Anyone else have any horrible school(or even work)-related frustrations they want to release before they curl into fetal position and cry for thirty hours like I'm about to? :D

Ah, picture books, great stuff. Personally, I prefer my picture books to be a little more macabre.

...and, of course, the ultra-rare Alice in Wonderland illustrated by Salvador Dali.

But those are from the works by other authors. I mean the ORIGINAL picture books. For example:

Now THAT is one great picture book. But then, most of Scieszka's books are!

Graduating? Wow! Hey, that reminds me, you know about Dr. Seuss?

CellarDoor... You live in a garret and study French at the Sorbonne. You send most of your days sitting in cafes in the Quartier Latin smoking gitanes and discussing poetry with beautiful raven-haired women... don't you? 😕

LOVE the albums you have just bought though... I think you will have some fun with them :D

😁

Don't worry MSS, when I'm not studying, I usually stroll along les quais de Seine, a Verlaine poetry book under my left arm and my sketch book in the other. I'll stop in my favorite bistrot and watch people come and go.
I then slowly walk back up to my small mezzanine which, though small, has the most beautiful view on the Tour Eiffel.
I love the parisian night life, and I often meet up with a bunch of friends to discuss around a glass of red wine the links between the recurring theme of flowing water in Tarkovski's filmography and the color yellow in Monet's last years.

Oh, all this is when I'm not in Marseille :wink:

And the world is back to how it should be... 🤣

Neural networks are hardly considered fine art, though there is a certain beauty in the complexity of the brain.

But yes, I study aux Beaux-Arts de Paris on my free time 😉
