B&W iphone hack (the world should be more colorful than your phone)

having your phone be black and white makes every app 10x less addictive. i turn my phone on & off black and white depending on what i’m doing and there’s an easy way to switch back and forth in settings by triple clicking the side button: accessibility > general > accessibility shortcut > color filters and then you can go to color filters (just search it) and choose grayscale. i set mine at ~90% intensity so i can still see a hint of color. i love looking up from my phone and thinking “wow, the world is so colorful”

Color filters

Small thing that’s just helped me spend less time on my phone is switching everything to grayscale so it’s less fun to look at and it’s helped a lot. Makes my phone feel more like a tool and not an extension of my body. it’s somewhere in the accessibility menu on iPhone

“Just keep breathing”

My grandma’s word for word response when I asked her if she had any advice for living a long life. She lived to be 99 years old. Rest in Paradise Donna.

The paintings of tamara de LEMPICKa

I am obsessed with this Art Deco Extraordinaire, a Polish-born painter whose glamorous figurative compositions came to life in 1920s-30s Paris. Influenced by Cubism and Neoclassicism, her works—especially her portraits of women—blend beauty, strength, modernity, and a timeless cosmopolitan flair. After leaving Paris, she continued her career in New York, Hollywood, and Mexico, marking her as a truly international woman of her time. Stunning, just stunning!

THE MET COPYIST PROGRAM

Imagine trying to become a master painter in 1872 in New York and there's no high resolution images on google to study but there is a collection of European paintings at The Met so you go there to look at them and they actually let you set up an easel and make a copy for you to take back to your studio. This is how artists have been learning for centuries, by looking at art, painting stroke for stroke. This program is still running at The Met and you can apply! It’s so special, you enter through the education wing with your materials and tell the security guards that you’re in “The Copyist Program,” there’s a special room you store your work in progress. You have a 4’ x 4’ canvas tarp that you lay on the ground and for 4 hours once a week for 8 weeks that’s your special little island to work from. Then there’s the special thrill of carrying a wet painting through the museum halls. Very sacred, very special!
