A seemingly modern moment of abstraction in a medieval manuscript, representing silence as a yellow rectangle: publicdomainreview.org/colle…
“And when he opened the 7th seal, there followed a silence in heaven about the space of half an hour”
(Silos Apocalypse, BL Add MS 11695)

That’s a great quote! I’m going to use that to explain the exuberant use of color in my art.

I love this teachers attitude. And the student’s work shines because of it. There’s plenty of time to fix it later, but it has to exist in the first place in order to then be fixed.

This will always be one of my favorite things. A teacher told me, "I gave one of my 2nd grade (dyslexic) students your nature poetry prompt. He's reluctant to write because of challenges, but I suspect he’s gifted. I told him just to write and we’d sort out the spelling later. This is what he wrote."

recently I saw an art exhibition that truly made me both laugh and cry: a retrospective of a painter I had never heard of before, Mexican surrealist Alfredo Castañeda (1938-2010). Every painting felt like an "instant classic," as if it had always been part of the canon

I miss the good old days when Ai was just a Canaanite city that Joshua defeated in battle, razed to the ground, and whose king he impaled.

Design hack I recently started implementing:
Add a 1px top drop-shadow (white) to make text look extra crispy. 👀
Then add a 1px bottom drop-shadow.
Details in the comments.

We are saddened to learn of the passing of artist Greg Hildebrandt, who famously painted the iconic blue Star Wars poster with his brother Tim in 1977.
Greg and his brother’s artwork will live in the hearts of fans forever.

ALT Artist Greg Hildebrandt and his brother Tim's Iconic blue film poster for Star Wars from 1977. The painting features Luke Skywalker holding up his lightsaber with Princess Leia to the left of him. In the background you see C-3PO and R2-D2 and in the distance is Mos Eisley. The top half of the background features Darth Vader's iconic helmet with a squadron of X-wings flying towards the Death Star.
