Imagine being rich and paying for bland minimalist textiles and cold sterilized homes when you could be paying folk artists handsomely for handcrafted beauty and color —helping preserve honestly quite priceless artistic traditions and supporting the people who keep these legacies alive— instead.
#you have all the ability to buy pieces of art with vibrant histories and made with the worlds most skilled hands#to own something gorgeous and genuine and guarantee that these art forms survive and the people who provide them are well-cared for#and you’d rather live in a hospital and wear three colors all your life#Persian rugs?#traditional Bengali Jamdani fabrics? old school banarasi’s made by hand?#Guatemalan upholstery?#Romanian embroidered blouses?#Japanese-sourced furniture made with ancient joinery techniques?#Chinese porcelain made the old-fashioned way?#gold finery from east Africa?#Czech glass vases?#Navajo blankets?#Vietnamese embroidered thread ‘paintings’?#COME OOOOONNN#rich people learn how to spend your money or give it to me

variations on green : February edition
#green is a colour i could gulp down all day#l o v e standing in front of different versions of it in plant form#here : various succulents#no i don't know the proper names of them#leafy green tree#don't know the proper name of that one either#hibiscus#more from the land of seussian flora#found the pic w/“castle in ireland on clare coast 6/93” written on the back in my auntie's handwriting from a trip my mama + she took#vase of flowers painted by my grandmother jo#would dearly love to have it as a keepsake however cousin jan has already written her name on the back so outta luck there#drove by that green house (apts?) several times + kept sighing#so stopped to take a pic of it#it's the colour + all the windows + the decks#not sure i'd want to live there but pretty to look at#personal#foxy takes pics#and visits family

the inherent beauty of being alive! there is much to be thankful for
#– ying.talks#daisies on the grass butterflies flitting about dandelions cloudless skies cloudy skies skies that look like theyve been painted by monet#heart shaped birthmarks weird shaped birthmarks paw prints in cement frogs hiding in brick cracks raindrop stains on glass#perfumes that you love with your whole being that they become your signature scent the distant & familiar melody of a neighbour singing#trinkets that lie on your windowsill from people who “thought of this when i saw you” the scent of home that stick to bedsheets#polaroids with tape that is peeling and dried flowers from celebrations and freshly refilled flower vases with fresh flowers from outside#people who say i love you without hesitation because they have so much love to give#i love you! i love you. and you and you and you. i can go on and on#– ying.falling in love with the world ♡

(pls assume kitties are 1 cat & pic is a composite of multiple timestamps lol)
*record scratch*
*freeze frame*
yep, that's me. you're probably wondering how a werewolf ended up as a fucking kitten chewing on the sleeve of the asshole who got them into this mess. it all started when this shitty vampire in his ugly ombre red suit trespassed into our pack's territory while on the run from witches.
fucking witches, man.
((idk where this is going I just like the idea of spiteful kitten!Porsche making vampire!Kinn's life a living hell 😂))
#vomiting this into the universe just cuz I can#oh ancient vampire has a room full of antiques???#vases shattered#fine china broken#paintings shredded#Kinn literally finds Porsche sliding down from a Japanese painting he'd commissioned from ((insert famous japanese painter here))#sorry I'm uncultured swine#idk any japanese painters

someday i will do my series of prometheus drawings that have been cooking in my mind for seven years and then you will understand
#i have sketches from high school for these#i just want to do them GOOD#i am simply obsessed with the story of prometheus#like him giving fire to man and him tricking zeus (for the benefit of man) and then he gets punsihed like a martyr for it and the immortal#liver eating is so fucking gnarly#and then he's friends with Io when she's a cow!#and then heracles frees him which is cool#idk just he's soo cool and interesting and nice to humans and suffers and you can do a sexy little chained to the mountain#and in attic vase paintings he always has a nice little tunic#idk i like him

