"She painted the designs entirely by hand without using stencils. Over several decades, her artwork transformed parts of the village into a living example of preserved folk tradition and craftsmanship" https://streetartutopia.com/2025/05/25/its-never-too-late-to-pursue-your-passio...

  Honestly, this article on "Doggerland" is absolutely fascinating "The floor of the North Sea is now recognized as the largest well-preserved prehistoric archaeological landscape in the world. It would have been a paradise for the bands of hunter-gatherers who followed the retreating ice sheets into the region to settle there. They, however, were not Doggerland’s first inhabitants.

  "The Facial Expressions of Tethys" by artist Julius von Bismarck is ... relaxing 🌊 📽️ A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves https://www.artsupp.com/en/artists/julius-von-bismarck/die-mimik-der-tethys #art #artwork #artist

AI slop is everywhere (sigh). I guess the subtext is that I do try to filter the AI art stuff, but it's getting hard. #Art #Artist

  Cromwellian Commonwealth's Plans for Ireland It seems lands seized by the Commonwealth Regime would be used in order to pay off their soldiers, debtors, etc. The Catholic Irish were to be completely removed from any pink land and moved to Connacht.
