This cover of a song by the Meat Puppets from Nirvana's Unplugged album has my favourite guitar solo of all time.

José Benlliure y Gil  (1858-1937)

José Benlliure y Gil was a Spanish painter.
The painting is called La Barca de Caronte (The Barque of Charon) 1919, oil on linen.
Charon, of course, is the ferryman of Hades in Greek Mythology who carries the souls of the newly departed across the rivers Styx and Acheron that divide the world of the living from the world of the dead.

Karla Ortiz is a fine art painter, illustrator and concept artist. Her bio is as thin as my own but her work speaks volumes. I just love her graphite drawings and game card illustrations. To make sure I won't miss out on anything new I'm following her facebook page now. Below is a link to her website and more outstanding work.

Hugh Howey Beacon 23, Markus Walter blog
For centuries, men and women have manned lighthouses to ensure the safe passage of ships. It is a lonely job, and a thankless one for the most part. Until something goes wrong. Until a ship is in distress. In the twenty-third century, this job has moved into outer space. A network of beacons allows ships to travel across the Milky Way at many times the speed of light. These beacons are built to be robust. They never break down. They never fail. At least, they aren't supposed to.
I'm an avid reader, going through a book a week. For some time now, nothing's stood out. Until this week. Even if you are not a sci-fi fan, this is a very good read.

Back in the day when one still went down to the local record store to buy a whole album of the band you liked, I picked up a couple of records because the cover artwork looked fantastic. I didn't know the band but I knew I had to have those records not even caring what the music was like. The artwork was done by Simon Larbalestier and The Pixies remain one of my favourite bands to this day.
