Hi! I'm Kaeli, a 15-year-old from Texas with a penchant for obsessively editing other people's spelling and grammar instead of having a social life. I've been lurking on Wikipedia for about a month now and editing as Anonymous, so I decided it was about time for me to create an account. I really like writing, music, and drawing. I have synesthesia (specifically, chromesthenia) meaning that hearing music or sounds causes me to see correlating colors and patterns. I enjoy urban exploration, although there's no good locations near me so I usually end up on urbex forums, instead. I live near NASA and have grown up in an area rich with a healthy, astronomy-centered science program, and I have lots of experience and interest in the field. I have fairly high confidence in my spelling ability and knowledge of various types of music, so that's mostly what I'll be editing on here.
The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne is an oil-on-panel painting by Leonardo da Vinci, painted around 1501 to 1519. It depicts Saint Anne, her daughter the Virgin Mary, and the infant Jesus. Christ is shown grappling with a sacrificial lamb on the edge of a precipice, symbolizing his Passion. It is likely that the painting was commissioned by King Louis XII of France following the birth of his daughter Claude in 1499, but it was never delivered to him. Leonardo explored incorporating these figures together through preparatory works including the Burlington House Cartoon, now in the National Gallery, London, and a drawing which resides in the Louvre, Paris. The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne is also in the Louvre.Painting credit: Leonardo da Vinci
My Tumblr is grungefrnk, so please feel free to follow me on there! Also, I'm currently questioning my gender and such, so for now, I would like to try it/its pronouns (example: This is its page. It likes to play music.) This is mostly because I don't feel very comfortable being labeled a boy or a girl, and I have no interest in using neopronouns (xe, hir, nouns as pronouns, etc) or they/them, which I feel has a primary function as a plural pronoun. If you absolutely cannot bear to use it/its, standard female pronouns would work too, I guess. Please feel free to leave me something on my talk page! Thanks!
