There's something about Vrindavan Das's devotional art that I really love. The way he paints Radha and Krishna's eyes just transports me.

...and then I close the tabs when I've browsed the paintings enough and then this is the tab that remains open right next to them, and there are eyes, and I just get a *jolt ( Read more... )

I thought I'd turned all mushy what with all this romance I've been writing. But I feel all normal now because I rediscovered a stash of bad romance novel covers I had amassed at some point to make crackshops for B7 and Who. Oh god, NO. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. *sobs* If I see one more contorted couple in period costume with atrociously modern hairdos ( Read more... )

-I wonder if it's harder for a cat owner to realise she is going mad or if she's being haunted. Every time there's an odd, flickering shape or shadow at the corner of your eye, you first assume it's the cat ( Read more... )

Robert Auer, Croatian Art Nouveau painter (the link has loads and loads of sensual paintings). Beautiful, soft, erotic stuff. You can tell this guy must've really loved women. I just want to faceplant in all those soft, warm bodies...

-WHY AM I NOT IN PARIS RIGHT NOW

There's an exhibition of Dark Romanticism on, apparently. Scroll down for video. Although I wish I hadn't scrolled down for video, as it says "Following the first stage of the exhibition at the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, the Musée d’Orsay plans to present the many different expressions of Dark Romanticism, from ( Read more... )

Fucking WAILING at BBC Four's Sex and Sensibility: The Allure of Art Nouveau. WAILING. The presenter dude can get a bit annoying and he makes some weird leaps of logic (he overdoes the dark and sexy stuff, I think, to the point where it's pretty groan-inducing and I'm going "oh ffs, keep it in your pants" and also he can't pronounce "Mucha") but ( Read more... )

-NOT SLEEPING. FUCK.

-Freeman!Watson has my phone. I should rename my phone Watson in honour of him.

-Still not sleeping.

-Still not married to River Song:(.

-reasonabsurd revealed to me the timecocky glory that is Hatefuck by The Bravery. Song and lyrics here. I am still pogo dancing like fuck. Mentally, that is. And I can't get it out of my head. ( Read more... )

Still haven't slept properly thanks to having asshat neighbours. Am self-medicating with internets, food, cat and Persia.

Flame. An online painting app thingy that lets you... draw with flames and shit. I'm tempted to use this for something proper.

But first, stickman Masters with spirally hands of joy.

In an attempt to cheer the flist up a little, have good things:

-glitterboy1 introduced me to this amazing, amazing young artist called Niroot Puttapipat. Check out his DeviantArt page *now*. He does old-fashioned storybook-style illustration that wouldn't be out of place in books printed a hundred years ago, and he does it *well*. With sparkling colours and ( Read more... )

They're here! As some of you might know, versaphile and I have been working on a fic where the Doctor and the Master end up in medieval Persia. It's still in progress, but in the meantime, here are some disgustingly cute paper dolls I made of the boys, based on reasonabsurd's legendary Doctor/Master puppet designs:). Might be slightly NSFW because of doll bottoms and ( Read more... )
