"Normal? What is normal? To do only what the masses do? What is the benefit of that? And what is the problem with adopting a custom that is abnormal if it has no negative effect on the world at large?" — Ichihara Yūko

Hi, wow, it's been a while. ^^;;

I'm not returning to regularly post here - mostly I'm just showing proof of life that this account is mine and not a bot by making a recent post on my only remaining fully-public socmed account. But while I'm here, I figured I might as well let you all know how to contact me if you want to get back in touch. 💜

The only socmed site I actively use nowadays is Discord. You can find me there under the username twilitblossom (unfortunately, twilightblossom and its variants were already taken by the time my username got converted from the old [name]#[four-digit-number] system).

I'm primarily into danmei (Chinese boy's love) stories now, so if I know you from a different fandom, just know I may not be as into it as I used to be. But I'd be happy to catch up and chat about other things, too!

waves 👋 See you around!

So I got a little hyped for Nightborne and designed a murder wine mom to be buddies with some other murder wine moms for the rebellion. \o/ She doesn’t have a name yet but hopefully soon she will. LOL

Psyche by painter Lyndon Andrews

Here is the artist’s commentary from www.lyndonandrews.blogspot.com

The inspiration for this painting, Psyche, comes from Greek myth. Psyche was a beautiful princess who incurred the wrath of Aphrodite.

Psyche means soul in Greek and also butterfly.  The initial inspiration for the butterflies in my paintings comes not from that, but funnily enough from a bookI read on Wedgwood.  The potters would place butterflies over flaws made in the firing of an item. These would disguise the imperfections.  In time the meaning of the butterflies has changed for me, in my paintings.

I like the dichotomy of the lightness of the butterflies and the weight of the models. And how it plays with your mind, in the sense that your values slip between the two. They also create the sense of space that the model occupies and also pin them to the composition.
