in case y'all didn't know this, the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (aka the Mormon church) is worth an estimated $265 billion from a massive portfolio of business interests. it requires its members to pay tithes on their income which it then reinvests. it is not a benign entity.
he's a Mormon so i'm not sure he can rule that much.

i genuinely do not know because one of them died before i was born and the other one was an estranged asshole. the best answer i can give you is "got divorced."
"under 6'0"" is statistically like... 95% of the population lmfao

every time i watch a yorgos lanthimos movie i think i probably don't want to see another one, and that includes watching dogtooth before i had watched any of his other films
only every 50th? this is why we can't trust any corporate ceos....
πΆLady Maria, why don't you come to your senses
You been out killin' beasties for so long now
Oh you're a fierce one, I know you're searchin' for joy,
Those eyes on the inside still won't make you a boyπΆ

i feel like a sham of a person every time i post a sketch, but i guess it's worthwhile so you all can see how much work the coloring does for my art

partly because i finally gave in and bought Balatro and partly because @dejasquietplace.bsky.social has me thinking about jesters a lot lately ...
one of my fave bands, i'm so excited to see them in may
getting a weird error when trying to check out!! also, the shop says that you only ship to non-eu countries and australia - do you ship to the horrible us of a?
i think your collection would definitely also benefit from a prussian blue - i used to mix prussian blue and burnt umber a lot to avoid the greying-out that comes with mixing in ivory black.
oh yeah, almost all of those are transparent or translucent! i'm not sure i'll have any terribly helpful recommendations for colors to add to your collection since i paint a lot of skin, but naples yellow would be at the top of my list - it was one of my most used colors for years, a great mixer.
OR fucking krank: berlin. krank is exponentially worse in every way.
i have no dog in this fight but every time i have to go to the doctor i just feel happy that it's not as chaotic as the pitt
yes, I figured this was an underpainting! i just remember struggling a lot to hold edges and get opacity with certain colors when i was using oil and now that i've had years and years more painting experience i look back and shake my head, lol
not to butt in with unwanted advice, but i think you'd benefit in this case from maybe some heavy matte gel medium and some colors like naples yellow light/dark that have titanium white mixed in to counter the translucency of the colors you're using?
