That ask earlier reminded me of how much i love paintings of the Fae

One of my favourites is Hylas and the Nymphs, an 1896 oil painting by John William Waterhouse

I saw it at someone's house once and it just captivated me, the way the nymphs are drawing Hylas towards the water, where they'll likely drown him, and he is so entranced that he doesn't realise what theyre going to do to him. Thats my interpretation of it at least, other people might think something different.

Every time i look at this painting im just as entranced and unable to look away as Hylas.

Wide, Quiet Eyes

Winding gray days away

on spools she waits.

Third window from the left,

breath on imperfect glass

holds last winter’s chill.

Soundless hinges sweep.

...counting footsteps

of familiar shoes on king's pine.

Lover, her ivory bloom

has fallen to the ground.

Peel away layers

of wind-dried sheets

and discover a little animal waiting at the edge

of the orchard

before it ventures forth.

Time now to taste

early autumn’s

mellow apple flesh

with your Puritan mouth,

warm and flushed from sleep without dream,

its texture vulnerable and unafraid

against your teeth.

Wide, quiet eyes

like a foal before it stands

watch with no expression.

Just one gasp:

a pinprick when dark hair slides

across a mother of pearl curve

...a lucid undulation.

If there is danger,

instinct has failed

to alarm.

She has emerged from

the column of alabaster

she entombs herself in

to be alive for your hands.

When you go away

she will pull snow lace

to her throat and shrug on

a mantle of white

until you come again.

River Blue

I’ve been making gay knights (and ladies) collages on my phone at work

(Part two)

#gay knights #knight x knight #knightcore #medievalcore #pre raphaelite #john william waterhouse #haz asked me to post them #these are in the order that I made them and it’s not even all of them…. #I’ve been having feelings.. about knights and all of that #i can’t tag all the painters I don’t remember them all #the app I used is the one in the watermark #for all your phone background needs #that was my initial goal and then it spiraled out of control #hold on let me add some more silly tags
