Mornin'. Have some Childe Hassam to start your day. #Art

A watercolor painting of the outer wall of a house, as seen from the yard. Our view is of a window, which is just to the right of center. The wall and the window frame are both painted white, and the window has many small rectangular panes of glass. Through the window, we can see some potted plants, some of which have red flowers in them. There are also red flowers in the flower bed alongside the house, as well as a shrub (just visible to the left) and some sort of climbing plant (which is off to the right, and is growing around the right side of the window). The light is bright, and what little grass we can see looks a bit faded, giving the impression of late summer/early fall.

A large, rectangular, harsh-looking face mounted on a pole. The face is frowning, craggy, and looks like it is made from tarnished greenish metal. In place of eyes, it has camera lenses. It stands against a mottled neon yellow-green sky, with a blurry city skyline in the background. A tiny red light glows near its upper left corner, while two dark birds perch on top. You probably have one of these in your neighborhood. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

An irregularly shaped underground chamber, enclosed by gray concrete. A dark industrial doorway is built into a blue-gray wall, surrounded by thick green pipes. A fluorescent green-white light hangs above the door, which sits on a small rusty metal platform with cross-braced supports. Below, the chamber is partially flooded. To the right, shelves built into the wall support a rusty greenish cabinet with vents, and a brown box with an orange question mark on it. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

It was almost a competition, each sapling reaching for the sunlight so that it could grow, and grow big. In not many years, the small copse of trees would become a little forest of its own.

Ein kleiner Igel schaut neugierig aus einem Haufen leuchtend bunter Herbstblätter, die er zum Überwintern zusammengetragen hat. Sein braunes Fell fügt sich harmonisch in die warmen Töne der von der goldenen Herbstsonne beschienenen Umgebung ein. Der Hintergrund besticht durch satte, warme Farben und schafft eine gemütliche Atmosphäre.

Modern life is a balance between enjoying the benefits of technology -- electricity, indoor plumbing, using the Internet, driving a car -- and being manipulated by the corporations that control these things.

Privacy: it's rather nice. And it takes work and determination to keep it.

art is not content dang it

#PixelArt #Art #Comic #Comics #AnubiArts

A 4 panel comic about art

Panel 1: Anubi is reading a book, when someone comes by and asks her happily "Anubi when will you make new CONTENT??", with Content referring to art in this context.

Panel 2 through 4: Anubi grows a giant hand and extends it behind the other person's head/torso, then proceeds to crush them with it with all of her force. Anubi then continues reading while the other person looks like a chess piece from how badly crushed they were.

Two new pages of the #carnivorousPlant #zine are up! Click the link for the whole thing :)

Edited to replace the second page where I somehow managed to line up the text around the image without realizing I had duplicated an entire paragraph, because I'm sooo professional.

https://tippitiwichet.wordpress.com/bog-monsters-how-carnivorous-plants-do-the-things-they-do/

#sciArt #tardigrade #wetlands #frogs #goblincore #bogwitch #illustration #humanMadeArt #art #wetlands #ecology #nature

Illustration of a pine barrens tree frog on a blueberry branch, with grasspink orchids and a leaf from Sarracenia minor (a pitcher plant). Illustration has the text:

Humans aren’t the only risk these bog loving species must face. While we don’t usually think of fire when we think of wetlands, many wetland species, including some pines, need an occasional fire to help them thrive. While the fire might threaten the animal and insect species that live there, without it they would loose the wetland habitat they rely on.

Bogs and pocasins may get quite dry in spring or summer, and be prone to fires that keep the growth under control. These fires keep low-growing, sun-loving plants such as flytraps from being overshadowed by growing shrubs. Without such fires, the bogs and pocasins would slowly develop into a forest. Because of these fires, the soil has a high ash content. So, even though they are separate from the water table, some minerals may be present from the ash. However, these minerals are used by the moss itself to wage biological warfare in a bloodthirsty struggle for resources.

At the heart of what makes a bog, we find sphagnum moss. Each strand of moss is an individual plant. They do not have roots, just a main stem with drooping branches full of pointed, tube-like leaves. The leaves have large, empty cells that absorb and hold water, soaking it up like a sponge. It can hold up to 20 times its weight in water. This makes it very effective at filtering the water that passes through it, and it has learned to use this to its advantage.

A chubby little tardigrade in sphagnum moss, with the moss enlarged to show the detail of a branch and cellular structure in the background with the text:

Like many plants, sphagnum mosses have a trick up their sleeves to give themselves an advantage to compete for resources. Slow growing plants like moss can quickly get overshadowed. However, the moss likes acidic conditions, and can even make conditions even more acidic by absorbing minerals plants love such as potassium and magnesium, and replacing these minerals with hydrogen ions. When we talk about acidity, we are talking about that very thing, how many hydrogen ions are in the environment. The more there are, the more acidic it is.

This not only means fewer minerals are available, but what nutrients are left may become unusable. Acidic water may cause minerals to form bonds with each other. When this happens, they are less likely to dissolve in water, so plant roots are unable to pull them up into the plant, starving the plant of the resources it needs for proper metabolism and building of cellular structures. Plants wither from hunger, and their roots burn in the acidity. Meanwhile, the moss thrives.

Most plants can’t survive in this environment but some, such as carnivorous plants, have adapted to fight back. In a mature bog, the moss rises in little mounds or hills. Plants who can handle the pressure find themselves a cozy home with few competitors, and plenty of moisture from what the moss holds. Some acid loving plants start taking over. This can be anything from grasses to shrubs such as cranberry and blueberry, and trees such as black spruce and birch. Orchids love bogs and pocasins, and are often found growing near carnivorous plants.

Many thanks to my 8/16 #FineArtAmerica client from Richmond, VA for their purchase of a 1,000 piece puzzle of "The Colonial Williamsburg Apothecary." This should be a fun one!! Enjoy!!

A gentleman and lady greet each other a cordial good morning in front of the Pasteur & Galt Apothecary Shop on beautiful tree-lined Duke of Gloucester Street in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. The summer sun sprinkles through the leaves creating patterns of shadow and light on the buildings and on themselves. A moment in time, captured and enjoyed by all who visit.

A stroll down the beautiful Duke of Gloucester Street in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia can reveal to us all kinds of magical moments from the past. Be it the historic residents themselves, dressed in their quaint garb, a shepherd guiding his flock of sheep, or a crimson-dressed fife and drum corp marching through the streets. A visit here is always a delight.

This image is hand-painted, digitally, and very loosely based on one of my own exclusive and original photographic images. Created in Corel Painter with a variety of brushes with a Wacom tablet and the art pen.

Title: Daimotsu, Amagasaki (1940)

Artist: Hasui Kawase

https://moonagreement.org/ #ShinHanga #Art #Showa #NoAi #HasuiKawase #Moon #FullMoon #Amagasaki #Hyogo #Japan

A bright full moon illuminates Amagasaki harbour at night. The surface of the water is calm, reflecting the moonlight; on our left, a lone figure sits next to a small fire in a drum, keeping themselves warm. There and across the bay, industrial buildings crowd close to the water's edge. Above, the sky is starless, with only the yellow-tinted moon to share its light.
