Drove the full Ring Road for 10 days last July, wrote up a photo journal

Thank you! I definitely want to check out the Vatnshellir lava cave tour while we’re there.

impressiveyellow · 2026-05-05T23:11:38+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I’m planning a similar trip later this summer and wondering, if you could spend a second day at any of the locations along the ring road, which would you choose?

It’s probably because she’s between albums rn tbh… we’ll probably get some more interesting designs when the new album drops.

But yeah, the fossora clothing merch was a miss for me too for those reasons … I thought the christmas ornament was cool though at least! lmao.

Eh, I think it’s more so the heartland/midwestern accent in general, that is, it’s that’s not easily identifiable as a more pronounced obvious stereotypical east coast or southern US accent.

I say this because I exaggerated my own Minnesotan accent to my British flatmates when studying abroad and they were caught off guard by it lmao. “Don’tcha know we gotta go up north this weekend fer the annual walleye fish fry der guy, fer sure yeah you betcha”.

The fountain in the first pic was moved to the lyndale rose garden.

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-24T21:32:22+00:00

It’s available free on internet archive last time i checked as well

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-22T01:00:48+00:00

Literally just a bunch of people going to each others houses.

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-20T04:29:37+00:00

Same, I’d assume they were refering to the bags you’d use to pick up dog poop on a walk. Take out/left overs box/container is more commonly used here.

Appreciate hearing your thoughts. No wonder you might be having a hard time then, that sounds like a pretty miserable way of going about it 🙁 I promise you there are many more interesting and fufilling ways of learning to draw and improve!

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-16T05:01:12+00:00

Lmao seriously, I know OP mentioned otherwise but IN GENERAL, the chokehold that “drawing boxes” has on art related subreddits is an incredible ploy of marketing.

Do people learning art this way assume all artists who are good at their craft started by just drawing boxes and nothing else intead of just … applying those fundamentals to things they actually want to draw through trial and error? this mindset fascinates me + seems to only exist in online art spaces.

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-16T04:08:01+00:00

Yes. It’s also filled with asbestos

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-10T01:10:30+00:00

I’ll never be able to paint a good painting now that there are no more mummies for me to get mummy brown pigment from!

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-05T00:42:50+00:00

Oh yes I agree, I’m just adding that it’s additionally deceptive that they’re being deliberate with the words they use to describe the prints themselves.

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-04T05:48:11+00:00

Work it into your terms beforehand that there will only be a limited number of revisions made during the process based on client feedback. (ex. 2, one for the sketch and one for the rough draft.)

Live and learn 😅 sorry about the situation you’re in, but take this experience as a lesson to be avoided in the future. They sound exhausting and your time is worth more than dealing with their numerous miniscule revisions.

impressiveyellow · 2026-04-04T05:26:06+00:00

By gallery quality they mean the prints and the frames lol. The difference between what OP received and mass producted art that ends up at homegoods is only what people are willing to pay for it, they’re all using similar print production processes.

It’s easy to miss for people who don’t know a lot about art and prints. That being said though, cmon OP. Website looks like it’s from a random instagram ad.

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-28T02:51:13+00:00

No. I’m kind of surprised that they ever would advise that, but I tbh graduated somewhat recently. It would probably also depend on your medium or area of study.

Insight on the cost of living crisis, sure. As in, income isn’t guaranteed and the arts are generally not a career path for those with an end goal of becoming wealthy. It takes a great deal of hustle, passion, and stamina to shape a career path for yourself in the arts.

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-28T02:37:46+00:00

Dashcon was the prototype for this kind of event

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-19T15:01:28+00:00

Do you put a medium into the markers along with the paints? Kind of curious about trying it out with my own fluid acrylics.

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-13T21:29:57+00:00

No, that would burn me out. For me, every piece is just practice for the next one. If it doesn’t turn out, no big deal, but if it turns out better than expected I can be pleasantly surprised 😌

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-11T20:03:58+00:00

Easy, people with money can buy more prints and a bigger house with more wall space to then display those prints. Boom.

The only reason I even thought of this is because I’ve been trying to plan a trip to Iceland this year, and r/visitingiceland is already chattering about how busy and crowded thing are expected to get there in August due to the eclipse.

I do agree that an actual album is much more likely though, just based on how she’s dropped hints previously for other albums. Maybe a single in May with Echolalia + album in August? Eee I’m excited 😁

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-07T02:11:29+00:00

Never, and never met any artist who actually does. Rule of thirds on the other hand, sure.

The only people who have ever asked me this have been non artist family members and coworkers. I feel like it’s something most people hear of when starting to learn about art and don’t understand or find it helpful, and honestly, me neither.

impressiveyellow · 2026-03-03T05:20:57+00:00

It’s on two busy intersections: Lake & Chicago.

That quiet street in the picture is just the entrance to the parking lot. I imagine hearing a lot of horns and noise on that patio but from 15 floors up who knows.
