Things I adore about this video

Roman panicked tryna look anywhere else while Punk does pull ups.

Raquel helping Liv do pull ups to compete with Rhea: "We can do that too!!"

Punk and Jimmy being all matey: "look at us :)"

Tiffy & Liv posing for the cam.

Punk & Jimmy joining the yeet chants.

This:

"But it was Tiffy time :("

Jimmy shouting at the new bloodline when they pick on the OGs for being quiet.

Jimmy going mental. Punk says take it easy, Jimmy says sorry. Goes right back to being mental.

Punk being like "I'm going next I don't care what he says" while Roman's literally standing right behind him pretending not to listen.

Punk calling Roman "The Big Chief" hmmmm... 😏

"There you go you crazy little one :)"

Punk sulking and then telling Roman to go next, only to take his spot.

The making of painted stones

Well, a few times I was asked to show the process of miniature paintings on stones, and here is my first attempt to capture and explain it. Warning - I only have my phone's camera at my disposal, so the quality is not very good.

Firstly - an idea for the image. Every stone has something in its pattern that can be a starting point for developing an imagery. The stone I picked for this one is a beautiful Picasso jasper, and in this case I was looking for a stone for a specific idea I've already had in mind. Spontaneous improvisation dictated by the stone's pattern is also great but I decided to pick something more definitive for better illustrating the process.

This jasper's pattern already has outlines that can be developed into a landscape without painting it over too much. I don't like it when stones are just mindlessly covered by slapping a random image on it, ignoring the colours, textures and patterns.

Here's the idea - ruins of an amphitheatre overgrown with red gladioluses. I know, I know, but I'm very interested in the initial mystical sacrificial background of gladiators. So here it is, arena covered in red, swords in the sand, but it's finally quiet.

Before we start, a stone must be varnished - minerals are porous, and lacquer smoothes its surface. I paint with tempera - most artists who work in lacquer miniatures use oils, but tempera allows quicker process, which is important for me. I'm autistic and my executive dysfunction makes working with oils difficult - my sudden bursts of activity won't match with drying timings and such. So, tempera for me.

Starting with sketching the outlines of the ruins and painting our light source, the sun and red clouds. I'm trying to work with a palette that the stone already has and make the painting as harmonious as possible.

Erasing auxiliary lines as we continue.

Done with the first layer - the walls and the sky. After the paint dries, I apply varnish (I use Novol clearcoat, car varnish - it's very durable). There can be as many layers as you need.

Now - the flowers and details.

After the painting is finished, it'll need several layers of varnish. And some fine sandpaper (1500) in-between the finishing layers for better grip.

And here it is! time to think abou a necklace for this one.

I'm not sure how useful I can be and what aspects you would like to know, so feel free to ask. I'm not sure I can make a good enough video with my current phone, so this'll have to wait. I tried to skip all the musings about ideas and finding stories, but whatever. And the time needed for work - I don't know. There was a month-long pause in the making of this one, due to a couple of emergencies that knocked me down for some time, and it's not easy for me in general due to my mental state - sometimes I can make a painting in two days, sometimes it takes years, nothing is certain with me, especially now. But well, here's what I do.

Maternal Affection

Artist: Louis Jean François Lagrenée (French, 1725-1805)

Date: 1755

Medium: Oil on Copper

Collection: The National Gallery, London

Description

In this exquisite small painting on copper, three women are looking after two infants in a grand neoclassical setting. One woman breastfeeds an infant, while another holds up a second baby for a kiss. A woman to the left is busy arranging bedding in a wooden cradle. The open loggia and warm light suggest that the scene takes place in a southern climate. To an eighteenth-century audience, the women’s clothing would have been understood as antique Roman dress.

The painting shares similarities with a series of eight paintings by Lagrenée at Stourhead in Wiltshire. It may be Lagrenée’s painting formerly at Stourhead, described as ‘Maternal Affection – a beautiful group’. The subject was of special interest for a contemporary audience as motherhood, and particularly the practice of breastfeeding one’s own children rather than sending them out to a wet nurse, was much discussed in both France and England at the time.

I read so many Sky High fanfics and they always make Warren awkward with girls when I think that is false.

The entire Paper Lantern scene. Teasing her about using his powers. Then he uses them anyways and lights the candle with is finger, the fortune cookie line. He was so charming and smooth. The cute nickname he gives Layla.

And then him and Freeze girl.

He didn’t even say anything. He tilted his head and held his hand out.
