I made a Zine called "Famous Bottoms" - it's a quiz with 12 watercolour paintings of famous bottoms (painted by me). This one is #8 and I assume most people will recognise it! But how many of the others would you know? If you'd like a copy of the Zine, you can buy it at https://LindsayBakerArt.square.site for $AU8.00 plus shipping :)
While most of my pieces are usually fantasy and manga based, I do try to get outside that box. The same goes for mediums used as well. Here's a bit of still life of a ramen cup because I admit to having a bit of an obsession with ramen. I do like to cook myself but I tend to cut corners somedays as well...
The idea was to create a nice scene of the sun shining down on a house. The skies are showing off shades of blue, and brown, and yellow. I love the rustic style and I feel like I accomplished that look in this painting.
One of the other bits of art I'll sometimes do is collage building. I admit to recycling bits of everyday things from candy wrappers and ramen noodles lids to packaging information for later use. I do use a bit of my own artwork but that's not really the focal point and therefore, it's being excluded from tags.
Not all of us get to grow older. And not all of us that do get to grow up.
Let's do what we can to be good to one another and to ourselves.
Let's make the most of this life while we have it.
I'm recently gathering people who like to draw to download this app, 'Stellog'. It's not fully activated yet but If you'd like to share your drawings or doodles via mobile phone, I recommend you to join the Doodle Universe and join other people! I'm currently perform as a concierge, and you can freely message to me in there, and hope we can do many things like Gartic show, or drawing together irt! I love animes like Gumball, Advernture time, Gravity falls and so on... Hope we can meet there!

Cutting Crew is a humanoid colony Stand with the ability to switch the height and width of objects. Consisting of 12 units clad in jumpsuits, they each come equipped with a jetpack and handheld blaster. The blaster is utilized in swapping the height and width of objects, with a minimum of 1 blaster per object. If multiple blasters are used above the minimum amount, the swap process is sped up.
A JoJo Stand concept that I had saved from a generator and finally got around to drawing.

I highly recommend the book, Gender and Competition: How Men and Women Approach Work and Play Differently, by Kathleen J. DeBoer.
In it, among other things, she elucidates that those with a conceptually masculine perspective (regardless of sex) are drawn to thinking of the world in hierarchies, which I have represented here with a triangle in the mind of the spotter on the left. She elaborates that those with a conceptually feminine perspective (again, regardless of sex) are draw to thinking of the world in webs, which I have represented here with a circle.
Those that think more masculine-ly are more likely to expect beginners in a sport or field to prove themselves in the group. They will often not "hold their punches" (i.e. curb their ability) to make newcomers comfortable. All members of the group are expected to "earn their keep," in a sense. When a member of the group exceeds expectations, they move up in the hierarchy.
Contrary to that, those that think more feminine-ly likely show acceptance and approval to beginners in order to foster an environment in which they will perform. They will often adjust their skills so that newcomers can more readily "keep up." When a member of the group exceeds expectations, they are expected to raise the status of the group as a whole. The playing field is "flattened" in that sense.
I am not advocating for either perspective, but I will share that I have a more conceptually feminine perspective, and that I have previously left groups whose members have a more masculine perspective.
Kathleen's book really helped me personally to understand the motivations of people that I genuinely did not understand prior to reading the book. It put a lot into perspective for me, and I hold fewer grudges these days.

With our adorable Shiba, Kaiju, as my inspiration, I've started working on initial sketches.
The next step is to determine the perfect color palette before beginning the actual painting.
Though I typically prefer to work with oil paints, it's been a considerable time since I last indulged in painting.
So, I've decided to use acrylics this time around. I'm thrilled to start this new painting!
Sometimes,
We have our hands so full of Ourselves
That we have no room for others.

Some people do not even begin to comprehend the meaning of the words "irony" or "hypocrisy."
Let's try hard to not be those people, okay? Trust me, you have faults, too. Same as everybody.
Perspective is largely subjective~
(I drew this with a sharpie. No pencilwork. I don't want to color it.)
We take things in and digest them before regurgitating them or expelling them again through our being. This is true of many aspects of our reality, not just of caloric intake.
We take things in through the senses, through the person. We digest with our intellect and with our perception. Then we are able to share that back out through the senses, through our behaviours, and through our being.
Food builds our body even as our experiences build our character. The real mark of a mature human being is developing deeper levels of discretion and recognizing more intimate forms of subtlety.
Not everyone likes grapes, but to condemn grapes as evil is not prosperous to our species. Some like cherries, but not all enjoy their flavour. Grapes and cherries are still nutritious even though some have allergies to them. And not all cherries and grapes are ripe and nutritious at all times in all places.
We must carry this knowledge into the development of our judgement. If it is important and worth while to discuss food and material nutrition, then it is much more essential that we evolve a greater sense of discretion for experience and for the holistic palette of our physical, emotional, intellectual, social, and spiritual tongues.
We do that through consumption and digestion. But be aware that a human being can not live on grapes and cherries alone.
We should also do our best to not condemn the taste buds or stomachs of ourselves or others. Namaste.
