Me: Oooh, I haven't done a Myfanwy & Friend for a while.
-
I'm a little late to the party with this but just had a terrific time perusing the hashtag. If I might be so bold (and apologies if you've already done), I'm quite fond of cheery Swiss painter Arnold Böcklin. Particularly 'Self-Portrait with Death Playing the Fiddle', or perhaps 'Plague'? Or...perhaps marginally less insane, something by Gustav Klimt?
@TheBreadmonkey Ooooh. Self-Portrait with Death Playing the Fiddle is definitely a go-er
-
@TheBreadmonkey Right, I'm off to look up Arnold Böcklin as he's not one I know.
I am mildly concerned if Klimt is the sensible option mind you, I think he was my one absolute disaster
Sorry! That was very inconsiderate of me. Bear with.....

https://beige.party/@TheBreadmonkey/111126522590491577@TheBreadmonkey Dammit, I think both of them are going to have to go on the list. The Plague is barmy, and will officially be in the "challenging" category but too good not to try (I'm thinking Friend flying on Myfanwy and there are a LOT of questions there).
I don't know how he'd passed me by - do love finding a new artist (particularly one where you can get high res versions to play with)
btw you might be entertained by this Goya

Me: Oooh, I haven't done a Myfanwy & Friend for a while. That would be a nice change. I could put the call out on Mastodon for suggested artworks, book covers or posters to parody.
Also me: I need to post a picture if I'm asking for suggestions for pictures.
I am aware this makes NO SENSE, however when I had a quick look for new films I found this monstrosity so, that's a thing.
Anyway, taking suggestions for new #MyfanwyAndFriend pics below. Thanks!
@eclectech now there's a first lady I can respect! (Or was the knitted egg first? Anyway, I digress).
Brain is stubbornly refusing to come up with any good suggestions tonight, but I'm looking forward to seeing more Myfanwy and Friend.
-
@TheBreadmonkey Ah thanks. I think it doesnt work for me cuz i don't allow public searching. Back to being a dumdum!

@eclectech I think Myfanwy and friend would fit in great in some paintings by swedish painter Carl Larsson, like "Breakfast under the big birch" for example (which is the first painting if you scroll down to the artworks).

So I can search all posts where you and I have interacted. You should be able to freely search all of your own.
For me to search you I do
From:@Akki
And then I could leave it blank or put a space then a keyword, or before:2026-01-01 for example.
When I search me I just search
From:me (and then usually a keyword)

Huge thanks all. Have a few possibilities now. Spent so long going on poster hunts and down artist rabbit holes I don't actually have time to make anything else today, but they will come!
Do feel free to keep suggesting things, I'm happy with a long list of nonsense for when my brain is aimless but I need distracting
