A charcoal drawing pinned to a white wall with clear pushpins. A teapot with a short spout on the left sits against a heavily smudged dark background, its open lid swung up and back on a hinge at the upper right. The teapot and lid are left as pale, streaky paper where the charcoal was lifted or left out. Below the drawing, a small white card reads "Introduction to Drawing, with Tina Oehmsen-Clark". Edges of other charcoal drawings show above and to the right. — a teapot - 24 Sep, 2026 at 9:02 PM

A vintage chrome clothes iron with a black handle stands upright on its heel on top of a tan shoebox with a black "MAG creative footwear" band. The box sits on a paint-spattered stool in an art studio with worn wooden floorboards. A table draped in purple cloth with an upturned stool on top is behind it, and wooden easels and stools fill the background. — an iron - 24 Sep, 2026 at 6:21 PM

A charcoal drawing on white paper clipped to a paint-spattered wooden easel. Four studies of the upright iron are arranged in a loose grid, each drawn by shading the dark space around and inside it: blocky outlines with smudged grey sides, a narrow dark slot where the gap in the handle is. Two long horizontal lines run across the upper half of the page. — the iron, four times - 24 Sep, 2026 at 6:50 PM

A charcoal drawing on white paper held by a yellow clip and a metal bulldog clip on a paint-spattered wooden easel. Dark charcoal fills a squarish block in the lower two-thirds of the page, leaving the splayed legs and crossbar of an upturned stool as white paper in the shape of an H. Easels, stools, and a purple-draped table are visible in the studio behind. — an upside-down stool - 24 Sep, 2026 at 7:15 PM

A painted wall in an alley at night. Along a white-painted strip at the base of the wall, a row of small black silhouettes walks in single file on a thin wavy line: a rider on a horse, a pony, and a line of figures with packs, bows, and an axe, led by a tall figure with a pointed hat and a staff. Handwritten to the right: "@DEWUCME 26, Fellowship of the Ring". Above, grey brick with blue, pink, and black graffiti; below, a concrete floor with dry leaves and faded stencilled lanterns. — undefined - 19 Sep, 2026 at 7:54 PM

Sheets of white paper are pinned to a white wall, each holding a charcoal drawing of a vessel. The largest sheet, at centre, shows a wide mug with a looping handle on its left side, shaded in soft grey with faint construction lines still running through the form and a small dark saucer sketched beside its base. Above it, a cropped sheet shows the foot and round base of a goblet. To the right, a rounded jug with a short neck is drawn over ruled vertical and horizontal guidelines, and below that a smaller pitcher is sketched in loose outline. A deep red wall runs down the left edge of the frame. — a mug - 17 Sep, 2026 at 8:47 PM

A black-and-white photo looking up at a shelf from a low, couch-level angle. Four posters hang on the wall: a grid of tiny illustrated trees, a striped optical-perspective print, a painting of a woman resting a katana on her shoulder against a city skyline, and a Caribou Honey poster. Below, a record shelf holds vinyl upright, with If I Could Make It Go Quiet by girl in red turned face-out, a hooded figure lit from within. In front sit an orchid, a small R2-D2 card, a framed photo of trees, and a light box reading TWENTY PAST EIGHT.

A clear glass vase of cut flowers stands on a cluttered table in a sunlit room. The bouquet holds two round yellow marigolds, ruffled pale-blue carnations, tall white and blush snapdragons, and small orange daisies among green foliage. Afternoon light comes through a window on the right, past a potted plant on the sill. In the background at left, a low bookshelf holds a white-and-red Polaroid camera above a dark TV screen and rows of books. On the table in front are magazines, a small devotional prayer card, and two cups holding pens, brushes, and markers. — undefined - 9 Aug, 2026 at 4:00 PM

It shows a woman with flowing teal-blue hair and a crown of yellow flowers, holding an orange cocktail glass aloft in one hand; oranges, plums, and blossoms spill across her white robe.
