🎃 Artist: #AngelCreaidea / #angel_1_creaidea in City: #Santiago #BarrioBellavista Chile 🇨🇱 10/2024 - Title: "Catrina" - #Art #Streetart #Mural #Artist #DiaDeLosMuertos #Catrina #Halloween

Streetartwall. The mural of a "Catrina" was painted on a gray house wall. It shows an exaggeratedly made-up young woman with a large headdress of red and orange roses with small gray veils. Her face is made up in white, with blue-rimmed eyes, Mexican ornaments and a long "sewn-up" mouth. The wall painting is very precise and beautifully designed and naturally looks a little creepy.
Info: "La Catrina" is a mystical, colorful skeleton woman with a large hat and pompous clothing. Originally created by Mexican artist José Guadalupe Posada for one of the literary "Calaveras", La Catrina became THE symbol of Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) and is known beyond Mexico's borders. The name means something like "the rich" or "the wealthy".

A high-contrast graphic design featuring a vibrant red background. Large, black, blocky letters spell out STOP at the top and WAR! at the bottom. The vertical strokes of the letters are elongated into thin, uniform stripes that run the entire length of the poster, creating a sense of tension. Small text at the very bottom reads "BARBARA GALIŃSKA kaligrafia."

A captivating close-up of an agave plant reveals an intricate spiral of pointed leaves. Each leaf displays a gradient of green tones with light-edged tips, drawing the eye inward in a mesmerizing effect. This agave is a stunning example of nature's geometry, with a symmetry and texture that feels sculptural.

This image shows a close-up of an agave plant, with layers of leaves arranged in a tightly packed spiral pattern. Each leaf is pointed and sharp, like a spear, with edges that catch the light, creating a thin, glowing outline. The leaves are various shades of green, starting with deeper tones near the outer edges and becoming lighter toward the center. The overall effect is like looking at a natural whirlpool or a fan with each leaf radiating out from the center, creating a calming, hypnotic feel. The pattern is symmetrical and precise, showcasing the plant's structured beauty.

even amongst the rebellious throngs of her corvidae crew, the magpie is the DGAF-est of them all. curious, clever, dressed to impress & so resourceful that two tools are all she needs, this charming gobshite will steal your heart every time.
#decembird #magpie #music #punkRock #birds #art #illustration

digital ink drawing shows a eurasian magpie crouched upon a post (that is decorated in pink & black in a way that evokes a punk rock tiger striped motif). the bird seems to be zoomed in on someone or something below. from the beak comes a black zigzag that leads to a speech box in which the words 'punk rock' appear in pink, uppercase, jagged font.

Set against the endless expanse of pristine white sands and a tranquil blue sky, a towering yucca plant reaches upward, its delicate blossoms and vibrant green leaves capturing the quiet elegance of this serene desert landscape. High key flowers. Available in many wallart styles, including canvas and on metal.

Imagine a vast, open desert with a ground so white it feels almost like walking on snow, but warm and soft like fine sand. In the middle of this peaceful expanse stands a tall, slender plant, its base surrounded by sharp, pointed leaves that fan out like a sunburst. Rising above the leaves is a single, elegant stalk crowned with dozens of soft, bell-shaped flowers, almost like a natural chandelier reaching for the sky. Overhead, the sky stretches endlessly, painted in a gentle, calming blue that feels open and infinite, complementing the stillness of the landscape

I always feel refreshed when I get out and away to a quiet, beautiful place. The issues of the day -- that turbulently revolving chatter and splatter of the latest things to fear and worry over -- get put into perspective when I am in a setting of silence.

Nature speaks, teaches, encourages, inspires.

Go on go on go ON.

I'm still here. I want to thank everyone who has continued to follow me and reached out with kind words. I'll be taking a somewhat cautious, quiet, journey back into things, but wanted to give you all a heads up that I'll hopefully be posting the odd thing here and there. #grickledoodle #art #cartoon

Do you love blobcats? Are you a fan of free culture? Then you’ll be happy to know there’s been a brand new blobcat pack made specially (but not exclusively) for the Fediverse! Now also available in English!

Designed from scratch for a neater look, these new blobcats try their best to preserve and emphasise the original’s fuzzy feel. Bold, yet lean. Refined, yet silly. Blob, yet cat.

And best of all? They’re all free! Not just free of cost, but free to use, share, and change in whatever way you see fit! Possibly the first truly original blobcat pack released under a free culture licence. What’s a blob if not malleable? Make them yours today! (Or tomorrow. No pressure.)
