It is finished! I usually don't work much on backgrounds so this has been an incredible challenge to tackle.
A piece created for Riversong, inspired by World of Warcraft Shdowland zones and original character of the player :)

It’s the season for decorating! If you are looking for something different or need inspiration, why not study The Grammar of Ornament from 1865? Harvard’s Mirador viewer lets you view the entire book! https://iiif.lib.harvard.edu/manifests/view/drs:425343599$1i (Link also available in our bio.)
The Fine Arts Library owns an original folio edition of Owen Jones’s (1809–1874)work, The Grammar of Ornament, one of the most influential color plate books on decorative design and ornament of the nineteenth century.
In the opening chapter, Jones wrote that one of the universal qualities among humankind is the desire to make beautiful things. Jones, an architect by training, assembled more than one hundred plates illustrating patterns and ornament from around the world and over different periods of time. Many of his illustrations were based on what he saw in museums and private collections in England at that time and in the Universal Exhibitions held in London in 1851 and 1855, as well as from his personal travels in Europe and parts of the Middle East.
The Grammar of Ornament employed the latest and most sophisticated printmaking innovations. The readers at that time must have noticed the wide range of colors in Jones’ lithographs. In color lithography, each color is printed from a separate lithographic stone, and the time, commercial lithographic printing usually included a set of only three or four colors. Knowing that color played a crucial role in ornament, Jones employed assistants and set out to create lithograph prints that required as many as twenty lithographic stones. The result was this beautiful publication.

Jones, Owen, 1809-1874 [author] London : Published by Day and Son, Limited, [1865] 157 pages, 100, that is, 111 leaves of plates : illustrations (some colored) ; 35 cm English HOLLIS number: 990050472950203941

Glimpse the Elegance: Monolithic Bears in Modern Habitat
Behold the silent storytelling of our Giant Bears, where the sleek Black Stone Bear plays with light and shadow.
This monolithic presence anchors the room, creating a dialogue with its surroundings that's as profound as it is minimalist. A statement of design that speaks volumes in its stillness.
What stories will your space tell? 🐻✨

My kingdom for a photographer. For a Very Special anonymous donor. Back when I was doing the Filaments Project somebody I no longer speak to got Bono to get The Edge’s guitar tech to pick up some strings from Springsteen’s guitar tech, which were then sent to me. I made an ebay listing. An hour after I posted it I got a call from Dallas Shue, the U2 guitar tech. “Bruce doesn’t allow any of his stuff to go on eBay. If he finds out there will be Hell to pay. I took the listing down, promised never to sell them, and to please convey my deepest apologies to Bruce’s tech Kevin. And later that day Kevin called and I told him the same thing. So I’ve been sitting on these for about 12 years. Couple months ago I was sent a Very Generous anonymous donation. This is my Thank You to them. All but / of Bruce’s strings are in this. And I really really hate that the other 2 belong to 2 of the people instrumental in causing my PTSD. Anyway, Thank You, anonymous. I’m glad we were able to help each other. . #suncatcher #crystalsuncatcher #guitarstringsuncatcher #guitarstringart #celebrityguitarstrings #wirewrappedcrystals #decorativeart #housejewelry #gardenjewelry #whatgoesaroundcomesaround #thefasteryougotherounderyouget #crystalheart #thebossofnewjersey #springsteen https://www.instagram.com/p/CiHCgpcPgvE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
