Wednesday DPP: The Artfic

[pennyante.livejournal.com]

I'm fonder of Lisa Turtle than of this image. But I wonder if it's inspired any artfic?

I’m caught up in words. I don’t know anything about pictures. Can’t draw anything, can’t say much about art; my brain is as baffled by Picasso’s “Guernica” as by a picture of a baby tapir. But sometimes I see something and it grabs me around my chest and squeezes. And, just lately, sometimes I see something, and I couldn’t say why, but I think:  Love. Pain. Betrayal. Hope. Salvation. War. Pilots.

Sometimes it feels good to look at things without words. Which is why a lot of us are inspired by music. But how ‘bout “artfic”? Could that be a thing? Are there any in our shipperdom? Should there be? Should we commission them from each other?


Winslow Homer, "The Life Line" -- I don't know, it just does something pilot-y to my brain.

Have you ever seen an image and thought, yes, this, this is making my brain tickle with inspiration?

Today:  share an image that makes you think of pilots! Painting and crayon scrawl, snapshot and sculpture—whatever. Accompanying drabbles, or general pilot!impressions that go with ‘em, welcome.

Warning:  In the comments below, I’m gonna share an image that is borderline NSFW. (And hope somebody wants to write pilot!artfic about it.)
