Children in Western Art
Today, I wanted to blog about kids in western paintings. During medieval times, the only kid that was painted was baby Jesus. It was rare for him to resemble anything remotely human. These artworks were mainly done by the church. So, monks living in the mountains could not find children to model for them. Then again, they were not interested in realism. When the Renaissance came, children started appearing in somewhat realistic forms in art. They were mostly idealize. You only saw them more often in paintings of nobles and Kings. These high ranking folks wanted to show that their...
8 Pouring Acrylic Arts and Dry Neon Glow
I did new pouring arts. I did this time 8. I normally do 7 by 7. This time I had 2 extra panels. So, I decided to do 8 by 8 instead. I am trying to use up all my pouring paints. They have been rotting away in my studio for quite a bit. Once I am finished with my old paints, I am going to do ink arts instead. I will deal with things when I deal with it. There really isn’t much to say about my new art. I also photographed the dry version. This time the finished...
8 Great Disaster Movies
I wanted to tell you about some of my favorite Disaster movies. The first film is Armageddon. It is my favorite meteor movie. I like it better than the ice meteor. It also has a great soundtrack. Dante’s Peak has Sarah Connor and 007 together dealing with a volcano eruption. It has one stupid pointless death. A hag throws herself in acid, cause of reasons. It was truly pointless as all. Independence day has aliens attacking earth. The build up to the alien attack was great. The sequel was awful. Knowing is about a guy looking at a math code...
Hollow Knight Slipknot Fanart
There is a lot of hollow knight fans that listen to slipknot. I should know cause I did a poll. The metal band that won was slipknot. So, they are going to get the Hollow Knight treatment. This was a problematic fanart since it has a lot of characters. Slipknot is a pretty big band. So, I had to think a lot about their Hollow Knight counterparts. At least their outfits were easy enough. Just some nice purple. I like purple. Anyhow, I hope you like my new Hollow Knight fanart. There is going to be a video of this...
BJD Tiny in Gorgeous Green Dress
This is a nice bjd doll photoshoot. She is quite the joy to dress up. Since she is small, I can poses her in a lot of places. I was thinking of taking photos of her in the Christmas tree. She could be a little elf on a shelf. I still remember that time when I took her to Key West. It was fun photographing her in a lot of different places. She looks great just about anywhere. Folks would ask me about the doll every so often. It made quite the interesting conversation starter. At least, she is small...
