Happy April 1st everyone ! This pixel art was made for the Pixel Parlor Palette Collab 2024 (the palette is INKPINK by Inkpendude 💜). I wanted to try to reproduce a more “cartoonish” style with these 4 illustrations ☺️.

#art #history: double diaboliques for connoisseurs of french cinema - & particularly simone signoret (born #otd in 1921), who was never afraid of risking her career to stay true to her endeavours in left-wing activism, human rights & social justice. she & her husband, yves montand, often showed solidarity with activists & striking workers by physically turning up to demonstrations to support them. [A SHORT THREAD]

Founded today, 1994: Mosaic Communications Corporation. You're probably more familiar with their second name, though: Netscape. My first glimpse of the web in 1995.
I was fascinated by that animated N icon. It got to me the way work by Dali and Magritte did: eerie, surreal, kind of haunting, with the glowing horizon and flying meteors during pageload. (90s internet meant seeing those meteors a *lot*).
Here's to yesterday's UI design, and yesterday's web.
Byzantine Ornaments (N° 3)
Friedrich Maximilian Hessemer, John Burley Waring, from "The Grammar of Ornament" by Owen Jones, London: 1868 #illustration #art #design https://www.oldbookillustrations.com/illustrations/byzantine-3/
'let me fight my monsters.'
#art #history: these words, a plea from teenaged rachel corrie (born #otd in 1979) to her mother. in 2003, she went to #palestine & by the 16th of march, the monsters had killed her.
rachel's death was deemed accidental by an israeli investigation & the soldier who crushed her was exonerated...because of course he was.
brave doesn't touch the sides. read rachel's emails at https://rachelcorriefoundation.org/rachel/emails to fully appreciate her soul.

#art #history: in 1939, billie holiday - born eleanora fagan on this day in 1915 - threw a punch with the release of her recording of 'strange fruit' - &, if she'd not persisted, it may not have been released until much later. columbia refused, at first (‘they won’t buy it in the south’), to let billie include it even though it had been a central & permanent pillar of her repertoire during her tenure at cafe society.

These are screenshots from the video game Sable. Does anyone know how to describe this particular style of art?

就像我关注了#illustration 和#art 天天给我推荐的都是什么丑东西………
French illustrator, etcher, lithographer, caricaturist, and novelist Albert Robida was born #OTD in 1848.
One of Robida's most significant contributions to literature and art was his pioneering work in the genre of science fiction. He was a visionary artist who imagined futuristic worlds filled with advanced technology, air travel, space exploration, and other innovations that were ahead of his time.
