Ancient Greeks drew in their brows to connect them. Unibrows were seen as beautiful and were worn by intelligent and lusted-after women.

Causes of a  Unibrow:

I did a bit of research on unibrows, also called synophrys in medicine, and it is about your DNA. It is commonly found in men specifically with the gene dubbed PAX3.

Dancing in the Mud - "The Mud Song"

 

TikTok - VybzEntertainer

I found this video on TikTok this morning, which I find very creative. I think this artist made a very good statement with the dress dancing in mud. I wonder what the meaning of this video clip he made will be.

This is the second time that I got a commission assignment

I just finished my second year and had to leave my studies, and I was without work in 1995. There was a lady who asked me to do two black ladies for her. I did it on a canvas, the size was 2m (h) and 1.8m (w). I did that with powder paint because that was the only media I really knew and could afford. If I remember correctly, I asked for the paint, something like R400. That was the last time that I got an assignment to do a work. That painting, I can't really remember who I did it for, I think I must have used a picture and done it from a picture.

On Sunday the 1st of September, a friend of ours and his girlfriend came to visit. They asked me to do a portrait of them, and I liked the lady's feet, and she said I can draw that for her. They also asked for an oil painting, which I am not sure if they really wanted. I am very excited to do the portrait, especially the oil painting. I did a lot of pencil sketches which I kept as part of my recordings.

Madonna - Like a Prayer (Japan '90) laserdisc rip

The meaning of Madonna's song "Like a Prayer" is about a passionate young girl in love with God, who becomes the only male figure in her life.

What is this song is about:

This song was recorded by an artist named Wes, who hails from the Republic of Cameroon in Central Africa. The song gained fame in Europe, even though it was sung in the Cameroonian language called Duala.

 According to "Pikkulokki" "Alane" is a song of exuberant love, intertwined with minor material conflicts in our lives that we must overcome. These conflicts are deemed insignificant in the grand scheme of earthly life, while our need to connect with others is seen as the most effective way to break down barriers.

Doef Daf Away from Us

Elandre: Vuur op die Water (2019)

 Doef Daf

If it were just us,
It would be so simple for all of us.
Me watching you,

When I woke up this morning,
I saw you without clothes,
Naked in a pose,

Someone has to leave us,
Spring has to teach us,
Winter, Autumn were all about us,

Summer didn't give you trust,
Doef daf
Back off from us

- Pieter Lategan 2024

Pieter Lategan Notes about Doef Daf:

This poem is about insecurity and the time he spends in the different seasons with a relationship that is on the rocks, busy crumbling in front of him.
