A print from the other night that I'm proud of. Made it for my workshop on intaglio with chine-collé and monotype. 💗

An array of trace monotype prints printed on translucent kozo paper in a gradient of pink to black ink. The prints feature figures interacting with stars and the Sun, and there is also one of a common wood sorel.

Photo of a glass tabletop with dark purple and fuschia ink rolled out in a gradient, and two pieces of kozo paper featuring trace monotypes - prints made by drawing on top of the layer of ink. One of the prints depicts a nude white woman with long hair sitting on one knee, with hands facing up in front of her. She gazes up at a star in the sky, and a fluid stream of light drips down from it into her hands and onto the ground below her. The other print is a pattern of fluid-like abstract lines.

Moon-Venus conjunction and Earthshine, by photographer Stefano Maraggi. Due to the Earth-Moon distance only a tiny fraction of the sunlight reflected by Earth reaches the lunar nightside, which reflects a tiny fraction back to Earth, appearing dimmer than the portion directly illuminated by the Sun.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

This dim and distant world is the farthest planet from the Sun, about 30 times farther away than planet Earth.

Details of the complex ring system are seen here for the first time since Neptune was visited by the Voyager 2 spacecraft in August 1989.

Exotic Animal Photo Reference Repository

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

A glass tissue box sits on top of a white plinth. The glass is clear, but has a slight bubbly texture to it. The solder has been patina’d to look aged. The tissue reads, “Time heals everything.” The background is also white and the light comes from the right hand side of the image.

had to revisit the exhibition for a quick talking head moment. this light was really nice of the aforementioned white on clear on transparent situation.
