Start your day off right: with a tiny Velásquez study.
3.5” pencil sketch of the famous Velásquez portrait of Jean de Pareja (ca. 1608-1670).

One more. These are all teeny. This one is about 3 inches tall.
A little gouache study of an Emil Carlsen still life with blue vase. It’s a ginger jar, two pears, a tea bowl and a tall teapot with a lizard spout.

How doth the little crocodile Improve his shining tail And pour the waters of the Nile On every golden scale! How cheerfully he seems to grin, How neatly spreads his claws, And welcomes little fishes in With gently smiling jaws. - Lewis Carroll h/t @gloomylawyer.bsky.social for the poem💚

The greatest labor movie I’ve seen, Matewan is about the kinds of sacrifices and unity it takes to win justice for workers. A masterpiece.

I have some questions about the targeted ads I’ve been getting

did two teeny paintings today
Two little watercolor paintings on a page in a sketchbook. The top one is blue-green sky, with three layers of mountains/hills in successively darker greens. There's a tall silhouetted conifer on the right side. 
The bottom painting is similar but in soft greens, less blue.

I love how the Voyager civvies and outfits from other galaxies are just the last items off the sale rack at Chico’s
Smiling man in a v-neck garment with shoulder pads and at least two types of upholstery-looking fabric in jewel tonesOut smiling man is now wearing an asymmetrical blazer without lapels that is also possibly upholstery fabric? It is beige and has at least two textures. Bea Arthur in Golden Girls vibes.  Ensign Harry Kim wears a minty-beige v-neck jacquard number with a wrap style front. Half is I want to say horizontal pleats, but maybe pleats is the wrong word. Looks like siding for an early 80s suburban house. Maybe Molly Ringwald could do something with this, given some Rit dye.

Yeah, yeah, 'the last supper' by Leonardo da Vinci is great, amazing, sure. But did he put in a behind the scenes shot of the kitchen with a cat and dog helping clean the dishes? Lorenzetti Pietro did. Just saying. ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%...
