If you're into digital art, Adobe Fresco is your friend

Adobe Fresco is now available on the iPad and it's free... sort of. Android and Windows users will have to wait a little bit longer.

Creative Cloud subscribers can use the painting and illustration app for no additional cost while others can download a free version that has limited access to certain things like brushes, exporting and future updates. A standalone version of Fresco is also available for purchase at $9.99 a month, which comes with six months for free if you sign up by December 31st.

Kyle Webster, who works as senior design evangelist at Adobe, shares his thoughts on the app:

"I know that professional artists will find a lot to love in Fresco. But I'm just as eager to have kids and people who have never thought of themselves as artists try it. Fresco on iPad lets you experiment with materials that most novices would never have access to. You can try out different kinds of media and different techniques and if things don't turn out the way you expected, you can just undo and try something else. It's the kind of flexible and forgiving environment that I hope will lead lots more people to discover the joys of painting and drawing."

If you're into vintage erotic art, follow Cold Meat

It's not just the pictures of celebrities in skimpy outfits that makes Instagram interesting. But if those are the only people you follow, then you are missing out. The social media platform is full of some of the most talented artists of the moment, but one account that truly caught my eye is cold___meat , which is dedicated to vintage pictures of BDSM art and erotica. The account has been cancelled several times, but it's alive and kicking and is showing no sign of slowing down. Dazed recently interviewed Daryl, the mysterious founder of Cold Meat, to learn more about his background, his fear of another shutdown, and his mission to make "formerly clandestine and underground erotica available to a wider audience."

A visit to Beijing and a stay at the Sunrise Kempinski are now on my bucket list

Located on the shore of Yanqi Lake, the Sunrise Kempinski is housed in a bold, spherical structure that looks like a scallop from a side angle. It has 306 guest rooms and suites spread across 21 floors, and is covered with more than 10,000 glass panels which are meant to reflect the hotel's surrounding mountains, forestry and lake. Chief designer Zhang Hai Ao of Shanghai Huadu Architect Design Company collaborated with a team of more than 60 individuals from around the world to build the luxurious hotel. Its construction took two years, and required 9,300 workers to complete.

Meet Gary Hug, the backyard astronomer

The small shed behind Gary Hug's home in Topeka, Kansas looks like an ordinary barn. But at night, the structure becomes an observatory, which he built himself. Gary has so far discovered 294 asteroids (according to Wikipedia ) and has tracked countless others. Check out this interview from Great Big Story , a YouTube channel dedicated to the "untold, overlooked and flat-out amazing."
