Digital art of a turtle-koi fish creature with a lily pad and pink lotus flower on its back, mimicking the vague shape of a turtle shell. A small frog rests on their lily pad as drops of water catch on the petals of the lotus flower. A tadpole swims shortly behind them. The background is a greyish blue with swirls and sparkles.

A sparrow-like creature pokes its head out of what appears to be a large birdhouse. It's circled by tall, slender cypress trees, and is in the middle of a mediterranean garden.

A small cosmetic jar in a long bulb shape. The body is a shade of turquoise blue with black detailing and neck.

This small blue perfume flask from Jericho, in ancient Canaan, dates back to 1650–1550 BCE.

Cosmetics and toiletries were highly valued in many ancient societies, with both men and women wearing eye make-up and using perfume, and even using various forms of hair dye.

Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "Wavering" oil on Ampersand Gessobord, 8"x8" (2026). This loosely painted seascape painting is monochromatic (black & white). It has a textured sky over a dark, wild sea. The sea on the right is meeting a rocky shore on the left. There is much texture throughout the painting.

Sharing for today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme, #Edge

This painting is all about an emotional response. I used value and texture to express how I was feeling in a particular moment. Painted from imagination and memory in my studio.

I was at a dog-friendly bar in NW Portland tonight and a table behind me started singing Happy Birthday and then I realized it wasn’t for a person but a really old dog who was wearing a crown and he was old and fucking adorable and I love this city

Common goldeneye ducks are here! Here's a drawing from a couple years ago when I was finally able to identify them on the water nearby.

My photo shows a set of Late Iron Age glass gaming pieces displayed on a sandy surface in a display case at the British Museum. The set is made up of 24 coloured glass domes; six each of white, yellow, blue, and translucent green glass. One of the yellow pieces is out of shot in my photo. Each game piece is decorated with five inset spiral motifs in a contrasting colour. Nearly all pieces are uniform in shape; domed with a slightly pointed apex and a flattened base. Dimensions approximately 2.57 cm diameter and 2.2 cm height.

The gaming pieces were recovered from a richly-furnished Late Iron Age cremation burial in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, when it was disturbed during the construction of two gas-pipe trenches during the building of the Panshangar Estate in 1965.

Gorgeous glass gaming pieces from Iron Age Britain! 🤩

This unique set of 24 coloured glass domes with flattened base and spiral decoration may have been used for a game similar to ludo some 2,000 years ago.

An original digital illustration by Loadofolbobbins of a white browed tit warbler bird perched on a thin spiky branch. It is quite a puffball shaped bird with an array of pink, blues, purples, oranges and greys in all it’s feathers so it looks like it rolled around in lots of eyeshadows. The background is splashes of light blue ink.

In the off chance this may reach someone in the wilds of Bsky during these interesting times here's a bonus colourful pic today, whose name alone should illicit a smile...the White-browed Tit Warbler. #RepostYourArt
