some of my ducks from this time around! I've got an interested party, but once he decides which ones he wants, I'll post the rest of them as available
this one's my favourite. just look at how the blue glaze broke over the black underglaze! very cool

Thinkin' about Caleb and his pottery (and clay sculpture) hobby that I've implied and mentioned in rambles, but that serves no purpose in this AU's story
#The Owl House#TOH#TOH Hunter#Caleb Wittebane#Brother's Keeper AU#doodle art#look not everything has to be doom and gloom! they get to be happy sometimes. occasionally.#definitely doesn't make them even more desperate to protect each other or anything#i used to do pottery sometimes as a kid so it's nostalgic for me to think about and easy to imagine#also discovered the existence of pottery kick wheels (I've only used electric) and now I'm obsessed with the idea that he uses one

listen im not saying achilles cant look however the fuck you want, he’s not really physically described at length. but why is Blonde White Blue/Green Eyed Achilles the most dominant depiction? surely this started before that god awful troy movie, is this an american thing?? when did this begin?? and more importantly why has nobody recently really deviated from this recipe besides troy: fall of a city (that i know of)
#im sure racism has an element here like yes i definitely know that#but surely theres some??#recent historical reason#because when you see achilles depicted on pottery my mans got dark hair etc#whats with it#achilles#tsoa achilles#the song of achilles#tsoa#hades supergiant#hades game#patrochilles#the iliad#tagamemnon#shitpost#shitposting#sillyposting

Perfume flask (alabastron) depicting Menelaos and Helen as bride and groom (Apulian, 350–340 B.C.)
#helen of sparta#menelaus#greek pottery#greek mythology#oh my god I finally found one of these. so far on my pottery travels menelaus + helen depicted in a romantic nuptial setting has eluded me.#until now. look at this!! a scene of these two that ISN'T the 'recovery of helen' is like finding a needle in a haystack. brilliant.#there are definitely more nupital scenes out there but. this is the most 'romantic' one I have come across.#helen looks so pretty here btw <3

I was looking through some of my sculpture 2 work and forgot about the artists books we had to make. I thought I would show off some of the pages from the one I made for the project!
The book with the marble like cover was my first attempt at trying out Japanese stab binding. It’s not filled with anything right now, it’s just blank pages but I’m including it anyway. The second book is bound the same way but the cover is made from orange felt. The theme was Greek mythology, specifically around the art work I had been making for the past year, so the cover was meant to emulate black figure pottery I just haven’t finished embroidering the cover. The pages include a mix of things such as the terra sig recipe I used, the crystals I’ve collected and the deity I associate them with, information on the 12 Olympians I used in my Pandora’s box piece and the wall plaques I made, as well as the exhibitions I’ve been in, the vessels I made, and other more contemporary work I’ve made! There’s a lot more than just these pages but I’ve already hit the image cap lol.
The storyboards in the last two pictures were from a music video motion graphic project I did with a friend. She had given me permission to post her half of the storyboards with credit, so full credit to her! She just doesn’t have social media set up yet and I don’t want to put her full name out there so I censored it in the pictures.
#art#artist#epic the musical#greek mythology#tagamemnon#artists on tumblr#my art tag#digital art#greek pottery#artist book#Japanese stab binding#book binding#these were a lot of fun to make#I kinda wanna make more#i definitely have more to add to this book#I have a lot of stuff for it lol

Hmm, I need something to look forward to/plan for. I don't have any upcoming home improvement projects, trips, tattoos, piercings, or other events. I tried working on a five year plan but the only things I really want are 1) a fully remote job and 2) to find a life partner, both of which I guess I can work towards, but obviously can't control. And even if/when I achieve those goals... then what?
I love my house and don't want to move. I can't really afford to travel right now. So...?
#I just want some company#someone to build a life with#and even then I don't want to do much different#more local exploring#museums and antique stores#new restaurants and movies#nothing wild#definitely no kids#Hmmmm just feeling weirdly adrift lately#I'm not nearly as invested in my career anymore#it's fine it's easier than most things#and interesting sometimes#but I don't *feel* anything for it anymore#Maybe this is just more depression?#I upped my meds a week or two ago tho#I do start a 5 week long pottery class tomorrow#I'm hoping that sparks some joy#Personal rambling

Here’s a frog cup I recently finished as a commission for a pal of mine! I love everything about this one soooo much!
#ceramic art#my art#ceramics#frogs#Augh— SO much work went into putting on all those little warts! But it was definitely worth it- I LOVE the texture of this peice.#Tip for sculptors in a hurry= A heat gun and a pottery wheel can save your butt when you’ve gotta dry stuff evenly but don’t have two weeks#The person I’m making this for has been so cool and sweet to me through the whole process#They squealed when they saw it in person! We both gushed over it forever#It’s got a little mushroom lid too! It’s not pictured here though#It was my first ever too— And I’m real proud of it!

