Household Objects Cross-Stitched by Ulla Stina Wikander
Swedish designer Ulla Stina Wikander uses household appliances and cooking tools as the base to her cross-stitched sculptures, bestowing outdated objects with a new life. Most of the items come from the 70s, yet the patterns she covers their bodies in are much older. For more check out her website and Instagram.

I didn’t know cheetahs meow I’ve always thought they roar my whole life has been a lie
Ok but the other one is purring so hard
If I ever don’t reblog this assume I’m dead
Fun fact: technically, because of its inability to roar and its ability to purr, the cheetah is not a ‘big cat’ (or Great Cat) - they are still classified as Lesser Cats.
Also you haven’t heard anything until you hear them cheep.

Edvard Munch - Self-Portrait with Cigarette [1895] by Gandalf
Via Flickr:
In this self-portrait, Edvard Munch has depicted himself with his face turned to the viewer. The artist’s face and hands seem almost luminous against a dark, shapeless background. This highlighting of Munch’s hands and head is striking, and for an artist these parts of the body are especially significant. At the centre of the composition, Munch’s right hand is raised to his chest, covering his heart. His intense gaze is directed straight at the viewer, but he is looking just as much into himself and his own universe. The artist is lit from below but seems also to emit his own internal light. Together with the diffuse background and the cigarette smoke, this gives the picture a touch of mystery.[National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design, Oslo - Oil on canvas, 110.5 x 85.5 cm]
