Thrifting is magical because what do you mean I now have a double matted Audubon duck print for two purchases of $3.99 vs $399

Big fan of the sassy sheep and the exploding demon worm from this Cusco school painting. A lot going on here, but they’re clearly the stars

Every book lover knows the ONE time you don’t to pack a book for a trip is the one time you have time to read it!
Maybe it’s a good thing because I have a new book for my 3 hour flight later this week. Will report back what I learn about animal welfare

Thinking today about the eyelashes on this sleeping Teotihuacan dog at the St. Louis Art Museum
Fabulous. Flourishing. Unbothered. An icon!

This Chihuahua ‘book’ was all the rage for 10yo me! Shout out to the wonky history here for inspiring me to write a thesis- I’m still looking for those ‘ancient paintings’ of chihuahuas to pop up one day 🤔
I bought it at a Bob Evans of all places too!

I feel like this dog would be a pro at the game of Twister if not for his stubby little legs! Unlike Colima dogs, he has a simple face, but is just as lovable 🫶

Today’s very important task: photoshopping my plucky Chihuahua into Art History
It’s for a Christmas gift, but I really feel like he’s elevating the discipline in ways we could never anticipate!

Ooo I have a question @flintdibble.bsky.social!! 🙋
I recently went to the St. Louis Art Museum and saw these parades of birds on a Greek vase. Is there any relation to the Naqada? Or was bird really just the word back then?
Would love to know your thoughts!

Omg Uaxactun is the site I researched! I read through the Morley diaries at the APS and found that it was actually a muleteer named Alfonso who discovered Stela 9. Morley was obsessed with crediting himself as finding it. He also bribed another worker to stay and help lift it. Here's the discovery:

The look of a dog who just realized his owner is home (with treats!). He may be missing part of his front toe, but that notch in his ear? Probably something intentional from the artist!

Hi hi everyone!! 👋
Heard that some great folks were making the leap into clear skies and wanted to join in!
Looking forward to spreading the Colima Dog agenda starting with this pup. Could y'all keep an eye on him for me while I get settled in? Thx!
