Saw all your stuff on all the minor Elpis NPCs and I’m so happy finding another person who adores them! I’ve been making so many little stories up of the npcs in my head. Also Kleon is awesome, nice finding more people who like him.

loooove them sm i need to make more art of the silly friend group ive made up of them in my head as well. erichthonios is there to balance out all the goofy elpis shenanigans but also enable it slightly

It is important to remember that as far as art history goes, that it is patently untrue that realism only became humanly possible with the development of linear perspective in Europe thanks to Brunelleschi (a commonly repeated myth in lower division art education), and that examples of artistic realism as we know it today has long existed in many, much older art traditions. West African arts cultures are a great example to work off of. (i.e. Yoruba)

This Yoruba bust (or Ife Head) is dated to the 12th-14th centuries.

This misunderstanding also deeply, unfortunately, and inaccurately mischaracterizes traditional arts in African cultures as being “less developed” for being more stylized, as if they cannot figure out realism due to difficulty (lmao?), which simply is not the case.

I don’t often make original posts like this, but I’ve rarely seen this addressed outside of art history land, and it really bothers me!!!

mesmerised by this random photo taken by the hiking club I'm part of. the soft cool tones and radiant warm tones, the composition and lighting...

I think this is the best part of this photo. the point of that entire trip was to find and read an old storybook that they knew was at a particular hut. he genuinely is reading it out loud to the others. I can't remember what it was about, but this scene is the cozy and well deserved reward of a wild endeavour through rugged terrain. I think that's beautiful [:

if you have cool weird parents you don’t get credit for being cool and weird. if ur mom raises lizards and teaches interpretive dance and named you Genesis Wizard you had an unfair advantage and, after adjusting for inflation, you’re a normie
