I love these dreamy architectural paintings by @park_sunga. There's this wistful quality of remembering and forgetting, seeing and unseeing, smoke and softness. Imagine playing a video game illustrated in this style, how lovely that would be https://t.co/ULDYVsQdfB

I find myself thinking of Alexander McQueen. I think he appreciated this idea of negative space. Imagine if he was a tattoo artist https://t.co/DuUDI2AQGW

I've always been a fan of this "Soviet aesthetic". They had a certain appreciation for majestic elegance that I don't think I've seen anywhere else. https://t.co/IpOLat9Qsc

Thread about custom guitars https://t.co/V3C9Er225Y

Hutchinson Guitar Concepts makes the most beautiful guitars in the world. Art. He works WITH the body of the instrument, not ON it. He respects negative space. Tempo. Rhythm. Pacing. Scale. Few artists appreciate the soul of their work this well. If he did tattoos I'd fly to him https://t.co/gPXmMVGqWl

I love these oil painting cityscapes by Jeremy Mann, they take my breath away every time. When you make art, I think it's always useful to ask the question, "What is it about this medium that lets me do something I can't do with any other medium?" Jeremy has this figured out https://t.co/RNr4O8z1QV

Eugène Galien-Laloue, 1850s Paris. I think these were some of the earliest paintings of spaces with artificial lights https://t.co/1JgVzINjZH

Eugène Galien-Laloue. I really love these. It's like Humans Of Paris 1850s. I love how the painting style feels like something designed to paint nature, and how the artificial lights (were these electric lights?) stand out. Could you do cyberpunk paintings in this style? https://t.co/KWglu8doDz

Industrial Revolution paintings are some of my favorite paintings. Like the Satan's Anus version of Starry Starry Night. You kind of begin to see where Tolkien got his idea for Mordor. https://t.co/6s75puxO2b

"Do you remember sleeping in the back of your parent's car at night? I tried to draw these sensations in an animated comic." Our Toyota Was Fantastic, by bouletcorp. You REALLY gotta click through the link and see the animation. Really takes me back https://t.co/16kD6MgLcV https://t.co/trSKTmXjhU
