Out of curiosity, are there any fellow artists who create art inspired by vintage print/book illustrations? Would love to follow more who share my niche.

Digital illustration in the style of old print. A large two-headed beast with dark fur emerges from a cave. It lifts its heads to make eye contact with a redheaded child sitting above the cave’s entrance.

Digital illustration in the style of old print. A humanoid figure wearing a red cape stands in the foreground looking over her shoulder. Behind her is various moss-covered rocks and trees. Below the illustration reads "The woods were still and quiet.”

Digital illustration in the style of a vintage storybook. A pale humanoid figure wearing a red cape is in the middle of a dark forest. The trees surrounding her have circular patterns carved into their bark. She stands on the edge of a pit that is filled with a tangled mass of worm-like creatures. Below the illustration reads "The worms wriggled endlessly in the pit."

Digital illustration in the style of a vintage storybook. At the edge of a forest, a girl wearing a hooded cardigan meets a long slender creature. The girl reaches out her hand as if to touch the creature's snout.

Tiny tiger! Photo from my collection, ca. 1950s. No other info.

Black and white photo of a little shorthaired tabby cat sitting up on a wooden kitchen chair. It very cute but maybe a little dazed by the flash.

Guess who did another upcycling project💦 Bought these shoes (super cheap due to a stain) on a warehouse sale years ago and finally upgraded them a little. Black alcohol-based marker strikes again.

This is a bit outside of my usual “yore” timeframe but I love everything about it. Writing on the back indicates that this is “Freddy” in the sink, 1981.

Microsoft is trying to convince the public there’s nothing wrong with how Israel is using its tech or the fact it’s supplying an apartheid state with that tech at all, while stifling internal dissent. Probably a good moment to remind people BDS is calling for a boycott of Game Pass.

"Your life should not be a museum." "Being alive is as special an occasion as it gets."

An image of three screenshotted tweets. The original from user @hell_doe: "Thinking about the girl who bought me coffee from Texas and joked that I would have to ration it out for special occasions. My friend, I do not save my good things. Being alive is as special an occasion as it gets."

User Mike Hamilton, RIV tweeted a screenshot of the original tweet to say: "being alive is as special an occasion as it gets" fundamentally altered my brain."

User Oliver Darkshire quote tweeted Hamilton to say, "Ten years as an antiquarian, hearing nothing but "my relative kept these untouched in a box their whole life but they died and I don't want this stuff" has radicalized me. annotate the books. use the china. wear the clothes until they wear out. your life should not be a museum."
