🎨🫀 Let's go down a tiny rabbit hole on torsos. Much labelling will be required. The unfolding of Dimmond's remains brings to mind some of the prints produced by Francisco Goya in the 1810s as a response to what was happening around him during the war between the French (Napoleon) and the Spanish.

Anthony Dimmond's remains unfold in the church. You can see he is missing parts... Hannibal (2013-2015).

Etching by Goya from circa 1812-1815 as part of his "Los Desastres de la Guerra" (Disasters of War) series. This one is entitled "Esto es peor" ("this is worse"). The body of a man is impaled on a tree and his arms have been removed. Goya produced between 82 and 85 plates as part of the series over ten years from 1810 to 1820. The grusome and realistic images convey a powerful anti-war message and didn't show either side in a good light (heroic propaganda featuring valiant military males had been a common theme at the time). War is hell.

That may need more labels 😂👆 Here, have some more cnty little portraits by Schiele. He (28yr) and his family were wiped out by the influenza epidemic of 1918 (often called Spanish flu but only because Spain was one of the only places to actually track cases).

🎨🫀 The human Valentine Hannibal (RIP Mr Dimmond) leaves for Will in S3 resembles the work of Austrian Expressionist artist Egon Schiele. Particularly his nude self portraits which are often saturated with rusty colours and depict his own body bent and contorted in awkward ways.

Seated Male Nude, Right Hand Outstretched by Egon Schiele (1910).
A seated male figure is roughly drawn and painted with his knees together and head so far back you cannot see his neck. His right arm and hand are stretched out as if draped over an invisible object. The left arm is hidden behind the back. The figure has reddish skin with occasional blue or green patches.

What remains of Anthony Dimmond after Hannibal has folded, manipulated, broken and trimmed him (yeesh) to create a heart shape for Will Graham. Fleshy sculpture with swords sticking out of the bottom. Hannibal (2013-15)

Did not know this bit of fan science. Cool. I keep mine on the floor but must share with the gf who does like it up on the table (the fan, not anything else). 🔥🪭🫠 (Also remember fans don't cool air, so don't leave on in a place where you aren't there. The air movin help sweat evaporate off skin tho)

Screenshot of black text on white background. Text reads: When setting your fan up, try to position it at the same height or lower than you, such as on the floor or a low table, with the unit pointing up. That will blow the cooler air up, rather than pushing warmer air (which rises to the top of a room) down on to you.

Little help for us all not to die of heat stroke. (The emergency number in Ireland is 112 btw. Not 911.)

Infographic on the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion (not fatal but can progress to heat stroke) and heat stroke (could possibly be fatal). On the left orange/yellow half of the graphic, under the title Heat Exhaustion, it lists: faint or dizzy, excessive sweating, cool clammy pale skin, nausea or vomiting, rapid weak pulse, muscle cramps. It advises moving to a cooler place with air conditioning if possible, drinking water if fully conscious and taking a cool shower or using cold compress.
On the right, red, side of the graphic, under the title Heat Stroke, it lists: throbbing head and confusion, no sweating, high body temperature, red hot dry skin, nausea and vomiting, rapid strong pulse, loss of consciousness. It says to call emergency services in that case, cool using cloths or bath, and do not give them anything to drink.

🎨👽 Solar Opposites S1, E3 'The Quantum Ring' (2020) 'Dance (II)' (1910) by Henri Matisse 'The Shepherd's Dream, From Paradise Lost' (1786) by Henry Fuseli Whether it's coincidence or art nerds communicating with other art nerds over centuries, I like it.

Collage of 3 images. Top is a still from Solar Opposites (2020) with the aliens joining hands and dancing around a table while floating in the air. Middle image is a painting by Matisse (1910) with four red figures on a blue and green background. The figures dance in the same way as the cartoon aliens above. Bottom image: A painting by Fuseli (1786). Figured draped in fabric float over the head of a sleeping man. Their positions are similar to the positions of the figures in the two images above.

They do well pretty much anywhere. Don't need that much minding or watering. We dug rows for them here to give them space but they just take it anyway I think. Gotta spray them for blight sometimes. (I had to keep a couple of weeds off the stalks but that was it really.)

