

Screen cap of parodic version of William Blake's "The Tyger" that begins:
Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright
(Not sure if I spelled that right)
What immortal hand or eye
Could fashion such a stripy guy?
What the hammer that hath hewn it
Into such a chonky unit?
Did who made the lamb make thee,
Or an external franchisee?

This October I am going to use the #SpacetoberChallenge prompts on IG as inspiration for sharing both new work & space art from my portfolio. Starting with my #linocut portrait of Félicette for the prompt “launch”. 🧪🐡 #histsci

Félicette was a Parisian stray tuxedo cat who was recruited into the 🧵

My linocut portrait of Félicette, a Parisian stray tuxedo cat who was recruited into the French space program. It's printed by hand, in black ink on pearlescent Japanese paper, 6" x 8". She peers from the side of the image, facing the viewer with the electrode on her head, the Véronique rocket, paw print, her name and starry sky behind her.

Before I started working on Toads of the Bayou, I experimented with #PixelDailies
Here's one example (2022 - Symbiotic)

It might seem cheesy to some, but when I was a teenager, I loved Fight Club back then, and I still consider it to be one of my favorite movie

Dentist just love to imagine fillings. I go to the dentist like once a decade lol and every time they're all "you're gonna need so many filings!" And then they look in my mouth and are like "oh, everything is good actually, this is surprising..." and I know by surprising they mean disappointing c':
