Today’s weather forecast (Melbourne CBD, 3000): min - 19°C, max - 33°C. 25% chance of at least 1mm of rain
The photo is one I took, and the painting belonged to my mum. It’s one of my favourites
Trying to draw something just for this and it looks dogshit
Just post it. You won’t find a more supportive corner of the internet to show your work.
I’m sure it doesn’t, and I would love to see your work
(no pressure though)
Painted by my maternal grandmother (passed away ~25 years ago). View from their beachside Queenslander, looking past their old frangipani across Deception Bay to Bribie Island, QLD.
My favourite painting in the house. It was a gift and I can’t really read the artist signature so I know nothing about it and that’s fine by me.
not really artistic but something interesting I’ve had for a long time, a hand painted framed tile
it very much uses the same symbology as soviet posters and every single idea in this pic is a lie . I look at it every now and then and think about it. I wonder if the soviets believed it.
pretty sure 1985 was during the Soviet Afghan War
Do you know what the Cryllic says on her dress? I tried to translate but it’s coming up as nonsense - so I don’t think I’m reading the typeface properly lol
So my dad’s got Parkinson’s and I thought I’d set up Assistive Access on his iPhone as he’s currently struggling to use the basic functions on his phone, eg. Messaging, email, phone etc… Man. It sucks absolute balls. Crashing randomly, scroll stuttering like it’s 2010…worst implementation of accessibility I’ve seen. If he had an Android I could just set up a custom launcher to do all this with no issue… daaaaaaaaaaaaaah
I found that many OS releases (not just iOS, but Windows as well, and Android to some extent) have been more buggy in the recent years.
No artists in my family, but I grabbed this for my 35th birthday
Sorry for the bad photo.
Mine is worse, LOL (since I didn’t participate in yesterday cutlery drawers):
Not an artist I’m related to, but I saw a photo in a meeting and the photographer sent me a copy. They took this while trekking in Nepal. It’s been post-processed a few times over the years by the photographer. The other is a Matisse print: Empotés jusqu’aux constellations.
They’re currently mounted a little further indoors now.
That’s beautiful!
That is sick! Love it.
When I saw it I was just like “this is gorgeous”. The framing cost more than double the cost of the poster lol
No painters in my family but my great aunt did this tapestry which now hangs on my study wall:
Picture
I can’t remember which building it is.
I’ve been there and I can’t remember which city. Antwerp perhaps
Nah it’s Melbourne.
I bought this when I was 17. It’s done by a Native American artist who I can’t remember the name of but I want to say she was Navajo?
I kind of regret framing it, because the texture was so nice…
Oh wow so cool, Ive never seen a framed one before.looks great!
Just had a shower and headed outside and I’m dripping with sweat straight away. It’s hottttt and humidddd yuck
Did something I’ve been putting off for a little while and climbed up on a chair to stick cable clip things onto the wall. Since I can’t climb under the house, my current solution for whisking ethernet into my room is to run it along the “cornice” as TIL it’s called, then using a flat type ethernet cable, running it underneath my bedroom door, then the “architrave” as TIL it’s called. I’m not good at cable management, so it’s going to be a bit messy
weight/diet
I’m still hanging on. I had a couple of cravings yesterday. I didn’t cave and stuck to a fairly large deficit. I worked out a rough short term plan last night as well
E: nahhh I need a siesta. I’m taking a nap
Something small I bought at the Vic markets about 20 years ago.
Edit: 2nd picture was part of a bunch of fantasy stuff that I purchased with my first pay check.
Dragon
2nd picture.
As requested. Set of anniversary cards

Your paintings are beautiful. Also, have you seen pics of the installation Stellarc did where he was suspended? He’s also done lots of other body-modification / science themed work
Thank you. I’ve not seen his stuff in person but am internet familiar with it.
Wow! 😮 and the tattoo looks like a Rorschach sample very cool.
Exactly what it is. It’s a cover up for some teenage awefulness.
Hook suspension is crazy but I find it so so intriguing!
Oh man. I’ve done some good stuff in the past but it’s too personal or identifiable to post, and now I’ve hit a really bad art block due to really struggling with life. :(
talking about tech stuff.
So I have a stereo I like to connect to with bluetooth so I can play videos and stuff on my PC through it.
After about 3 hours the stereo starts to stutter. Since the issue was only after a few hours of use I reckoned it was the device cache so would restart to clear the cache and that works. But I thought it must be something i’m doing wrong, I have the settings wrong, etc.
Nope, after much reading of instructions it’s the cache.
I might not be expert but I try to be competent. 👍
