OK... expensive, energy hungry... yes yes yes, but consider the possibilities of:
~~Ant Textures~~
Have you?
I love the layers and subjects!
The downside? It looks rather messy. I'd need to devote a little corner to having wax dripping on everything... probably buy a floor mat or something.
I don't want you to go to that much trouble. I was just hoping to follow some people who worked in this medium. I'm fascinated by the way it can render texture, and translucent layers... and by the way that it lasts for such a long time without changing much at all.
Oil paint has a reputation for being "timeless" but encaustic painting is the OG.
Once again I'm getting curious about encaustic painting... such a not so well known, but tempting method of making art... anyone on here do it?
I like the splotches. They are honest. I do not like the Not Wood. It is a lie.
You and me both LMAO
I want to get my two bucks fifty worth out of this thing.
#PicaTheCat is so strange.
Bring home food, take out. She doesn't seem to notice. I assume she can smell it but she's not upset.
But when HER people put that food on their plates and sit down to eat? Uh oh. Now it's a problem. Where is the food to go on Pica's plate?
She doesn't really like people food much. She just thinks if you are eating... well? She should get to eat too.
And why not?
If that's how it worked I'd play every single time.
I got my dad his 'mega millions' ticket everyone will be very relived to know. (I think you win a billion dollars... or it keeps going up and I have to probably get ANOTHER ticket for him... ) If we win, normally I'd try to hide it, but the conspicuous ant-related funding and spending may be a give away.
Yeah... yeah maybe. Not that I can talk or anything here.
What I have is catching. My husband just sent me a photo of the marble in an office "it looks like an ant, what is happening to me?"
"you are waking up, my love"
(And speaking of interior decorating ideas... marble on the walls is a bit much ... oooh but I could go for THIS)

Because manipulatives, drawing and anything other than abstract, algebraic or textural representation of mathematical ideas often helps weaker students these potent visual and physical methods of interacting with mathematics are seen as “intrinsically remedial” — to me? This is a terrible mistake.
There is a tendency to introduce manipulatives too early and jettison them too early: advanced students are expected, in a sense, to not to “count on their fingers.”
to understand New York City please imagine 100 people in your bedroom. Yet, somehow all 100 of them have found a way to be comfortable. They’re sitting on the couch, on the back of the couch and on every chair and every surface. They have built little shelves on the wall to make additional seating. All 100 people have a place to be.
Then? all at once, at exactly 830am every single one decides they would *rather* be in a *different* place in your bedroom.
That is how it is.
Here is a famous longer literary work for more sophisticated cats who want to ponder the contradictory nature of existence:
"They must give cute kitty everything." Includes head kiss.
MUCH to think about here.
I curate my videos by choosing them all and putting them on a playlist. Then I let it play. But I will OFTEN hit that button if a video isn't what I expected, or if it has a long out-tro etc.
I didn't realize I used it so often and now I'm grumpy.
It has a seal, it's like leather in terms of how porous it is.
I'm about to make some mountains into molehills if my husband hides anything else on the high shelf from me.
