Here Are Some Sculptures From Antiquity That Fill Me With Delight.
Here are some sculptures from antiquity that fill me with delight.
1-3: The Guennol Lioness (aka Beefy Furry of Old)
4: Alabaster statue of who is presumed to be Ishtar, goddess of fertility, love, war, sex, power, and destruction, as well as the planet Venus.
5-6: Sumerian couple. Anime is forever.
7-8: Reaction images.
9: A Hylian shopkeeper.
10: The Emperor Constantine, lesser known Disney prince.
The great thing, humanity has been able to create pretty accurate, representational art for a long time. It’s possible these were stylistic choices.

Got a new friend for my studio. He’ll be a good exercise for students.
Hey internet, did you know I have a dog? It’s not like I ever draw him or anything.
Had a studio purge today. I’m throwing out five big bags of old art that’s unsellable, embarrassing, low quality, or I simply never want to see again for other, more personal, reasons. I have held on to a lot of things for a long time; some of that stuff is over a decade old. Doing this feels healthy. Part of the reason I’d kept a lot of it was that I wanted to see if my opinion had changed. It hadn’t. If anything, I disliked it more now than when I did it initially. I’ve got room in both my head and my space for new work.
Working on block prints. Some of my walking trees. The idea is to have a large variety that I can rearrange and play with. Intended for paper and also fabrics.