U guys don't understand how much turtle stuff I own. I love turtles. I adore them. I own probably approaching 100 separate individual turtles in the form of necklaces, earrings, statues (So Many), hanging decorations, boxes, a painting, a vase
I need a turtle knife so bad. And turtle dice. Combine my collection interests into one. I Need Them
#speculation nation#ill b at a store and see a turtle thing and it is a fucking Compulsion to buy it#i have a mini box with a turtle on it that i use to store my hair tie when im not using it#bc tally has been known to chew it up if it's left out.#i have Another turtle box that is larger. a good foot long where it's a turtle carved from wood and the top of the shell#can be opened up and inside is a storage space#im keeping a silly worm in there. Just one silly worm. all i need in there.#and i have glass statues and wooden statues and ceramic and even a metal one#the painting is this giant thing sitting on one of my dressers. i was also compelled to buy it when i saw it. it's Big.#the vase was a thing given to me by my late grandmother. i store the letter she gave with it inside of it#and it's part of my sammy shrine. the shrine of those i miss and want to remember.#i have looked for tutle dice and knives. cant rly find a turtle design knife so if i Really want one#i might have to commission one someday. once i have the money for that. i certainly want it enough.#i Have seen turtle dice. not many but a few. im gonna need to look for that again. bc i want it...#oooo turtle dice or labradorite dice... a hard choice for my 80th set... hmmmm

I was meeting a client at a famous museum’s lounge for lunch (fancy, I know) and had an hour to kill afterwards so I joined the first random docent tour I could find. The woman who took us around was a great-grandmother from the Bronx “back when that was nothing to brag about” and she was doing a talk on alternative mediums within art.
What I thought that meant: telling us about unique sculpture materials and paint mixtures.
What that actually meant: an 84yo woman gingerly holding a beautifully beaded and embroidered dress (apparently from Ukraine and at least 200 years old) and, with tears in her eyes, showing how each individual thread was spun by hand and weaved into place on a cottage floor loom, with bright blue silk embroidery thread and hand-blown beads intricately piercing the work of other labor for days upon days, as the labor of a dozen talented people came together to make something so beautiful for a village girl’s wedding day.
What it also meant: in 1948, a young girl lived in a cramped tenement-like third floor apartment in Manhattan, with a father who had just joined them after not having been allowed to escape through Poland with his pregnant wife nine years earlier. She sits in her father’s lap and watches with wide, quiet eyes as her mother’s deft hands fly across fabric with bright blue silk thread (echoing hands from over a century years earlier). Thread that her mother had salvaged from white embroidery scraps at the tailor’s shop where she worked and spent the last few days carefully dying in the kitchen sink and drying on the roof.
The dress is in the traditional Hungarian fashion and is folded across her mother’s lap: her mother doesn’t had a pattern, but she doesn’t need one to make her daughter’s dress for the fifth grade dance. The dress would end up differing significantly from the pure white, petticoated first communion dresses worn by her daughter’s majority-Catholic classmates, but the young girl would love it all the more for its uniqueness and bright blue thread.
And now, that same young girl (and maybe also the villager from 19th century Ukraine) stands in front of us, trying not to clutch the old fabric too hard as her voice shakes with the emotion of all the love and humanity that is poured into the labor of art. The village girl and the girl in the Bronx were very different people: different centuries, different religions, different ages, and different continents. But the love in the stitches and beads on their dresses was the same. And she tells us that when we look at the labor of art, we don’t just see the work to create that piece - we see the labor of our own creations and the creations of others for us, and the value in something so seemingly frivolous.
But, maybe more importantly, she says that we only admire this piece in a museum because it happened to survive the love of the wearer and those who owned it afterwards, but there have been quite literally billions of small, quiet works of art in billions of small, quiet homes all over the world, for millennia. That your grandmother’s quilt is used as a picnic blanket just as Van Gogh’s works hung in his poor friends’ hallways. That your father’s hand-painted model plane sets are displayed in your parents’ livingroom as Grecian vases are displayed in museums. That your older sister’s engineering drawings in a steady, fine-lined hand are akin to Da Vinci’s scribbles of flying machines.
I don’t think there’s any dramatic conclusions to be drawn from these thoughts - they’ve been echoed by thousands of other people across the centuries. However, if you ever feel bad for spending all of your time sewing, knitting, drawing, building lego sets, or whatever else - especially if you feel like you have to somehow monetize or show off your work online to justify your labor - please know that there’s an 84yo museum docent in the Bronx who would cry simply at the thought of you spending so much effort to quietly create something that’s beautiful to you.
#shut up e#long post#Saturday thoughts#this has been in my drafts for a week haha#also this is the heart of why AI art feels so wrong#forget the discussion of copyright and theft etc - even if models were only trained on public domain they would still feel very wrong#because they’re not art. art is the labor of creation#even commercial art and art commissioned by the popes and kings of history: there is humanity in the labor of it#unrelated: I did not know living in the Bronx was now something to brag about. How the fuck do y’all New Yorkers afford this city???

