Not me furiously googling how to shade a ball despite having drawn for 30+ years

Are you divinely favored? Think you’re the apple of a gods eye? Look no further than these designs!

Twitter used to be my Musings App™️ and now I’m not sure BlueSky scratches that itch

#Classicstober Day 29 - Mysteries 🌾✨ Not the spookiest piece but when I saw this prompt it reminded me of a paper I wrote in grad school about tiny votive figurines of girls holding piglets from Eleusis.

#Codextober Day Six: Templar Maria Thorpe, my chaotic neutral girlie. Saw the prompt and it had to be you. I love how much she matured and grew alongside Altaïr 😭 #codextober2025

Cross posting my crash out

#Classicstober Day Five: Hermes Psychopompos I really wanted to make it seem he is reaching past the border to the viewer to drive home he can cross boundaries and planes. #Classicstober25

New post this week, part three on ancient Kos! This week continues through the reconstructed Casa Romana before detailing the adjacent remnants of the southern area of the agora. www.roamintheempire.com/index.php/20... #RomanSiteSaturday #Archaeology #RomanArchaeology #AncientBlueSky 🏺

#Codextober Day Four: Anomaly

A traditional drawing everyday in October!!!! Day 1!!!!!! Jade

#Classicstober25 Thanatos I know that he is often regarded with fear and malice but I wanted to depict a young Thanatos as mild mannered with kind and patient eyes. I wanted him wearing his “melampeplos” with a soul butterfly on his finger.

A bit of WIP for the corporate/ professional AU where both Ares and Aphrodite, in their modern mortal disguise form, working as licensed professional therapists.

#Classicstober Day One - Hypnos I based this piece off of the bronze bust from Civitella d’Arno. I always thought his wing ears were charming! Happy #Classicstober25 !

A reminder that #ClassicsTober starts tomorrow on @classicstober.bsky.social and the overall theme is KATABASIS.

and our spirits, too, will never be broken! Let's add more horses, comment with your flags if it is missing, let's see how many I can add xD

Millennia pass, but some traditions endure and here are some glimpses into the quietude of divine existence. Just taking a casual walk around the old office in Byblos with my consort and preparing for the next early morning.

It’s out in the world now, hopefully not getting lost on the way to its new home - in your hands. YOU ARE ODYSSEUS is finally ending its journey from idea to book. Illustration of Odysseus from the Title page of the paperback edition.

FLAT SOBEK FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!

In boring, non-academic news: the “spicy Byzantine.” All stainless steel.

I don't have anything profound to say. Censorship is bad. Tag and spoiler your NSFW art. Informed consent is more important than smothering voices.

When is the interactivity going to increase on this site? It still feels a bit like screaming into the ether.

New post this week, part two on ancient Kos! This week's post details the large Western Archaeological Zone with its mosaics and frescos as well as the city's 1st-2nd century CE odeon. www.roamintheempire.com/index.php/20... #RomanSiteSaturday #Archaeology #RomanArchaeology #AncientBlueSky 🏺

Attention Anyone Who Knows Hieroglyphs!!! I have an amateur translation I would love to have checked for accuracy! Any help appreciated! #AncientBlueSky #ClassicsBlueSky #Archaeology

No better way to gear up for #ClassicsTober than to finally finish a prompt I started last year 😅 I was drawn to the complex story of Regina of South Shields & I hoped to reflect the implications we can draw from her tombstone. You can read further details on my instagram post! #ClassicsBlueSky

It’s 3am and I can’t sleep and I have work tomorrow (today?) I’m just -

Been sitting on this idea for a while: “brat” but in Latin and Ancient Greek. #ClassicsBlueSky #AncientBlueSky

Attention #ClassicsBlueSky, #AncientBlueSky, or anyone who just loves myth and history: What kind of stickers or shirt designs would you want? I’m itching to make some fun designs but am having a bit of art block! Any suggestions would be considered and any help appreciated!

Dude navigating this economy sucks.

Nooooo don’t cry, ur so sexy But seriously, I am always compelled to draw Helen of Troy and this time I made her sad, I’m so sorry. #ClassicsBluesky #AncientBluesky

HARD stuck on my line art for a piece I’m working on, someone pull me out 😭

“So you’re saying your type is married and heavily pregnant?” - Livia, probably, when Octavian basically proposed to her right then and there despite being someone else’s girl. #ClassicsBlueSky #AncientBlueSky

Livia Drusilla (59BC - 29AD) #ClassicsBlueSky #AncientBlueSky

God I hate this job market. I’m so tired.

Forever a secret 🪶 Happy Birthday Ezio Auditore! Today’s sketch became a study in older #Ezio and then making myself sad thinking about him still wondering what his baby brother was going to make with those feathers all those years later.

Book accurate Rhaenyra Targaryen 🔥🩸

Wanting a new job but also wanting a drastic hair cut/color, hm.

“It’s my comfort show” “It would make my career difficult” “It’s more convenient” “but I’ve always done it” 🤷‍♀️ ok so just say you don’t care as much as is needed. Own it.

Had a really emotional day at work saying goodbye to kids I’ve taught for four years 🥹😭

I start making my way to Crete today, and will eventually get there on Friday! For #ReliefWednesday, from my last visit to the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, a marble relief from Knossos depicting Leda and the Swan. Dated to the 1st-2nd century CE. #Archaeology 🏺 #RomanArchaeology #AncientBlueSky

Guess we gotta keep up the sentiment that GenAI sucks so that more companies start to feel it.

Getting more and more anxious about having any job, in or out of my major/wheelhouse, come July. Can’t remain at this teaching position for a myriad of reasons but 🙃

First papal decree will make it illegal to call Chicago “Chiraq”

Truly just [REDACTED] platforms that make us re-enter information after asking us to upload a CV. Just busy work testing our want for the position, I swear.

Not my 8th graders using “peekaboo” by Kendrick Lamar to remember their future tense Latin endings 🤭

Screaming “Bestie, what are we GOING THROUGH” when playing any Spotify blend playlist I have with someone.

I didn’t want it to happen this way but I’m finally watching Conclave.
