Writers: do you want your writing to go viral / get popular?

Yes, I would love that!

Yeah, there’d be some negatives to that but I ultimately still want it

Neutral / I don’t care if that ever happens

Cool in theory, but I think I’d actually dislike it in practice

No, I think I actively don’t want that

No, I would absolutely hate that!

Unsure / I don’t know

Other answer / it’s complicated

See results / I don’t write

Jack Vettriano

RIP Jack

From Wikipedia

"(born Jack Hoggan, 17 November 1951 – 1 March 2025) was a Scottish painter, known for his distinctive figurative style, often depicting scenes of romance, mystery, and nostalgia.

His works, characterized by cinematic composition and atmospheric lighting, frequently depict elegantly dressed figures in ambiguous or intimate settings. Despite achieving commercial success, Vettriano's work has been met with mixed critical reception, with some art critics dismissing it as overly sentimental or populist. Nevertheless, he has remained a highly popular artist, with his paintings commanding significant prices at auction."

OP ART & POP ART 🥫 love, ur local art mom 🩵

disclaimers and more information under the cut ✂️

hi I’m annemarie and I’m an art historian! not adjuncting for the first time in five years was rly hard for me so I threw some slides together so I could still (sort of) teach the same material as my language of art class but a) I threw these slides together for instagram so space was/is limited and b) language of art is a ten week run through art history so I’m presenting only the most accessible information here – there’s so much more to this art period and to these artists! – please don’t expect it to be comprehensive and please do ask if you have any questions!

oh p.s. my first ever class of art history students came up with the name ‘art mom’ for me at the end of the quarter and yes it does make me cry if I think about it too long thanks so much for asking
