i wanna make a shoutout to @abstrakshun because i think all the posts of theirs that I've got for this blog are like a month away in my queue, but I really appreciate the stuff they post and reblog and that they add attribution data to all the posts they reblog! i think it's a great little blog and if you like abstract art it's a nice place to check out

tumblr tuesday: gather round
Pov: you are a plucky little possum rolling your favorite trinkets into your humble winter hovel for company. No one can argue with that.
~
@pennilessphotographer Zeren Badar puts (often round) objects on old art:
@spikyknee manages to make pretend (often spherical) objects bounce, melt, tumble, and hop, despite an allegedly pointy patella:
@abstrakshun is where artist Jeffrey Earp bends the rules of what is, creating (sometimes round) abstractions:
@cathcathaway is a photographer preoccupied with celestial circles:
@lionfloss is an exquisite curator of art and photography centering around eco geometries and soft objects, including, of course, orbs:
@shonk uses math to make art that does cool things to straight lines to make them round:
And finally, supreme blobber and reblobber, @kirby-the-gorb:

Do you have any blog recommendations?
I don't actually spend a lot of time on tumblr these days, I sort of come to post a couple of things and leave. I'll stick with art oriented blogs here because I think that's what you want rather than opinion or politics etc. This list could be longer if I go through my follows but sadly also a lot of people have jumped ship. Here's a few I like and forgive me for inevitably leaving almost everyone out.
Off the top of my head-
- @nemfrog
Indispensable, king of tumblr
-@50watts
Amazing book seller, also has done lots of great scans you find all over the web of rare illustration and book ephemera
- @thunderstruck9
A relatively high volume fine art blog. Lots of recent auction items, paintings from every walk of life and not just the usual
-@thenearsightedmonkey
Lynda Barry, treasure of the universe and her students always do great , creative work
- @equatorjournal
A unique aesthetic point of view for tumblr, always fresh and interesting
- @vjeranski
Always manages to find lovely images in places where others would miss them
- @hauntedbystorytelling
A tumblr institution and photographic museum
- @lesbianhorse
Out and about in the printed wilds
@samplerman
Another original blog with its own vision and content
@abstrakshun
The cold and the cool
