There's one week to go till OFMD2, so it's your last chance to read my slowburn reunion epic before it's entirely contradicted! 304k of healing, action, comedy, and just so, so much pining. My god, these bitches are in LOVE!

I even keep commissioning art for it! By @lauravian, @loathsome-cowboy, @wenskiii, @cosmicyeehaws, and @y2jenn!

I think there should be a resurgence in porcelain knicknacks and figurines.

The popularity of vinyl blind box sets and 3D printed super hero busts across demographic groups that would otherwise mock Precious Moments and china cabinets full of blown glass hummingbirds and cut crystal puppies shows that people just love having little guys with no purpose but to stand around and be looked at, there's just a range of rather strong opinions about style and subject matter.

The next generation is almost certainly going to find what you love bafflingly odd at best, a hideous dust catcher at worst, so why settle for yet more cheap plastic junk to clog landfills and shed microplastics when you can have "heirloom pieces" that smash dramatically when called upon, erode beautifully when subjected to the sea, and are a continuation of our 30,000+ year tradition of little clay people that bring us delight?

if tumblr dies you will never be able to find me again. this is my last stop. when the track runs out I'm just gonna hitch my stick and bindle up over my shoulder and head off into the horizon

The Lady and the Unicorn  is the modern title given to a series of six tapestries created woven in Flanders from wool and silk, from designs drawn in Paris around 1500. The set, on display in the Musée de Cluny in Paris, considered one of the greatest works of art of the Middle Ages in Europe.

"According to my only wish."

"The lady with the unicorn. Hearing"

"The lady with the unicorn. Touch"

"The lady with the unicorn. Smell." 

"The lady with the unicorn. Vision"

"The lady with the unicorn. Taste"

I made my lovely wife very bored and the security guard very nervous to take closeup photos of these tapestries

look at the transparent outer sleeves of the Lady in the pavilion scene:

ENHANCE

alternating white rows with color to create transparency- clever

doing that while maintaining an underlying pattern, and shading folds in the transparent fabric? Absolute peak of mastery

Ooooh that's magnificent! And the shading on the little pearls! What skill!
