yamamanamaStephanie Saunders paints in mixed media, mostly oil paints. She has calling cards with paintings that aren't online. Her site plays pretty nicely with the Internet Archive.
I would not be surprised if she was influenced by Takashi Murakami or Shinique Smith.
A woman had an arts and crafts bag but that was her mothers. She’s not much of an artist.
There were people with deep purple hair, hair that was a combination of lavender so pale it looked white and dark purple, and neon pink, but I caught only the faintest glimpses.
I saw the Cancer tile and it depicts a crab with chelae on both ends. Which is still better than the Cancer in some French monastery near the Swiss border, which looks like some kind of Ordovician mutant. If this were southern Plymouth, I can understand. I've never been to France but I'm pretty sure there aren't any animals that went extinct in the Devonian living there.
The Venezuelan Project consists of cuatro, which is a small electric guitar which has four strings, hence the name; bass guitar; llanera harp, which has a big resonator box on it and was made in France; and percussion, consisting of maracas, a cajón, cymbals, and some rattles, one of which is made from plastic bottle caps.
Sometimes a cuatro will have more than four strings. Not in Venezuela.
There were four of them at the concert but five people in a photograph. The fifth guy plays piano. I can’t find much about them, especially given everything else going on in Venezuela. Spoiler alert: fuck populism, but let’s blame left-wing politics instead and continue to elect populists. If there’s one thing they do right, it’s the many many public conservatories and music schools. I don’t know too much about Venezuela because Geography Now is only at Mali.
A woman on the Green Line was reading a comic called Monstress that I really should look into. The artwork looks lovely and the setting sounds intriguing.
A traveler pointed out that the other woman on the page was her sister. They both had abyssopelagic black hair and big eyes.
Sara designed her own tattoos. Behind her ear and on one shoulder are cherry blossoms, on her chest is an anchor with a skull and bird wings partially obscured by a chalice pendant that I thought was a bird skeleton and she says that a lot of people have mistaken it for something else, on her other arm is a great green water serpent and things obscured by the lace of her shirt. She had a jeweled choker and nose and lip piercings and ruby-red earrings. She showed me some art she was working on, a life size stylized painting of a woman that she thought looked better in black and white. The one thing she can't do is draw on the train; she gets motion sickness.
I couldn't tell what was going on on the Wollaston platform but it looked like they were starting to build an outside structure. Sara says that you gotta renovate or else you end up with Government Center.
burning question: what are cats made out of? Some kind of magnetic liquid?
