Some of the best drawn hands, man.
GodDAMN I need to own these books!
Maybe I’ll pick up a copy at AC!
there’s only one book you need, and that’s the Dark Horse omnibus edition
I actually own it but my friend David “Toxic Toot Dick” Belton borrowed it over a year ago and STILL hasn’t returned it

Thomas Kennington
Great Britain 1856-1916
Homeless 1890
oil on canvas
170.0 x 152.0 cm___
Homeless, 1890, is one of a series of works in which Kennington depicts the plight of women and children who were impoverished or destitute. Subjects such as these gained popularity during the 1870s and 1880s, partly as a result of the increasing influence of illustrated journals, which regularly commisssioned artists to provide images of ‘real’ life.
In Homeless, the square-brush technique used by Kennington in painting the wet pavement and the river, and his focus on subtle tonal variations rather than on colour - as in the soft grey light illuminating this scene - were among the characteristics adapted by British artists from French sources at the time.

25 abandoned Yugoslavia monuments that look like they’re from the future
“These structures were commissioned by former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito in the 1960s and 70s to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place or where concentration camps stood. They were designed by different sculptors and architects, conveying powerful visual impact to show the confidence and strength of the Socialist Republic. In the 1980s, these monuments attracted millions of visitors per year, especially young pioneers for their ‘patriotic education.’ After the Republic dissolved in early 1990s, they were completely abandoned, and their symbolic meanings were forever lost. From 2006 to 2009, Kempenaers toured around the ex-Yugoslavia region with the help of a 1975 map of memorials, bringing before our eyes a series of melancholy yet striking images.”

All bready to go…
hey, quit loafing around
Public transportation sure is crumb-y.
I love this sort of slice-of-life candid photography.
it’s better than walking, at yeast
still a pretty long rye-d home
I’ve had it with these half-baked jokes
I’ll always rise to a good pun exchange
Funny though, because with puns it seems like you got naan