Guys.
Y’all.
I…
I just. I just… i have discovered something. And I have laughed too much. I have laughed every time I have tried to explain it to someone. I cannot get through this.
Look. Okay.
There are two things you need to know, here.
First: There’s a style of Greek pottery that was popular during the Hellenic period, for which most of the surviving examples are from southern Italy. We call them ‘fish plates’ because, well, they’re plates, and they’re decorated with fish (and other marine life).
Like this one, currently in the Met:
Or this one, currently in the Cleveland Museum of Art:
They’re very cool. We’re not 100% sure what they were for, because most of the surviving ones were found as grave goods, but that’s a different post.
The second thing you need to know is that when we (Classics/archaeology/whatever as a discipline) have a collection of artefacts, like vases, sculptures, paintings, etc. and we do not know the name of the artist, but we’re pretty sure one artist made X, Y and Z artefacts, we come up with a name for that artist. There are a whole bunch of things that could be the source for the name, e.g. where we found most of their work (The Dipylon Master) or the potter with whom they worked (the Amasis Painter), a favourite theme (The Athena Painter), the Museum that ended up with the most famous thing they did (The Berlin Painter) or a notable aspect of their style. Like, say, The Eyebrow Painter.
Guess what kind of pottery the Eyebrow Painter made?
#tagamemnon#fischteller#can you fucking imagine?#like other painters trying to explain to him that fish don’t have eyebrows#and he’s just like ‘fuck you all at least my fish have SOULS.’#and people bought them???#other people were also like ‘FUCK YEAH EYEBROW FISH!!!’#other people like me.#I would 100000% buy the eyebrow fish

War General Bakugou who wants a wife but scares all the women off with his scars, the battle stories they've heard about him and his demeanor alone is forced to go to a match maker per his mother's nagging.
Yes at one point Bakugou was ready to settle down and have children, that was in his late twenties and now in his mid thirties he has ZERO desire court a woman in any sense. He does not want to learn her favorite flower so he can ensure a vase of them stays fresh on the foyer table and in the kitchen for her. He does not want to know her favorite food so he can get up early and prepare it nor does he care to find out her favorite instrument that he'd play or hell even learn to play quickly just to see her sigh and smile at him as he plays. And he definitely doesn't want to hear her laugh and how it'll tangle up in his chest like any burning liquor that he wants to chase with more and more of the sound.
He absolutely does not give a fuck.
He shouldn't, especially not with you, eyes and tongue as sharp as any blade he's wielded in his youth. Young early twenties at best and long beautiful hair that sweeps over your black and pink kimono despite the hot summer demanding vibrant colors.
He shouldn't like how you refuse to pour his tea, how you dump it out when he pours yours to signal you are done with the conversation. Shouldn't like that when he leans closer to you, you only move so that he does not invade your space. Holding his gaze with a glare he hasn't seen from another since the battlefield and even then his stature was enough to intimidate any man.
Still you look at him, eyes only flicking to his milky one once before you hold stead fast to the glittering garnet of his clear eye.
"Must you come on to women so strongly? Is this the only way you can get close to them."
He chuckles snaking his arm around you as he pulls you closer, chest to chest. His almost bare from how loose he wears his own kimono, pressing his lips to your ear and you can feel the smirk on his mouth.
"You're just the only woman I want to be close to, sweetheart. What's wrong? Do I scare you?"
It's bait, you both know it's bait, and yet here you are biting down on that hook much harder than you should.
Shoving the hulking man away from you so now this time you're hovering over him, top lip painted in matte black as your bottom lip stays glossy in its natural soft hue.
"It will take much more than that to scare me, Bakugou the Slayer."

Lorenza Living Room Set
Hey everyone!
I'm happy to announce that my new cc collection is finished and you can download it at the bottom of this post!
For this collection, I drew inspiration from Italian interior design, blending it with the edgy allure of metallic elements. Nearly every item incorporates some form of metal detail. To balance the coolness of metal, I incorporated natural elements such as raw wood for the coffee table and the jute rug. I aimed to create a sense of tradition through the paintings while maintaining a fresh and modern approach to the whole collection.
I made a Frame TV which is base game compatible so you can use it without having the Modern Luxe kit! I hope you will like the items, any feedback is really appreciated!
The Set Includes
Coffee Table Book Big
Coffee Table Book Small
Coffee Table
Vase of Hydrangeas
Lamp
Big Painting

Sofa Cushion
