both sold
two very similar jars; one rabbits, one foxes. I honestly can't choose my favourite, they both turned out so pretty.
I like that the plum tree life cycle doesn't completely line up with the animals'. they're connected, but still different

hey what brush do you use for line work ? <3
I use a pencil brush that I found on a computer back in college! I have no idea who made it or where it came from, but I uploaded the version I use here if you'd like to download it.
Also gumroad needed a preview image so I made this. But I don't see it on my account. So anyway please enjoy it because it took a bit!
#mibb3e#asks#please don't pay anything for this it's not really my brush!!!!#save your money for good stuff like manga and hand made pottery#also the preview features some sketches I never posted#most importantly...motoko. I think she's neat :)#the preview took forever bc I couldn't figure out how to arrange each sketch lol

mary gold when she was designed (may last year) vs just now
#shes a character from a uhhh game concept we did as a project in college#it was called respawn: soulless and was about a very ordinary and unremarkable office worker#who one day discovers that they are unkillable - that is if they die they will respawn right next to where their body would be#as if nothing happend#mary was one of the possible romances in that game and she was a painter. she lived in a small apartment filled with plants#the game was about uhhh appreciating life despite its hardships and taking the help that is offered to you#but yeah uhhh i like mary. her favorite painter is rothko. i think at some point emily joked shes a white woman in spirit#(cuz she probably does have a live laugh love mug. she made it herself in pottery class)

Me for the longest while: Hera is super meticulous and organized and is the person gently tapping a portrait until it's perfectly aligned and/or gutting the entire wall to rebuild it because they've realized it's why the pictures keep getting off tilt by less than a degree. She very much is a perfectionist, and likes everything to be spotless and flawless, from her home to her children to the entirety of Olympus, and blessings on anyone who threatens her immaculate tranquility.
Me for the last couple years or so: Zeus is also super organized but in an orderly, autistic, "everything has its place and must be in that right place, and if it is not I will not handle it in a healthy way at all because I have been more or less catered to my entire life and therefore have terrible coping mechanisms" and "gets weird about the right names and uses for things, and will get even weirder, for example, if you use a mug for cold water because it's supposed to be for hot beverages" kind of way
Me:
Me: This is definitely an area they fight and have weird sex about.
#thinking about rhe styles kf cups ober the years and giggling bc ahaha oh it must've been hell to slowly adjust to new types#this is ofc all based on a headcanon i have where hestia made everyone cups from pottery but they didnt have handles#so he kept staring at it like this is not a cup while externally choking out thank you so much big sister I love it#and then later hera or hades who've noticed his stress takes pity on him and accidentally breaks it so he can relax his ass about it#zeus#hera#happy talks greek mythos#also see my internal joke that hades has like an thousand step process about filling out paperwork and filing it#and the only two ppl besides him who understand the organizational system he has crafted are macaria and hera#so whenever someone is like this system is ridiculous hes just like well hera said it made it and they're like she's ridiculous too!!#she also probably has like five hundred different ways to organize different things

my natasha collection
#nat#94#lore reasons for why the mug is so fucked up looking. it's handmade#they're friends i guess so they all probably went to a pottery class together. it's what friends do#she made it herself it's her own bootleg cap merch#she for sure threw wet clay at him at some point#and this big fight happens and they all get banned and no one can remember who started it. but it was her#black widow

One thing ive been thinking about lately is that like
Its okay to only ever make bad art. Its okay to only paint "boring" things or only draw the same thing a million times or only be "okay" at sewing or crochet. Sometimes i think theres this idea that its okay to make bad art because its part of the process of making good art, but i think its fine to make art that is bad or just okay and not keep looking at it thinking about ways it is flawed or ways to make it better. If you want to improve and grow, thats great and you will through the process of just doing something over and over or looking for advice or other ways of learning.
But its also totally okay to only ever want to make bad art
#art#delete later#idk ive been thinking a lot about how like#for the last few years the vast majority of my art has been drawing d&d characters largely by tracing over refs#and just drawing the same things over and over#because it makes me happy!#and sometimes i just see this come off as like. a way to moralize taste/lack of satisfaction with how your work turned out#because that peice doesnt matter its just one step on the way to making better ones#but if you only ever make lumpy pottery thats fine! you made a lumpy pottery!#like my great aunts house is covered in paintings shes made#and theyre not to my taste they feel kinda generic and bland to me#but she is showing more of her art in her house than i am in mine and im like. which of us is happier as an artist#value your art where it is#especially if its a fucking hobby! jesus christ!#if its a hobby do you want to spend so much time and energy hating it you dont enjoy it anymore? fuck!#like i just finished a sweater and now a part of me wants to break fom knitting/crochet for a bit bc ive been working hard at it for a whil#and it turned out fine but with some fit issues i know to fix in future projects#but idk#i need to allow myself the freedom to let bad art be completed art#anyway this got weirdly sentimental#i should go paint some weird fish now#also from my own experience. it helps me appreciate other artists more#because it helps me stop going oh i could do that/could never do that#and i can just go. wow look at the cool art and technical skill on display

