Three long years have passed since Ari F started this bog with a hopeful project in her mind. She had time to publish only a few introductory pages and six posts from 2015/11/06 until 2016/01/07, but left many drafts more or less complete –which I edited, sometimes finished, and published for her in her name. Many of… Continue reading Three years of ‘Something Beyond’

A Painting with Soul: ‘Morning After II’ by Alyssa Monks
I recently posted a fragment of this oil painting by Alyssa Monks –Morning after II– on my personal blog (here. I’m also using it now as a header pic for my “posts page”, with a touch of green and violet added), but I am sure Ari would have posted it differently; better than me; like… Continue reading A Painting with Soul: ‘Morning After II’ by Alyssa Monks
Xan mo ilo! – Eat my heart!
Xan mo ilo, kamlale! Pale si ma e zhivindi jag… These are Rromani words meaning “Eat my heart, my beloved ones! While I still keep the flame of life…” So why do I want my heart eaten?… How?… By whom?… To the first –rhetorical– question my answer is simple: because I need love now beyond… Continue reading Xan mo ilo! – Eat my heart!
Should I Fear a Dreadful Angel? – A republication of my first post here
Revisiting tonight this blog of my late sister (in a late hour of the night, too), I find that my first post here, from August 16th, 2016, precedes directly my last one, published just a while ago. Both of them speak about the same —or almost—… Eight months and ten days ago, three days after… Continue reading Should I Fear a Dreadful Angel? – A republication of my first post here
Girl in Wasteland… – Another Delightful Illustration
“Better Tomorrow” by Yuumei Here down is another illustration by this great Chinese artist: Yuumei. I post it in vertical position for evident reasons of format: – – Two enlarged partial views in their natural position 🙂 : – – – (You may see and enjoy a previous post on Yuumei’s work HERE.)… Continue reading Girl in Wasteland… – Another Delightful Illustration
A Variation on “Showing off Long Legs” – Made for boys
– I think this mod is better -it is also cheaper- than the original set: it is super cheap 🙂 Does anybody wish to make a comment? Does anybody opine that boys may aspire to look cute, dressing chic and girl-like?… Shouldn’t boys (and grown men) dress like they feel like dressing, disregarding all social… Continue reading A Variation on “Showing off Long Legs” – Made for boys
Showing off long legs (in b&w, or dark blue)
Black and white clothes and make-up allow more prominence to the main feature here: some very long and slender legs -the model shown is 5′ 11″ and her legs are stunning, but if you are over 5′ 7″ or 5′ 8″, shortie shorts and mini-skirts -with legs naked- use to be a great and delightful… Continue reading Showing off long legs (in b&w, or dark blue)
Angry, Surly and Revolted (but much in Love) – Ari’s Fashion (XII)
Dressing more or less this way, yes: oversized clothes (two sizes over), no underwear, a lot of makeup and nail polish, and no words for anybody. Heck you all -especially You-! Ari Fontrodona – (Very long ago… :/) – Surly and Revolted, but much in Love by ari-shej featuring blue denim jeans – Save
Ari’s Fashion (XI) – A Summer Night’s Fancy
A caprice of mine in pink & mint, with fireworks, never seen shoes, lovely skirt and jacket… and one Hindu prince at my side, smiling and holding my hand 🙂 (May I add that that Prince couldn’t ever be (unfortunately!) Prince Dakkar -Captain Nemo, for those who do not recognize the name-…? I wish… Continue reading Ari’s Fashion (XI) – A Summer Night’s Fancy
Still life and still death
Illustrating old dead roots into the sand – young still flesh; branches and leaves – oddly lightened [Dedicated to the bewitching memory of my sister, who was fond of T. S. Eliot -and entirely inspired by her physical absence nowadays] – What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow Out of this stony rubbish?… Continue reading Still life and still death
