Incredible Laurencin painting 'In the Studio' gallery rn: Portraits, 1915 (Laurencin w/ Cecilia de Madrazo & Coco the dog). Painted while she was in exile in Spain during WWI (because she married a German). So much is done with just tones pink & grey. https://t.co/EpXUtkTVzL

Exciting Hepworth show alert! Here is my favourite of hers from . Nude on yellow background (1949), graphite and oil on gesso-prepared board. Details show the variety of line from soft & surface graphite to deeply scored hatching in the gesso & board. https://t.co/I61xZyULBO

Late night work, fully immersed in 18th c Venice & my fave GB Tiepolo drawing (c.1760). The wash is so perfectly controlled, the ink marks are both blurred and precise. It is both silly and beautiful.

This morning's content Ida Applebroog & her series 'Mercy Hospital' (1969-70): 5 notebooks filled with from the artist's time in psychiatric care. Applebroog shares this work as a way to demystify illness & empower exploration of inner realities through making.

Been a bit fashion obsessed lately. Today building a lecture on propaganda of absolute monarchy & Louis XIV (age 14) declaring himself the sun in a 13-hr long, overnight ballet (Le ballet de la nuit, 1653) seems to be a good example. Louis's costumes by Henri de Gissey.
