warm up doodle of my wife
My train was late. AGAIN.
I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad
In case you're curious here's what I mean.
Renaissance(distinct lines, stability and the individual man):
Baroque (bold, chaotic, dramatic):
Romantic(romanticize the simple hard working life):
Do you see the difference?
this post has re-wired my brain in the best way
I found god in a hopeless place
The study on the left inspired the color story of the piece on the right
This opening completely altered my brain chemistry as a kid and I've never been the same since.
it's so BOUNCY and FUN, even without words you can tell what moves each Pokemon is uses (Girafargig going for a Stomp, Butterfree using Sleep Powder/Gust) as well as visually showing how Quagsire is immune to electricity so Pikachu has to improvise, the personality/attitudes of each Pokemon really shines (Cyndaquil kinda just yawning like "OK, I'm awake, let's go" before immediately being able to shove off the Mankey, and then letting loose a big Flamethrower like it's nothing, just so casual), this is just a Battle for fun they aren't trying to knock out each other's entire teams so Ash and Lisa are happy to just have a tie at the end, the Pokemon use the environment of the playground as they Battle, both Trainers cheer and cuddle with their Pokemon through it all... it really is BEAUTIFUL
Just to add on to this sentiment, Lisa's not exactly a major character in the film right? This battle happens with her just kinda crossing paths with Ash and co, and then she leads them to the town where all the eventful stuff is actually happening. And yet despite that, they take the time here to clearly show her own attitude and that she has her own relationships with her pokemon. The specific ways she gets excited when they're doing well and disappointed when they lose their part of the fight, it really gives the impression that she's someone with just as full and eventful a journey as Ash has had.
