This is my tumblr. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
(Just a heads up for anyone who I follow: I have a habit of going through every page of someone's tumblr if I start following them, looking for things that amuse/interest me. I'm starting to realize that this might seem a bit creepy, so I apologize in advance.)
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Ziwon Wang (2008-10)
“…Borrowing from a Korean national treasure, the bronze Maitreya Buddha figure (Buddha of the Future) from the 6th century Shilla Dynasty.”
this is what POC steampunk should look like, none of that “add a corset to it” stuff; sure, this has got “glue a gear to it” but the significance of the image and the way it has been put together is especially interesting compared to most other “glue a gear on it” things

I DREW A HUMAN TALI AHAHA WHOOPS
Man Bernini was such a great artist, and FRICKEN BALLSY TOO
LIKE THIS RIGHT HERE-
THE ECSTASY OF SAINT-THERESA
its only a close up of A fucking ANGEL OF THE LORD CAUSING A NUN TO ORGASM IN A CHAPEL. LOOK AT HER FACE, THAT AINT NO “omg pretty angel is here to see me” no thats her going “OH GOD, IM ORGASMING AT THE LORDS ESSENCE” and you know what he got some shit for it and people LET IT GO, because he was BOSS. (plus nuns are god’s wives and if god wanted to have an angel drive his holy arrow into her vagina, he could)
fucking gorgeous
Then he did Apollo and Daphne
A+ story telling, Apollo doesn’t even know his love interest nyph was turning into a Tree But Bernini Caught that shit- he caught that shit and sculpted it

- # he looks so puckish here
- # it's frustrating to know so little about Gandalf
- # because he's this inhuman magnificent star-creature who has crossed worlds to come to Middle Earth and aid the children of Eru
- # but he also spends all his time hanging out with hobbits and leading them on madcap adventures where he never gives them more information
- # than absolutely necessary (and sometimes less than that) and he smokes constantly and probably rolls his eyes at everyone
- # you know that all the other Valar gossiped about his apprenticeship with Nienna behand their backs
- # because while everyone agreed Olorin was very wise (when he wanted to be) he also spent a lot of time just puttering around the gardens of I
- # Irmo
- # talking with the spirits there and trying to get something like tea or pipeweed to grow
- # and he doesn't wield his powers very often and he only participates in the Ode to Eru half-heartedly
- # and once he got to Middle Earth people kept trusting him and asking him to be their leader and giving him rings of power and he just rolled
- # with it
- # because he found out that if you just nod sagely and speak in riddles people will leave you alone and let you smoke in peace
