A hulking factory complex under heavy night clouds, an eerie radioactive glow throwing the blurry silhouettes of the smokestacks and buildings into sharp contrast. Small greenish lights are placed on the smokestacks and at a few points on the buildings. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Sketching some of my favorite birds, ravens and crows! I used my favorite fude nib fountain pen, the Jinhao 159.

Apparently Lizzo wore a shirt like this on SNL, which I think is great.

We all have a huge laundry list of critical causes to support as we battle fascists, but it's probably the economic chaos from #Trump #tariffs that will end this regime-- he's already hemorrhaging support over this!

Remember, the whole point of protesting is to be visible and give permission to people who voted for him to switch sides publicly.

Screengrab of a woman wearing a black T shirt with "TARIFFIED" written in large red block letters.

I mean, it is terrifying. And Trump supporters are afraid. Outside the hard core of the cult a lot of them just need to see enough shirts like this and enough people marching. It's already happening.

Goya’s Coded Love Letter to the Duchess of Alba

Goya neatly clothes himself in his own world of fantasy: He will have her in the end. In life, where the climate is much chillier, it was, alas, to be otherwise.

By Michael Glover

The Duchess of Alba. Inscribed "Solo Goya. 1797" in the sand and on the Alba and Goya rings. Oil in canvas.

The painting The Duchess of Alba (1797) by Francisco Goya depicts María del Pilar Teresa Cayetana de Silva, the 13th Duchess of Alba, standing full-length on a sandy shore.

She is dressed in a striking black lace mantilla over a vivid red gown, embodying both nobility and Spanish traditional fashion. Her right hand points to an inscription in the sand that reads “Solo Goya” (“Only Goya”), asserting the artist's unique authorship or perhaps hinting at a personal connection between painter and subject. The Duchess wears rings inscribed with the names “Alba” and “Goya,” deepening the intrigue surrounding their relationship.

Mary Cassatt Gave Women a Place in the Impressionist Movement

Mary Cassatt reshaped the art world by elevating everyday domestic moments into beautiful Impressionist works of art. Discover how she championed the visibility of women as both subject and artist and helped bring Impressionism to American museums.

Cassatt seated in a chair with an umbrella. Verso reads "The only photograph for which she ever posed. Courtesy of Durand-Ruel."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Cassatt#/media/File:Mary_Cassatt_photograph_1913.jpg

Cassatt is dressed in a sophisticated, perhaps slightly informal, attire, likely representative of the late 19th or early 20th century fashion. Her expression is serene, with her gaze directed slightly off to the side, as if lost in thought or observing the world around her. She grips an umbrella with both hands.

A dark, grim space that shows a concrete floor and nothing else. In the middle of the concrete floor is a neatly drilled hole, like a manhole without a cover. A ladder protrudes from the darkness of the hole. Beyond, the room extends into darkness. Hanging from above is a glowing sign with white letters. While the glow is predominantly white, it ranges across a number of different colors: yellow, green, pink. The letters say "Open". The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

As we kick off into summer, I always like to think back to just a few months ago when summer was just a dream, and cold was the present reality.

It's so easy to forget, especially in the heat of summer, that nature has her seasons, with different features in each one. Cold in winter, hot in summer, BUT, because nature and weather are unpredictable, surprises aren't unexpected.

May you get out there, often, to that beautiful place where you feel inspired, relaxed, calm, creative, and free to be who and what you are.

That's how good things get done on this planet -- by individual people who express themselves through who they are, and what they love to do.

This tiny boxwood peapod (10 cm) was carved in c. 1500 by a North German artist. It opens to reveal little peas, and then those peas open to reveal ten little carved scenes from Genesis. Now housed at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Berlin
