Art recs! (and something about podfics...)
Aug. 7th, 2010 04:53 pmMy god there are some talented people around. I adore looking at artworks. Here's some that I've seen recently that I love:
Dean, can you see something? by the incredible
petite_madam. I love everything she does. This is adorable and yet... there's this little hint of menace. (make sure to enlarge it to read the text *g*) Wonderful.
The Winchester Brothers by
becc_j. Wow! Look at those boys! How much do they suit a Western? Love the detail in this painting. Striking.
BB art for The Hollow Valley Seriously creepy, intense and evocative. Love it.
I'm listening to
veronamay's priest!fic have you seen him whom my soul loves (finally! I've had it bookmarked forever) and I'm loving it. I worried at first because I wasn't sure how I would go listening to a New Zealand accent but the reader,
nu_breed, reads so well I've been swept up in it. She has such a lovely comforting manner (you can almost see her smiling as she reads it) that the accent doesn't matter.
I have, unfortunately, not been able to listen to some podfics because of either a very strong accent (Sam and Dean with cockney type accents just hasn't been able to work for me) or a speech pattern that's, um... annoying. I absolutely hate to criticise podfic readers because what they do is wonderful and amazing. But I suppose not everybody's voice will suit every listener.
I've discovered that I love being read to. I wonder if this is because I was read to a lot as a child? There's something innately comforting about it.
We're seeing Inception tonight! \o/ (Everybody has raved about it so I'm a little worried I'm going in with very high expectations... and then will be disappointed. But I'm sure it will as awesome as everyone is claiming).
Hope you are all having a great weekend. :)
