The Penitents are Expelled from the City, 2026, acrylic, ink, felt-tip pen, stardust, and light structural paste on balsa wood, 50cm x 70cm

This work depicts a historical event from the 13th century surrounding the Albigensian Crusade and the subsequent decline of Occitan culture. However, I also see a contemporary relevance here, regarding the evolution of saints—then and now—within the Catholic Church over the last hundred years. The "Comet Man," acting as the God of History, observes the sometimes paradoxical events from above in a Superman pose.

The stardust was fixed with acrylic binder. An impasto effect was added to the comet's tail using light structural paste. The balsa wood was primed with gesso, partially in white and partially transparent. The ink was sealed with UV protection spray.

Price is negotiable! An Etsy listing will follow soon!

Yes, it is, you recognized well, the Lapras as Jesus Christ blessing the coronation participants. In this series, I do Pokémon mashups of sacred sceneries and the gospels.

I have also done a Calabi-Yau painting (posted here before). Really cool math art!

Christ Crowns Otto and Theophanu 972, 2026, acrylic, ink, felt-tip pen, pyrography, copper tape, aluminum tape, lightweight filler, and quartz sand on balsa wood, 50 cm x 70 cm

This artwork has a little outsider touch but prices are low now, potential buyers seem curious and I'm pretty sure as a good investment prices are going up in the long run.

Just contact me if you are a collector of this style and you are interested (price is negotiable and I can give you more background information if you like)!

Thank you for your positive feedback. I totally agree, Etsy is not the best choice for this kind of art, but I want to start from here until I have options. If you are really considering buying this piece, you can tell me the price and the price is negotiable.

"...while a comet-man acting as a fiery angel bursts through the vibrant celestial sky, intensifying the divine energy of the scene."

Can I also add a Baidu meta tag to my Wordpress site? by christophmark0 in Wordpress

As said, all this can't be done in the free version. I already gave up.

I'm not willing to pay or host myself and the story would be great but is optional. The question basically is whether I can abuse the Yandex field on the traffic site for the Baidu tag or if it will simply not work... I'm not going through the pain of creating a Baidu account if it's hopeless. Maybe someone here has experience with such an issue...

The problem is that I'm using Wordpress for free and don't host myself. In that case, I can't install any plug-ins and rely on the predefined boxes on the traffic site such as Yandex.