Guys what if ex-villain Misako? What if the reason why Lloyd went to Darkly’s isn’t because of Garmadon, it’s because Misako has personal connections. And while she isn’t evil anymore, it would make sense as to why she opted to leave Lloyd, yknow. Like she thought she wouldn’t be a good parent. And also why she dated Garmadon in the first place. Also it makes their relationship so interesting. Rage filled person who is trying to fight the temptation to be evil x seeming innocent secretly devious person. It would be great.
#every Misako post I make gets harder and harder to understand because the misako in my head so far removed from canon#like I usually try and make content as in character as possible but like in canon she kinda has no character#okay for those are confused by my take on Misako here’s a recap#i dislike the writing of Misako but I think she has potential to be really interesting and I’m super invested in my own rewrite of her#this Misako has the personality of an uncle who is a bad influence#like she’s chill and reckless and she cares more about the thrill of adventure instead of safety responsibilities or rules#and then there’s wusako rivalry#no romance just biting#Wu and Misako hate each other and at first it seems like it’s because of their personality differences#but they actually used to be besties but Garmadon secretly caused them to fight and they never got over it#also Misako starts off as basically an absentee parent who left her child to go do archeological to cope with her family issues#but she character develops and decides she does care about Lloyd and whilst she’s nowhere near perfect she’s attempting to be better#like she and Lloyd are still super awkward and she’ll still disappear without a trace but she like brings Lloyd pottery she finds on her#adventures and they write letters#I’ve made headcanons for what the previous elemental masters were like and I included Misako in the gang and in that she’s so much more#chaotic and I tried to imply she might be hiding some insidious#like her being part of a villain organisation secretly and that org is darkly’s#that’s all my Misako lore#ninjago#lego ninjago#Ninjago misako

had a dream that had john as the main character. i think he and amanda were going after cecelia? but they had loose ends to tie up because lynn had made it out somehow? she still had a collar but it was just like a manacle and not the shotgun collar. also amanda took pity? on daniel and john let her keep him so he wasn't REALLY an apprentice but he was weirdly okay with everything, even after he had His Entire Lower Jaw removed (he lived of course. always had a hood up after that). also jigsquad were lowkey cannibals, they had to take a bite out of every victim to keep them alive through themselves. it lost the plot a bit the longer it went tho. john and amanda tried to kill lynn at an outdoor rave but somehow got one upped by the dudes hosting who also tried to steal something of theirs? or maybe he was just gonna be like "hey that's jigsaw" to the news or whatever idk. anyway john turned into godzilla and killed the guy, then broke the fourth wall with daniel to be like "hope you liked saw xi!" and i woke up
#dream tag#saw#it was. strange#also i think lynn was the one to take off daniel's jaw with one of those wire cutters you see in pottery#she didn't nibble on him tho she just pretended and made her escape afterwards#daniel also transformed when john did but he was still normal size#so he just was like on john's brow when it got all silly at the end

not as far as I'm aware! afaik the art historian consensus is rather the opposite; that the archaic smile is a symbol of health and well-being, as the kouroi (statues of young men) and korai (statues of young women) of the era that have this little smile are meant to be idealized representations of members of greek high society, and the little smiles being this marker of idealized health, behavior and beauty of aristocrat youth. I wonder if the hypothesis that it symbolizes death could come from the fact that kouroi and korai of this era were either funerary (tomb markers typically) or votive and never "represented" a living person technically. but from what I've read and what the researchers I study from have said, the little smile that looks like this: • ‿ • is not about death, but about an idealized representation of youth, health and contentment. the happy placid smiler, them smiling due to their joy tranquility... etc
artemios o moschophoros
based on el famoso Moschophoros ("Calf-Bearer"), a ~570 BC greek statue of the Archaic period, depicting a man carrying on his shoulders a calf brought as a sacrifice to the god(s) the statue was dedicated to (the more widely-known hypothesis is a dedication to Athena, as the Moschophoros was found on the Acropolis, but considering the animal is male, a male deity is also considered probable as a recipient).
#fun fact about representations of dead people in greek art if you're interested in that: in the black figure & red figure ears in pottery#if a character is depicted as looking straight at the viewer that means they're either dead; a monster; or ''not ensouled yet''#such as Pandora in some depictions where she's being made of clay/decorated by the gods but haven't been givem life yet.#all the Alive people will be depicted in profile as you probably know from Knowing greek pottery#which is so cool actually. and does NOT drive me crazy.#eras*..... i aint correcting allthat#^__^ yayyyy youpiiiii art history

why did someone tag that vase "ceramics (sort of)" ......is it not. made of clay? the artist's website says pottery. what does that person know that i don't? 🤨
#afaik ceramics is just anything made of clay?#i think pottery is the one with a sliiiight more specific definition (gotta be a pot. well or a bowl or plate or whatever)#(but like clay sculptures are ceramics but not pottery. i THINK. maybe i should ask my mom lmao she has a degree in this)#but im p sure it's all ceramics???? idk how something could be sort of ceramics if it's a clay vase#that's even pottery too#bri babbles

went to a town in wales for the day yesterday and honest to god i think it was one of the best days of my life DESPITE the old man hitting on me on the bus home.
#went to a little art gallery/shop and there was a collection of some really beautiful ceramics#now i am in full-on ceramics mode im taking my class i want to take MORE classes i want to be making pottery 24/7 its always on my mind#so i was looking at these gorgeous bowls and mugs and garlic pots etc etc#and this woman walks over who was working there#and SHE WAS THE ARTIST WHO HAD MADE THE STUFF!#and she did her little sales pitch to me and i told her about my class and we had a really lovely chat about it all she was SO nice#anyway i got the cutest little mug glazed in a beautiful olive green#and that was like. ONE tiny little beautiful thing that happened in a day full of them. SUCH a good day.
