Franz Marc : The First Animals, 1913 Gouache and pencil on paper 39 x× 46.7 cm | 15 × 18 in Further description in the alt text 👇

The artwork features stylized, bold depictions of animals, primarily horses, rendered through geometric planes and sharp angles.

Color Symbolism:
Marc used bright, vivid colors to show emotion and spirituality rather than real life. He often used blue to mean spiritual and calm feelings, and red to mean heavy earth and energy.

View of Nature:
Marc believed that animals were purer and more connected to the universe than humans. He painted them to show a spiritual harmony in nature.

We’ve noticed that Robert Jenrick has been silent on Grenfell. Is that because from 2019 to 2021, he was responsible for dealing with the building-safety disaster it exposed? His record isn’t good. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Any other introverts have an appointment at 4 PM and somehow feel like you can’t do anything else all day because you have to mentally prepare for the fact that you have an appointment at 4 PM?

The most healing thing for an introvert isn’t sleep, a hot shower, or a good meal. It’s a long stretch of time where nobody needs anything from them at all and just leaves them alone

I lost all my Meta for months. I was paranoid for weeks, then pleased for weeks. Then relieved for months.

I can no longer access my Instagram account. I've spent hours today and yesterday to find out why. Downloaded a new browser. No help. Now bsky says it can't open my account. what is going on? i feel doomed. Maybe it's time to just shut the lot down.

The older I get, the more I realize I really don’t need much to be happy as an introvert. Just give me a quiet day at home with no plans and nowhere to be

Nigel Farage is now a desperate man. Chasing every headline; no low too low; the politics of the gutter, racism and fear embraced. His pronouncement on Fairford trying to link with ZERO evidence to asylum is beyond pathetic.

Our polling with YouGov shows that 99% of constituencies want to rejoin the EU. And Labour promising to rejoin the EU could stop a Reform UK government. Now is the time to talk about EU membership. www.ft.com/content/a1614884-7c8c-43…

Visited a local reclamation yard I never knew about courtesy of a good mate and fellow collaborator looking for 'interesting timbers' .. A goldmine of oak railway sleepers as I've never seen before to liven the senses! And, as much as I appreciate Minton Peacocks; racks of the real pottery I crave!