The Ceaseless Watcher's Special Little Boy deserves to be comfortable<3
(Simply just how I imagine Jon dresses in the safehouse!)
#tma#the magnus archives#jon sims#jonathan sims#scottish safehouse period#I like to think that Martin made him the cat mug in a pottery class#some little things that I imagine with this drawing that you can't really tell:#His glasses do not have frames because I don't think that he would need them by this point#but he still wanted to wear some to feel more normal#plus without the lenses they won't smudge!#Martin both cut his hair a bit and painted his nails (also he has ear piercings)#jon wanted to keep his hair longer but it was getting a bit put of hand and wasn't well kept during season four#so he had Martin trim it so it would be nicer#the nail polish and ear rings are simply because they vibed#I definitely was not projecting onto him#noooo not at all#my art

If you became super rich and could design your own house, but could only add THREE unnecessary/random/expensive home additions (like how people will have bowling alleys, movie theatres, closets with museums of shoes, car display rooms, spa rooms, wine cellars, etc. in their mansions) - what three would you choose?
#I think I would have: an indoor pool (but like heavily customized with a faux weather system so I could get the feeling of swimming in#rain or fog or snow etc.). a very small arcade consisting only of skee-ball and DDR machines. and an old Library Room with authentic#historical furniture/interior design to store old books/tapestries/study room equipment/whatever other antiques I'd collect. It'd be#like some fully intricate movie set or something that would feel completely like stepping into another world/time.#Though I might would trade out the arcade for a roller skating rink.. i DO love skating....#And I wouldve put rock climbing gym because I love indoor rock climbing but.. as I understand it they have to change out the rock things#on the walls every once in a while so that you can have new routes and it doesnt get boring. and I'd rather have an activty room thats like#self sustaining and doesnt require me to hire some person to come switch things around once every month. Otherwise I would#totally do that instead.#I'm also personally not counting ''craft'' type stuff like having a pottery room kiln sort of thing because#that doesn't count as 'unnessecary' to me. since stuff like that would not at all be just a hobby I 'happen to#do sometimes for fun'#but would definitely be a career sort of thing. Like if I had the money for a fully stocked sculpture room and and a sewing room#with a good machine and etc. then I would literally be professionally selling pottery and designing clothing and etc.#so I wouldn't count it as 'just a random side room I dont need' etc.#The same way that if I played tennis professionally or as a very intense hobby that takes up most of my life/time#then I wouldn't count having a tennis court in your house to practice in as 'unncesscarry' etc.#wow that is the worst I have ever spelt that word ghbjh#Un Cess Carry#ALSO would obviously have an underground bunker of some sort with food and emergency supplies which also does not count as unnecessary to m#since it's literally like... survival.. And I thought most health organizations literally reccomend that even#the common person has a small 'go bag' prepared in their house. and like an evacuation plan in case of fire or other things#It WOULD be an unnecessary rich person thing to have a full on undergRound village or something stocked with 9000 guns and#whaetever. but I think just a basic emergency room with basic supplies could still be counted under the 'not unnecessary' requirement.#Like I would say that a sprawling courtyard of flower gardens and fountains and hedge mazes that takes up like a hundred thousand#dollars a year in maintenance would count as one of the three 'unnecessary and expensive' things. But having a small garden in the#back yard with a few planters in a little greenhouse or whatever would not. The 'excessiveness' of the thing matters lol#ANYWAY!!!#Just curious what other peoples Three Main things would be... hrrmm

"oooooooh, Jax let the door open, the candy kingdom will be destroyed" guys, please. The candy kingdom probably stopped existing as soon as the team stepped through the portal. It was a world literally made just for that adventure. We know that because the other characters, who are part of the circus for longer, reacted to it like it was their first time there, meaning it's never been visited, meaning Caine probably never created it until that day because there is literally no reason to keep a map you're not using and probably won't ever use again working in the background.
#though it'd be very interesting to see them return to the candy kingdom and witness it being exactly how it was before their first adventure#it'd definitely sell the «this is all a big digital lie» notion#like a videogame room that resets all its broken pottery if you leave and then go back#the amazing digital circus#the amazing digital circus episode two#tadc#tadc episode two
