I don't know if I've had too much eggnog but it kinda looks like the wrapping paper that I'm using right now. What if it was found-art of Target Wrapping Paper that someone framed?

this reminds me of some flemish renaissance painting but i can't quite remember it, van der weyden or s/thing (prob not him)

OMG! this is totally proof that Botero was an anachronistic painter
― sarahel, Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:20 (thirteen years ago) link
oh god, yes there's something of him there yean
― flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:23 (thirteen years ago) link
i guess botero was influenced by the plasticity and fleshy distention of early flemish portraiture?

agreed
if he was still alive today, he would have a tumblr with very respectable reblog stats and that would be more apt to his level
― flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 11:51 (thirteen years ago) link
uh no he would have a deviantart page ur refs r all wrong
― plax (ico), Saturday, 22 January 2011 12:09 (thirteen years ago) link
feel he would have migrated by now, with some consternation from the deviantart crowd that he must be whoring for a tumblr-to-book deal
sort of irrelevant since he never lived to see any of those sites

best guess yet imo!
― opeth winfrey (donna rouge), Monday, 24 January 2011 23:54 (thirteen years ago) link
at the very least fruhtrunk was who i think i meant when i said id seen these before. this is making a lot of the same problems for itself even if the resolutions are a little clearer.
― plax (ico), Monday, 24 January 2011 23:55 (thirteen years ago) link
miami basel says there was *a* fruhtrunk in the catalogue...
