#art #China

It's actually 5 luminous sculptures of 5 different colors. Large. Look to be about 3 meters high. Head shoulders and breasts. Female breasts on a cartoonish Mao face.

They're on some kind of pallet in a grey stone wall art gallery.

20 issues of CUM! A special kind of anniversary and a great opportunity to look back at the CUM collection over the years!

(mirror: http://triapul.cz/files/cum20anniversary.png )

When I started CUM issues 2 years ago, I was initially inspired by @qrstuv 's work and the use of the word therein. I wouldn't be able to do his art any justice by attempting to dissect it in any way, but I bring it up because it resonated with me deeply, and influenced my own work in many ways.

I set out to create an irregular Funhole series — a sort of a companion to *Funhole [Monthly] Issue* ( http://img.triapul.cz/issue ), that would dedicate the entire page to a single person or an event that at that time of struck me as notable, relevant, and worth recording.

The word itself carries an insurmountable weight of intricacy, it has the power to offend instantly, it confuses, it makes some blush, others refuse to accept that it's not an acronym.

Is it meant to be offensive? Only as much as the contents of the artwork is to the viewer. Is there a deeper meaning to all these 20 posters gathered up together? Do they reveal something sinister about their author? Maybe! But that's for the audience to decide.

https://funhole.wiki/cum

Thank you for your continuous support, and for allowing me to entertain you as one of the top 4000 artists who create original content for the Fediverse.

Lincoln Liberal Club

When liberality began to wilt as tolerance and generosity ceased to rain down, the doors were locked.
To whom shall we pray to ease this drought?

Frühlingskätzchen ist ein Acrylgemälde im Hochformat handgemalt von der Künstlerin Karen Kaspar.

Eine kleine Katze thront auf einer Reihe bunter, abstrakter Blöcke in kräftigen Pink- und Rottönen. Der Hintergrund besteht aus abstrakten Farbflächen in warmen Orange- und Gelbtönen, die einen lebhaften und eindrucksvollen Kontrast zu dem ruhig dasitzende Kätzchen bilden. Das Bild strahlt Verspieltheit und fröhliche Leichtigkeit aus

Normally, when we drive through country landscapes, we're looking at the landscape -- the cows and farmhouses, rolling hills and copses of trees. But this time, it was the sky that demanded our attention, filled with outrageous poofs and puffs of clouds that constantly shifted, sometimes hiding the sun, other times breaking apart and letting it shine through.

TV had not been invented yet. He was not interested in the newspapers and magazines of what was, even then, the voice of corporations.

He went to a place where he could be alone with his thoughts, surrounded by the timelessness of nature, because he had many things to think over, and he was rather tired of pushy people telling him how to think them.

An open question to the #art community of Mastodon:

If I was to organize a big #solarpunk #illustration #contest focused more on #worldbuilding than art mastery, which organizations should I reach out to for legitimacy and reach?

Assume that prizes / funding could be organized externally / we have sponsors.

I know that we already had some art-community-organized Solarpunk events, like French Week and Art (2024), Yishan Wong's (2021), Atomhawk (2019).

Getting Ready (Love and Hex #154)

Hey, the changeling is still here! It's her wedding! Don't let the other characters' shenanigans distract you from her story. (This is more a message to myself than to you.)

#comics #webcomic #art #drama #dnd #ttrpg #monstergirl #loveandhex #mastoart

1. Changeling Kayra, dressed for her wedding and still looking like a human, sits in front of a mirror while her mother fusses with her hair.

Changeling: "Mother, you've been fussing over me for hours."

Mother: "It's just these few stubborn strands..."

2. Mother and daughter look at each other affectionately.

Mother: "You long beautiful, dear. Even more than usual."

Changeling: "Thank you."

Mother: "And you've become such a wonderful, talented, lovely woman... You have always made me so proud."

3. Mother claps her hands. "now - *sniff* let's get you married!"

Changeling interjects: "Just a moment, mother-"

4. Changeling Kayra takes her mother's hands to plead with her.

Changeling: "I know I breaks tradition, but I REALLY need to speak to Jonathan-"

Mother: "Dear, Johnny loves you. There's nothing you can tell him that will change his mind."

5. Mother leaves the room and shuts the door behind her. Changeling Kayra looks on, alone.

Mother: "And the ceremony is about to start! You can talk so you like after the views are exchanged. It would be terribly bad luck if Johnny saw you in HERE - you'll see each other very soon!"

Changeling: "Sigh... Jonathan has NEVER really SEEN me..."`

6. Changeling Kayra looks at herself in the mirror and Reaves to touch her reflection. The reflection shows her true self: a construct of mud, sucks, and buttons.

Changeling: "...But he will."

Cool Cone On A Hot Day

The joys of an ice cream on a hot day. Trying to enjoy it but having to hurry as it runs and drips over your hand.
And it has to be a real one, none of that whippy nonsense.
