Okay, my mantle basically* done and it looks good.

* that wood mantlepiece doesn’t really match the fireplace, which is more obvious when empty, and will be replaced

Also, in getting the stones was able to sort the wrong colors into

pink and blue/green/purple jars of their own

I’m into Audrey Kawasaki’s painted-on-wood-incorporating-the-grain stuff, tell me about it

This is Audrey Kawasaki’s new print “She Will”, for sale Dec 1-2

That flat shade of blue-green she’s used for a few paintings now, it’s a farm-print throwback especially with those half-tone dots and those wading birds it’s a weirdly volkisch-but-for-who aesthetic

I don’t think it has a place in my house but I think this flat-blue mode’s gonna be better than the earlier “boy” or even “ribbon” modes she painted

$450 for a set of prints which.. okay, Mari Inukai is okay but Amy Sol might as well be drawing on her binder

and the Stella im Hultberg - is not up to standard

that Audrey though, with the siliconsilk ribbons is promising

but I guess her shounen were promising too let’s be pessimistic

I mean Audrey has mentees now

which, I mean, they are good and faithful friends/apostles, good for them

I dunno I guess it’s below what I expect she’d give thinkspace
