A gouache illustration of a cedar waxwing, a brown-and-white bird with dramatic dark eye feathers, perched sideways on a branch full of bright red rose hips.

Something lovely to start the week! 🐙🏺❤️

Ancient clay pots with octopus decoration, made by artisans from Bronze Age Crete some 3,500 years ago!

Heraklion Archaeological Museum 📷 by me

#Archaeology
My photo collage shows four pottery vessels, all a creamy yellow in colour, with black painted decoration depicting underwater sea-life featuring lively stylised octopuses with writhing tentacles (arms), All on display at Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete. Top L - Minoan pithoid storage jar decorated in the “Marine Style” with wide-eyes octopus, argonauts, rocks, and coral. Rounded top tapering down to a narrower base. Short cyclindrical neck flaring out at the mouth with black wavy decoration reminiscent of waves. Loop handles attached to the shoulders of the body. Height 55 cm. From Zakros. 1500-1450 BC Top R - Minoan flask with a rounded body, short cyclindrical neck which flares at the rim, and two small curved handles attached between the top of the spout and the shoulders of the body. Decorated in “Marine Style” which depicts an almost cartoon-like octopus with wide eyes and sucker-lined tentacles which writhe around the vase. Other decorative sea-motifs include sea urchins, seaweed and rocks. Height 27cm. From Palaikastro, 1500-1450 BC Bottom L - alabastron, broad at the base, swelling outwards into a fuller belly before narrowing near the top with a very short cyclindrical neck and a wider flat rimmed mouth. Decorated in “Marine Style” with a wide-eyed octopus among rocks. From Knossos Little Palace, 1450-1370 BC Bottom R - krater with rounded body narrowing at the bottom towards the foot. Wide flaring mouth and rim with black painted wavy decoration, and two sturdy handles attached on each side between the top of the mouth and shoulders of the vessel. Decorated with a central very stylised wide-eyed octopus whose tentacles loop up and down around the body of the pot, 1370-1300 BC

Wanted to do another tiny Ed tonight. He's ready to introduce the crew to their brave, brave Captain.

#ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath
Small digital drawing of Ed from Our Flag Means Death. He's dressed in Stede's clothes and his hair is down around his face. His shirt and leggings are white and his breeches are dark orange. He's ready to stare down every crew member until they sufficiently clap.

shortcut to happiness

(I needed to do something for myself today, so I redid some ancient art. This one was originally done back in October 2022. Can't believe it's almost 300 years old!)

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. Ed is dipping Stede. He's got one arm wrapped around the back of his shoulders and his other hand is lifting Stede's into the air. They're both wearing robes. Ed's is dark teal but it has the birds of paradise design. Stede's is gold and has a floral panel design. They're smiling and laughing together. It's been a while since I called them gross. They're gross.

animal/vegetable guys based on the weird little dudes from the Luttrell Psalter for @madcatacres.bsky.social !!
Ed and Stede as animal/vegetable medieval manuscript creatures. Ed, on the left, is some sort of bird with fuzzy paws, a long neck, and a tail made out of leafy vines. He’s looking lovingly at Stede, who’s human on the top half, some sort of hairy beast on the back half, and with a big leafy tail.

Ed and Stede as anthropomorphic unicorns. Stede is a light blue unicorn with a pink horn and hooves, wearing an orange suit. Ed is a magenta unicorn with a gold horn and hooves, and is wearing a cropped purple suit.

they won the costume contest and immediately ran off to celebrate

#ofmd #ourflagmeansdeath #ofmdfanart
a digital drawing of ed and stede from ofmd. they are both dressed up in halloween costumes. ed is a cat and he’s wearing black and purple ears, a purple collar, a black crop top with purple fuzzy trim, fishnets, tight leather pants, and a cat tail. he has whiskers and a nose painted on his face and is wearing purple lipstick. stede’s costume is sort of an optical illusion. his head is dressed up as a goldfish with scales painted on his face and a fin over his ear. his head is in a fishbowl that looks like it’s resting on a table with a tablecloth and doily. he’s also wearing fishnets. ed is leaning over to kiss stede’s fish bowl, which already has lipstick kiss marks over it.
