the art vs the artist’s hand ✨

(Featuring a hand ‘self portrait’ with Eid henna!)
A detailed watercolor painting of a dark-winged angel with brown skin and hair holding his injured lover on his lap. The injured angel has brown skin and hair, with damaged lavender wings and chest bandages. They rest together in the clouds, stained purple and yellow from a sunlight glow behind them. A watercolor painting of two cupped hands, palms up in a du’a prayer style, above colorful tilework in turquoise, pink, yellow, and white. The left hand features henna, including various symbolism like triangles, swirled linquistic like patterns (although not in Arabic, it’s a personal spiritual thing), and symmetrical round patterns rising up the wrist. There is a silver wedding band too and the nails are short and unpainted.

Title: Sunset Stitched in Threads
Style: Warm-toned documentary photography with rich, saturated hues reminiscent of Moroccan textiles.
Prompt in ALT
A warm-toned documentary photograph of a woman in a flowing, loose-knit Moroccan kaftan sitting cross-legged on a terracotta-tiled riad rooftop in Marrakech, delicately sipping mint tea from an ornate brass cup. She is positioned centrally against the sprawling medina cityscape, her relaxed posture and contemplative gaze creating an intimate moment of tranquility. A beautifully crafted patchwork quilt with intricate geometric patterns drapes over the wrought-iron railing beside her, its rich indigo and amber fabrics echoing the traditional tilework of the city below. The scene is bathed in soft, golden sunset light that casts long shadows across the rooftops and enhances the vibrant, saturated hues of terracotta walls and colorful textiles, while the bustling medina life unfolds in the atmospheric distance below.

Saffron Riad

#aiart #blueskyart #digitalart #aicommunity #fashionportrait #plussizemodel #riad #lanternlight #semisheer #85mmprime
Twilight Moroccan riad courtyard with zellige tilework, carved plaster arches, brass lanterns reflecting in a shallow fountain; an adult plus-size woman lounges on a low kilim ottoman in a semi-sheer satin wrap dress, layered chiffon and denser embroidery across the chest for coverage, front cut into a low V as the visual anchor; the fit reads a touch small so fabric gathers high at center and shapes a generous upper line while a snug sash draws a natural taper; moonlight provides cool rim from above, lanterns cast warm lattice patterns over skin and silk; skin rendered with lifelike microtexture, faint freckles and peach-fuzz catch, quiet sheen across the upper chest and shoulders; 85mm prime at f/2, shallow depth with the focus plane aligned to the neckline seam and clavicle, courtyard receding into soft bokeh; seated three-quarter crop, relaxed S-curve posture, neutral-warm white balance, restrained grading with crisp detail.

2025 watch #921: Animalia (2023)

Gorgeous cinematography, felt like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Birds, and Annihilation, but about women's subjugation and class divides.

You can't convince me that full-grown George Santos was 7 years old. I need to know what those dogs were meeting about.

Ceramic dish with deer, phoenix, and lotus blossoms https://clevelandart.org/art/1924.742
The design of a flying phoenix on the rim was frequently represented on vessels and tilework of this period. The motif was derived from China, most likely transmitted on prestigious silk textiles.

Title: "Marrakech Motion"
Style: High-speed photography with saturated color palette and cultural documentary elements .
One image with my profile, and one without.
A high-speed photography capture of a woman dancing freely in a sun-drenched Moroccan courtyard, her vibrant patchwork harem pants and cropped tie-dye tank top creating a kaleidoscope of colors as she spins. Her movement is frozen mid-spin with fabric billowing dramatically around her, barefoot on warm terracotta tiles, her arms gracefully extended in joyful expression. The courtyard features intricate blue and white zellige tilework covering the walls, with colorful hanging lanterns swaying overhead and potted bougainvillea cascading with magenta blooms. Harsh midday Mediterranean sunlight creates strong shadows and highlights across the scene, with dappled light filtering through ornate latticework, casting geometric patterns on the traditional architecture while maintaining sharp focus on the dancer against softly blurred background details. --chaos 20 --ar 9:16 --p --stylize 300

A view through a large, rounded archway into a bright, white courtyard of traditional Moroccan architecture. The courtyard walls are painted white with a distinctive blue trim and feature smaller arched alcoves, dark wooden doors, and a low, round stone fountain at the centre. The floor is covered in intricate, reflective blue and white geometric tiles. Above the courtyard, a section of the bright blue sky with wispy clouds is visible, framed by the arch of the entrance.

For the fifth time in a row, the Israeli occupation has renewed the administrative detention of Palestinian detainee Hassan Yousef from Ramallah for another four months.
Yousef has been imprisoned for two years without charge and has spent more than 20 years in Israeli imprisonment.
The image shows a man standing outdoors in front of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. He is wearing glasses, a black suit jacket, and a light blue shirt, and he’s smiling slightly. Behind him, the Dome’s intricate blue and gold tilework is clearly visible, along with several people in the background, suggesting a lively day at the holy site.

“The Mayan”

Art Deco light meets Denver dusk — a temple of cinema glowing against the city’s cool evening sky.

#EastCoastKin #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Glow #Fujifilm #ClassicChrome #StreetPhotography #PhotographersofBlueSky
The image shows the Mayan Theatre in Denver, a historic Art Deco cinema bathed in neon light at dusk. The building’s facade features intricate geometric tilework in turquoise, red, and gold, and a large sculptural relief of a figure in Mayan attire holding a staff. A vertical neon sign reading “MAYAN” glows in bright blue and orange, casting reflections on the cream-colored stone. Below, the marquee advertises summer comedies and classic films, while a few pedestrians walk along the quiet sidewalk beneath the fading blue sky. The photo captures the enduring charm of vintage urban theaters—places that hold both nostalgia and living culture, glowing like relics of a more communal era in the fading evening light.

Title: Royal Dragon's Spa
Style: Renaissance painting with fantasy elements
Prompt in ALT
A Renaissance painting depicting a tiny, golden-scaled baby dragon with emerald-green jeweled eyes luxuriating in a marble basin. The dragon, no larger than a housecat, rests amongst a swirl of crimson rose petals floating in the warm water, its delicate scales shimmering under the soft light. Around the basin, two attentive attendants in richly embroidered Renaissance-era attire gently pour water from ornate, gilded pitchers, while the background showcases an opulent castle bathroom with intricate blue and white tilework and tall arched windows overlooking manicured gardens. Soft candlelight from nearby candelabras illuminates the scene, creating a warm, regal atmosphere, befitting a royal creature named "Ignis".

A historical illustration in the style of a Persian miniature depicting two noblemen engaged in a tense game of strategy. The men, adorned in richly embroidered turquoise and gold robes, meticulously maneuver lapis lazuli and carnelian marbles across an intricate mosaic board inlaid with silver and mother-of-pearl.

The scene is framed by towering columns and elaborate tilework, creating an atmosphere of regal splendor and intense anticipation. The illustration is framed with an intricate gold frame.

In what may be the first-ever use of uranium in Iran, yellow pigment created from uranium oxide ("(oksid-e uran") was used frequently in Qajar tilework. The oxide was imported from Europe and sold to artisans by alchemists ("meshshaq").

The pigment fluoresces under UV light.
