I’ve been working on some little charms and pendants inspired by marginalia creatures from illuminated manuscripts.
I could have sworn I posted them already. Or at least had them in the queue but it looks like they disappeared
They’re a lot of fun.
Just some silly little guys
These are all porcelain fired to cone 5ish, there was 1 casualty that exploded in the kiln and you can see a few remnants stuck on here and there. But overall I think these were a successful first go at it.
i appreciate how looking at the comments section of posts and blocking anyone who seems annoying (if they were audacious enough to be annoying on someone else’s post, they may someday on mine, after all) does inevitably result in coming across entirely new comment sections that have already been beautifully curated, like so:
writing omegaverse CPR because apparently that’s how my brain expresses itself these days
I didn’t realize this referred to a ship and was super confused at why omegaverse cardiopulmonary resuscitation would different from non-omegaverse, like oh no what does the knot do now
people who learned about greek mythology due reasons that DONT involve having read percy jackson at 12 freak me out, like what the FUCK was going on in your life that you found out that zeus turned into a pigeon to woo his wife like HOW
wikipedia tells me that the lightning thief came out when I was in my final year at university. they just taught us about greek myths at school, so I started learning about that around maybe 7 or 8?
it just dawned on me that there are probably people on tumblr who came to fandom through tumblr and tumblr is the only fannish platform they know how to interact on and nobody new is ever going to pick up all the old, old catchphrases from fandom wank ever again
occasionally I am struck dumb by the sublime beauty of the world in the small moments, you know?
egg

hey I hope you dont mind I also painted your egg
i also painted the egg hope that’s ok

I love how this shows how real artists drawing a thing aren’t just representing the thing, but showing you what THEY found beautiful in it.
hope I’m not too late to paint egg! watercolors 🙂
i too have drawn the egg
heres my egg
Love every single one of these eggs. No yeah of course it’s still okay to write your vampire story or whatever, even if a thousand people have done it before you. Your art will still be uniquely yours and people will find something fresh in your perspective. Paint your egg.
