This will always be one of my favorite things. A teacher told me, "I gave one of my 2nd grade (dyslexic) students your nature poetry prompt. He's reluctant to write because of challenges, but I suspect he’s gifted. I told him just to write and we’d sort out the spelling later. This is what he wrote."

Some of the illustrations in this style had a kinda generic look to their figures. But I did like the a lot of patterning and color palates used. Methinks it still influences my work today.
Global Village Coffeehouse is a late 1980s to early 2000s design aesthetic known for its handcrafted look, earth tones and nature inspired motifs. It became common in 90s corporate design, appearing across cafes, bookstores, office software and educational materials

The tech is cool. But what I also found quite interesting was the WHY she got into robotics: so she could make her art easier.

Pause and enjoy this piece of classical guitar playing by a virtuoso performer.
An 18-year-old Japanese classical guitarist, Haruna Miyagawa, performs Niccolò Paganini’s Caprice No. 24, a technically demanding violin piece arranged for guitar, highlighting its sequence of variations and arpeggios in a contemporary concert hall setting.

recently I saw an art exhibition that truly made me both laugh and cry: a retrospective of a painter I had never heard of before, Mexican surrealist Alfredo Castañeda (1938-2010). Every painting felt like an "instant classic," as if it had always been part of the canon

Some beauty to adorn your day. May this be a restful respite from all the troubles that surround you. Repeat as needed.
This piece sounds much better being played by a quintet than how we usually hear it with a full orchestra. This is definitely how it was meant to be.
