I painted this alien tree from the Otherworlds. Known for their blue fruit that burn with a cold flame, they're somewhat uncommon. The fruits are considered valuable for their unique capability to cool you down on a hot day.

Fixin’ stuff. The dirt will have a million little lighter bits, when I get a chance, so it’s not going to stay this dark… but it was way too light, before.

A shared scalpel,
Extracting a collective Heart,
Pumping for intertwined systems,
A shared sanguine flow

Die Saiga-Antilope, die in der mongolischen Steppe lebt, vermag mit der warmen Atemluft ihres Rüssels Frühlingsblumen aus dem Schnee hervorzulocken.

The Biggest #fediverse Exquisite Corpse Game

Connect the eight black marks in some way and post it to this thread. Try not to look at what other people drew before you make yours.

Don't know how Exquisite Corpse works? See my example in image2 or read about it here: https://www.moma.org/collection/terms/exquisite-corpse

Wenn Wildschwein und Eiche einander begegnen,
lässt der Baum seine Eicheln nur dann herab regnen,
wenn das Schwein sich dran reibt, wenn es wild und auch rau ist.
Wenn das Eichhörnchen schlau ist,
folgt es dem Schwein und sammelt die Eicheln ganz einfach ein.

Daises/Sedmikrásky (1966)

If the entire world is bad, why shouldn’t we be? Adopting this insolent attitude as their guiding philosophy, a pair of hedonistic young women (Ivana Karbanová and Jitka Cerhová), both named Marie, embark on a gleefully debauched odyssey of gluttony, giddy destruction, and antipatriarchal resistance, in which nothing is safe from their nihilistic pursuit of pleasure. But what happens when the fun is over? Matching her anarchic message with an equally radical aesthetic, director Věra Chytilová, with the close collaboration of cinematographer Jaroslav Kučera, unleashes an optical storm of fluctuating film stocks, kaleidoscopic montages, cartoonish stop-motion cutouts, and surreal costumes designed by Ester Krumbachová, who also cowrote the script. The result is Daisies, the most defiant provocation of the Czechoslovak New Wave, an exuberant call to rebellion aimed squarely at those who uphold authoritarian oppression in any form.

Today in Labor History March 31, 1809: Nikolai Gogol, the Russian-Ukrainian novelist, was born. Gogol was one of the first authors to use surrealism and absurdism (see “The Nose,” “The Overcoat,” and “Nevsky Prospekt.”) Many of his works satirized Russian political corruption, like “Dead Souls,” and the “Government Inspector.” He influenced several generations of writers, including Dostoevsky, Bulgakov, Nabakov, Kafka and Flannery O’Connor. The gypsy punk band, Gogol Bordello, took their name from him.

I'm loving this! A Catalogue of Unfindable Objects by the French illustrator Jacques Carelman. Found the Finnish edition at a flea market. While I don't I think I need an umbrella umbrella, I would love to own an egyptologist's typewriter.
