Did Hilma af Klint draw inspiration from 19th century physics?

Diagrams from Thomas Young's 1807 Lectures bear striking resemblance to abstract figures in af Klint's work.

A tender, dreamlike portrait of a beloved cat, its curious eyes hidden behind a delicate cascade of vivid pink roses. The soft petals rest gently against its detailed black-and-white fur, as if nature itself has chosen this feline as its canvas. There’s a quiet whimsy in the way the vibrant blooms frame the cat’s face, transforming it into a vision of surreal beauty and playful charm. This piece feels like a love letter to the harmony between the natural world and the irresistible magic of a cherished companion. Art by Lisa S Baker.

Relaxing cat in the green is a hand-painted acrylic painting in landscape format by the artist Karen Kaspar. A red and white tabby cat sits in a meadow in lush green grass with its eyes closed. She is relaxing and enjoying the day. The reddish-brown fur with white stripes and the grass have been painted with loose and lively brushstrokes. The picture conveys a calm and peaceful mood.

This work, a combination of painting and haiku, is a joint project by Karen Kaspar (© art and artwork) and Marjolein Rotsteeg (© Haiku).
A haiku is a traditional Japanese poetry form consisting of three lines.

Here the acrylic painting was supplemented with the haiku in English.

Golden Sunrise is an abstract acrylic painting in portrait format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. The picture is painted in bright orange and turquoise tones. Imagine sitting on the beach in the early morning and watching the sun rise over the sea. The golden sunlight turns the sky into a lake of warm yellow and orange. The sun's rays are reflected by the water surface. The early birds sing their song and the fishermen prepare their nets. Everything is calm, the air is fresh. Take a deep breath, relax and recharge your batteries with positive energy to start a new day.

Can you imagine this image on a very large metal or acrylic print? The colors turned out beautiful.

Just before Christmas, our annual trip to Bosque del Apache, NM. At dawn thousands of snow geese having just settled in across the water, all at once took to the air again, flying directly overy our heads. A matter of seconds it was over.

American Surrealist artist and poet Kay Sage died #OTD in 1963.

Kay Sage became deeply involved with the Surrealist movement after moving to Paris in the late 1930s.

Her paintings often feature architectural and industrial elements, barren landscapes, and abstract, machine-like forms. Unlike many male Surrealists who favored dreamlike imagery, Sage's work is characterized by stark, linear compositions and an eerie, desolate quality.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kay_Sage

Kay Sage passport photo.

Sage has a serious and composed expression, with her gaze directed forward. Her eyes appear intense and slightly melancholic, offering a glimpse of the introspection and complexity that characterized her personality and art.

Her hair is neatly styled, typically in a fashion reflective of her era, possibly a short or shoulder-length cut, framing her face elegantly.

#OTD in 1818.

The first performance of "Silent Night" takes place in the Nikolauskirche in Oberndorf, Austria.

The song was first recorded in 1905. It was declared an intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO in 2011.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_Night

The Christmas song Stille Nacht, autograph (ca. 1860) by Franz Xaver Gruber (1787–1863).

The sheet is filled with neatly penned musical staves, notes, and lyrics, characteristic of 19th-century script.

At the top, the title "Stille Nacht" is prominently written, accompanied by Gruber's name and possibly a dedication or explanatory note in German.

The paper might appear slightly yellowed or browned with age, reflecting its mid-19th-century origin.

The ink may have a rich, faded black or sepia tone, showing the passage of time.

Both the lyrics, written by Joseph Mohr, and the melody, composed by Gruber, are likely present in German, formatted for vocal and instrumental performance.

Decorative flourishes or Gruber’s personal stylistic touches may be visible in the handwriting.

Poppy Dream is a hand-painted watercolor painting in portrait format by the artist Karen Kaspar.
Two bright red poppies bloom against a background of fresh yellow and green tones. The flowers are depicted in a loose and airy manner and contrast with the background, the delicate green stems and a single unopened bud. The softly blurred depiction of the petals lends the picture a calm, dreamy and ethereal quality.

“The Starry Night” Follows Laws of Physics That Weren’t Discovered Yet

Art lovers have long known that the Dutch painter saw the night sky like nobody else — and now scientists know it, too.

Troubled artist or mad scientist? As it turns out, Vincent van Gogh might have been both — a new study reveals that the brushstrokes from his iconic “The Starry Night” (1889) align rather seamlessly with the laws of fluid motion in physics.

By Rhea Nayyar via @hyperallergic

https://hyperallergic.com/956221/van-gogh-starry-night-follows-laws-of-physics-that-werent-discovered-yet/?utm_source=ActiveCampaign&utm_medium=email&utm_content=When%20Wildlife%20Imitates%20Art&utm_campaign=D101824

Vincent van Gogh, "The Starry Night" (1889), oil on canvas, 28 7/10 x 36 1/5 inches (73 x 92 cm) (public domain via Wikimedia Commons)

The Starry Night is the only nocturne in the series of views from his bedroom window. In early June, Vincent wrote to Theo, "This morning I saw the countryside from my window a long time before sunrise with nothing but the morning star, which looked very big". Researchers have determined that Venus (sometimes referred to as the "morning star") was indeed visible at dawn in Provence in the spring of 1889, and was at that time nearly as bright as possible. So the brightest "star" in the painting, just to the viewer's right of the cypress tree, is Venus.

The Moon is stylized, as astronomical records indicate that it was waning gibbous at the time Van Gogh painted the picture, and even if the phase of the Moon had been its waning crescent at the time, Van Gogh's Moon would not have been astronomically correct. The one pictorial element that was not visible from Van Gogh's cell is the village, which is based on a sketch made from a hillside above the village of Saint-Rémy. Pickvance thought was done later, and the steeple more Dutch than Provençal, a conflation of several Van Gogh had painted and drawn in his Nuenen period, and thus the first of his "reminisces of the North" he was to paint and draw early the following year. Hulsker thought a landscape on the reverse was also a study for the painting.

"Quero ser a pintora do meu país."
(I want to be the painter of my country)

Brazilian painter, draftswoman, and translator Tarsila do Amaral died #OTD in 1973.

As a member of the Grupo dos Cinco, Tarsila is also considered a major influence in the modern art movement in Brazil, alongside Anita Malfatti, Menotti Del Picchia, Mário de Andrade, and Oswald de Andrade. She was instrumental in the formation of the aesthetic movement, Antropofagia (1928–1929).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarsila_do_Amaral

Portrait of Tarsila do Amaral

Unknown author - O Estado de São Paulo - Periodicals Section of the Mário de Andrade Library

The portrait captures Tarsila with a poised and confident expression, reflecting her influential role in the Brazilian Modernist movement.

Her distinctive style, often characterized by elegance and artistic individuality, is evident in her attire and composed demeanor.
