Died (alas!) on this day in 1693, in Amsterdam, Willem Kalf. Extraordinary still life painter. Here from 1653, drinking horn & lobster. A+ diagonals there! Strangely energetic for painting of dead things.

Self-portrait in exotic costume, 1665: Frans van Mieris in a rather Rembrandt moment. Today has been his day.

In PTR there's this idea of full Chinese zodiac animals for Akaviri races. Filling in the rest of the minor races. This family portrait noticeably lacking a huge Red Dragon though. I'll have to add one to the long list of things to draw✌️. #elderscrolls #morrowind #akavir #projecttamriel

More weapons for Kromlech - this time for the bronze age Barrow Folk. (who tend to rise from their unquiet burial mounds lately) Again, lots of real world stuff in there.

Self-portrait as Pictura by Elisabetta Sirani of Bologna, painter & teacher. Her birthday was yesterday (in 1638) but her day is going to be today. At least on this bsky account.

Amazing scene: construction of a palace, 1515, painted in tempera with gold. By Piero di Cosimo, born on this day in 1462.

I miss the future (the year 1999)

Just got the finished art commission of my Morrowind character: Kinlaur. Made by @igorlevchenko.bsky.social I am very happy with it! If any of you are Elder Scrolls, Morrowind, or good art fans, his work is always a treat. And to have a version of my Nerevarine depicted outside the game is awesome.

Tarquin and Lucretia: the blood that he threatens to spill is displaced as red paint over his white clothing, while she remains pure. Late great painting by the great Titian, whose day was today.

Cheetah being encouraged by two Indians to attack a stag in quite confusing-implausible hunting scene by George Stubbs, born on this day in 1724.

Some wine, some tobacco, and somebody's already asleep. Evening gathering in 1643 by the Le Nain brothers, whose day has been today.

Still harping on Greuze with his lovely portrait of Ange Laurent de La Live de Jully.

#warframe pt2 To be Hewn is the sacred dream of all Scolpirenauts, to earn their true divine shape after a crucible of glorious combat with a worthy “sculptor”. The end result is a holy hulk molded by extraordinary physical trauma and a deeply mad faith. Info in Alt text.
