Fun fact; Santa Claus exists in the DC Universe and every year he breaks through all of Apokalips’ defenses to deliver a piece of coal to Darkseid.

scribble from four years ago

this was almost 40 hours of work
this one is hard to describe...there's a sad robot face filling or lurking in the composition, three decapitated christian martyrs hold their heads in their hands, above them halos surround their heads, a female martyr has a gloriole that says "FML" and above them a banner floats it says:"Nothing Gold Can Stay" and below them in large letters with repeated drop shadows says:"Stay Gold". everything is done in layers upon layer of pointillism.

9. As a poweful federal government began taking shape, America had its first National holiday.

Formerly enslaved Black people, who largely never even heard of Thanksgiving, began their own traditions based in freedom.

A day of Thanksgiving for liberty...

about laura wheeler waring:
Accomplishments Waring painted many high-profile, Black society figures, members of the Harlem Renaissance, and friends and family members. But it is her 1925 portrait of a common laundress, Annie Washington Derry, that stands as Waring's career defining work. The award-winning portrait, which captured her subject's quiet dignity and inner resolve through muted brown and beige hues, was exhibited in Paris and across America, and effectively "announced" Waring to the art world. In addition to her painting, Waring was a pioneering educator who saw art and music as integral to African American identity and achievement. She was the founder and Chair of the art and music departments at Philadelphia's all-Black Cheyney Training School for Teachers. Her forty-year association with the school saw her inducted into the Connecticut Women's Hall of Fame for her life-long "commitment to teaching and art and her prolific influence on future generations of African American artists and teachers". While renowned as a portraitist, Waring worked in other genres, including still lifes and landscapes. The landscapes reveal her empathy with the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, and her affinity with her natural surroundings. It was through her landscapes, indeed, that Waring arrived at her preference for a more expansive color palette, and her general shift towards a more wisplike merging of hues that became the defining quality of her later portraits. Waring's created many illustrations for short stories, poems, essays, and articles for Harlem Renaissance luminaries including Rudolph Fisher, Georgia Douglas Johnson, Jessie Fauset, and James Weldon Johnson. But it is for her work for the civil rights quarterly, The Crisis, that she made her greatest impact as an illustrator. Like her paintings, her illustrative work was apolitical, with images that celebrated the dignity of African American life and people.

Beautiful photos from Senegalese photographer Macky Kane, who operated in the historic Senegalese town of Saint-Louis.

the 1st photo is a self-portrait of he & his wife, Fatou Thioune, who was often his favorite subject, but died prematurely.
black and white photo of a Senegalese couple, a man and woman; he is stretched out on top of a small bed, propped up on an elbow and she sits upright, her back against his torso, her hands clasped across her lap, his hand threaded up behind her laying softly on her forearm. black and white photo of a woman standing tall and upright wearing an ornate floral dress while standing outside a building. black and white photo of a woman sitting cross-legged and wearing a long dress with intricate patterns. behind her the corner of a wall is covered with dozens of smaller photos, some framed, others simply pinned to the wall. sepia toned photo of a woman wearing a long dress with an african print design; she sits on a wooden chair, her arm draped along the top of the chair's back.