It never ends but it doesn't demotivate me as much as say household tasks do when the situtation is similarly never-ending there 😅 at least I see things grow and pretty colours in the garden

Garden vegetables with vibrant red and green colours. Brown soil is cool too I guess.

🎨🫀 The Hannibal (2013-15) episode Su-zakana reminds me of Henry Fuseli's 'The Nightmare' (1781). Will Graham and Peter Bernardone both have monstrous shadows sitting on their chests. Will lets his heart decide, Peter encloses a living bird in the chest of the woman his social worker murdered.

'The Nightmare' (1781) by Swiss artist Henry Fuseli. In this oil painting, a woman lays across a bed with her head and arms hanging over the edge of the mattress. She wears a long white night dress. A small but monstrous looking creature sits on her chest and turns to stare out of tbe painting. In the background, there is a curtain of red fabric which is partially drawn back. Through the shadows behind this curtain the head of a wild-eyed horse emerges from the shadows.

Hannibal (2013-15) S2 episode Su-zakana. Peter Bernardone's social worker makes the mistake of emerging from the horse. He is covered in blood. Hannibal stands calmly behind him watching the scene unfold with his hands in his pockets.

Jack Crawford, Hannibal, Price, and Zeller attend the crime scene in the stables.

Price, Zeller, and Jack Crawford discover the living bird which had been enclosed in the victim's chest.

Sketchy day so I sketchy. Spent too long at a pencil piece the other day and now I don't want to go back to it. 😅 Here's a tip, always end drawing sessions on a high so you look forward to going back, especially if you are a procrastination princess like me...

Lenny the l🧡bster. He's a 'hug a lumps' small plushie and all his beads or whatever are in his gigantic head. I love it. Great for snuggling

Rachel@racheburn· Jun 16

I like Sebastian Stan with the shaved head. It is harder to draw though, at least in my opinion. He joked it was for a role, and not a mid-life crisis. He's very funny really but people don't pick up that he's kidding sometimes. (Anthony Mackie does - everyone needs a Mackie in their lives.) ✏️🩷

Pencil drawing on white paper. It is in progress. You can see one half of the face and a bit of the shoulder and top of the head. Subject is Sebastian Stan in a suit with a shaved head.

Got a pink bear, a scythe, and a piece of pie for a hat. And generally the adhd is under control 😅 (life doesn't seem impossible every day anymore)

🎨🫀 Okay, so that circle above Hannibal's bed is not a mirror. I had a painting lined up if it had been, but it's not. It's an ominous circular recess with dark red colouring inside. Cool. He does have other mirrors in the bedroom but this is definitely a little red demon 🕳️ hole.

Hannibal's bed in his bedroom. He pulls the covers over Alana as he sneaks out. On the wall over the bed is a dark circular depression with animal horns pointing towards it. I thought it might have been a mirror before, my mistake, it's a demon hole.

Concept art and photograph of the set of Hannibal's bedroom. The art shows the circle above the bed is a recessed and is filled with a dark red matte colour. The photograph shows one of the mirrors in Hannibal's bedroom. He has a few. Vain...

They do use the dark circlular recess above the bes to add a trick shot of the moon passing through the sky to indicate the passing of time though. Neat.

My local cathedral. The photo is taken from the inside and looking up into the large dome on top. There is a flat circular recessed ceiling at the top filled with a matte blue/almost teal colour. Same as Hannibal's bedroom (kind of).

Another Harry Clarke window. This one looks like Scully/Gillian Anderson to me...

Stained glass window by Harry Clarke in mostly reds and blues. A figure with shoulder length red hair and a golden halo is looking towards the sky. They wear a blue and red robe and are holding their hands up to the sky. In the background, there is a blossoming tree with pink flowers and deep blue patches of sky.

The pattern on the fabric is subject to all the little folds and shadows of the fabric and that is okay... *she tells herself, not totally convinced*

Segment of a pencil drawing in which a person is wearing a floral patterned garment. The pattern undulates and is broken up by the folding of the fabric and the shadows said folds create.

🎨🫀Marc Chagall's 'The Birthday' (1915) records the love between the artist and his soon-to-be-wife, Bella. In my opinion, Will Graham's lingering love for Dr. Alana Bloom is evident in the scene where he undergoes hypnosis at her direction. 😘
