Music in Art History
Today, I wanted to show you some paintings about music. Folks have been painting musicians since the time of the pyramids. This tradition continued with the Greeks. The Greeks had more than one God of music. Apollo had his harp. Pan his flute. In medieval times, the violin and the lute came into the scene. Most of the music scenes depicted angels playing instruments. Then again, medieval art was usually made by monks. The piano was a later development during the Renaissance period. However, the lute continued to be the most popular instrument depicted in art. In Spain, the Guitar...
My 9 Favorite video Game Vampires
I am surprised I was not able to make it 10. There are really not a lot of vampire games that I have played. The first one I wanted to mention is Alucard. He is the poster child of the Castlevania vampires. He went through an anime phase too. He showed up under a different name in the bloodstained series. If you steal his books, he will bite you. LOL. Nightmare Grimm is a Flea. Fleas have circus. Fleas bite and drink blood. Therefore, he is a vampire. He also does the bat thing whenever you hit him too hard....
Fish Ink Art Spring
I did some new ink art. I decided to paint Fishes. I was bored of painting flowers. So, I decided to make a different type of picture. I need to remember to get more rubbing alcohol. I used it to thin out my paints. I am just stretching the pigments to the absolute limit. They still look nice as all. There is going to be a video of all these arts in my Artsy Sister Youtube channel. Do not forget to give a like and subscribe. The fishes are tropical. I do not know their names. I just looked up...
Hollow Knight Evanescence and Aerosmith Fanart
I was thinking of what to make as far as Hollow Knight fanart. While I was brainstorming, I was listening to Evanescence. It was then when it all clicked. I figured that I might as well combine the two. It seemed like an interesting project to make. Plus, It has been a while since I drew multiple figures. Plus, my slipknot fanart did pretty well. So, why not draw as Hollow Knight characters a different band I like. It is a good thing, Evanescence only has 5 core members, instead of 10 like the other band. Anyhow, there is going...
New BJD Doll Arrived Today
I got a new bjd doll today. It is a ring doll. He is a big chunky boy. It was pretty difficult to drag him into the living room. When you get a 70 cm doll, it doesn’t seem so big. It was a different story once I got him out of the box. It was an interesting experience to set him up. I even did a livestream of me struggling to put him together. I ended up needing assistance for installing the entire armor. I thought the glove hand was movable. I guess it was just a solid piece...
