Richard Schmid is an amazing contemporary artist, whose books (specifically “Alla Prima II”) I often feel tempted to buy, but the price is quite high even for used copies (~$150-200), so I still haven’t bought it yet. For me, it’s still very expensive. By the way, in the book, he shows the process of creating his works layer by layer.

I published a new article on my hybrismart. Just imagine, you have a website (frontend + backend) and they are exchanging requests, and you want to change a request on the fly — the parameters or even the JSON that is sent or received from the server back to the browser, all without altering the website’s code. Theoretically, the site might not even be yours 🙂 The reasons can vary — perhaps to test a concept before asking developers to implement it properly, to swap the actual response with a template one, to enable debugging through some debug parameter, to simulate an erroneous/invalid API response, or to remove or alternatively set some headers. For all of this, there isn’t a straightforward free solution “out of the box.” I had to create one myself. The article includes analysis and code that can be used.
Today in the news, the UK is abuzz with controversy over the new official portrait of King Charles III by Jonathan Yeo. It is quite contentious. However, after the portrait of the Queen painted from life by Lucian Freud, which also faced significant criticism, the British have continued to invite artists who love to experiment. So, Jonathan Yeo. He actually has some good paintings. I am attaching some of them, and at the end, the controversial portrait of Charles. The artist probably thought that if he made a simple official portrait in a classic style, it wouldn’t garner the needed attention. Well, he wasn’t wrong.
