The Giantess (The Guardian of the Egg)

Someone on Reddit user just dropped this one, no explanation and I had to save it. Which makes sense, because how do you explain this? A giant, a fragile egg, birds orbiting like thoughts. It’s protective and unsettling at the same time. Like a dream that doesn’t fully trust you.

When did art last move you?

Capture it before it fades.

Art experiences are fleeting. Capture the artwork, write one sentence, and keep the moment in your art journal.

That simple habit is the idea behind artjournal.ing.
