And this one

when i was reading the book entangled life which is about fungi and the author merlin sheldrake said that once he got his first author copies he was going to dampen the pages and use them to grow oyster mushrooms and yeast and then use the yeast to brew beer and then drink the beer with the mushrooms to complete the cycle of fungal knowledge. i was like really and truly this guy gets it

Last reblog I will do (aside from Palestine donations)

- Yes, that is a coyote and badger. Not a raccoon or a wolverine or a wolf.

- No, this isn't anything dark or 'the coyote/badger is going to hurt the other one when the camera turns off' situation as what people think. These animals have a 'friendship' in the natural ecosystem where the badger digs up holes to eat whatever is in there while the coyote chases whatever escaped from the hole. These animals' friendship even date back to Native American records. These two animals are most likely going for some late night snacks.

- This is not in Europe or any other country. This is in California, USA.

- The original video was posted by POST: Peninsula Open Space Trust. It's a non-profit organization that posts trail videos of the San Francisco Pennisula and Santa Cruz Mountain range. This video was recorded with Pathways of Wildlife, another animal preserving organisation as part of research. They sometimes post other trail videos as well as some really interesting educational videos on wildlife. Highly recommend you check them out.

- You can watch the original non edited video here.

Seeing this and having a vague idea about splatoon is funny. The whole world is gone but Australia is still thriving.

I CANT BELIEVE IT AUSTRALIA IS REAL IN SPLATOON

Preview of Basilisk, my personal favorite of my risograph comics, and the project all my other recent medieval-inspired art descends from.

Styled after medieval illuminated manuscripts and printed using a custom color palette requiring 5 risograph inks (including metallic gold), Basilisk asks the question: what would drive a teenage girl to create a monster?

Physical copies available here. To brag for a moment--this is my masterwork of riso printing and is even more impressive in person.

Off topic but 16th century artists were ok with painting about 2 original paintings per lifetime because being an artist back then was like, a stable job kind of.

Before 16th century, artists were no different from being a carpenter or a builder. It was a stable job anybody who had a knack in it could do.

It was around the 16th century (Renaissance period) where things started to change a little, because instead of being looked over as like making a door, art has begun to be more appre

Becoming an artist meant you had to study other fields too. Medical anatomy, mathematics, geometry and philosophy. Even if your original art didn't succeed as much as you hoped for, you had enough talents to be commissioned by someone because your skills extended past just creativity.

On top of that, you couldn't just become an artist. We are fortunate enough that just about anybody could call themselves an artist if they pick up a pen and start drawing, no matter how amateur it is, but back in the 16th century you wouldn't be able to. You had to be part of a workshop in order to at least become a recognized artist. In fact, half if not a big majority of art was created in these workshops. Those big paintings that covered walls and sculptures that stretch to the ceiling had to be done using a group of artists. Art was a legit stable job that anybody could get into if they had a good enough idea on how to draw.

However, we're more fortunate to be artists in the modern world. Art back then was rigid, and the fantastic works in pop culture that we know of today would have all been rejected in the Renaissance period. And the freedom to become an artist is much better today than it was back then. Hell, even learning the inside of a human body was a struggle considered how the church was still salty over not being able to control artists or free knowledge anymore, and did everything they could to prevent people from dissecting corpses to study the human body.

Being an artist is hard
