It really drives me nuts that I don't know a name for that particular type of "unperturbed woodcut face in the sun" style.
The "face in sun" thing is used in heraldry, so "sun in splendour" maybe kind of at least kind of encompasses it, but that doesn't entail the woodcut appearance.
Maybe there is no term, but it seems so distinctive and such a common element in art that I'd think that someone would have named it.
It certainly is common enough. You had me looking it up now myself. No luck though. 🤔
Currently have this on my phone. Someone posted it recently somewhere on lemmy and I'm a lesbian and my cat recently died so imagining her spooking around me warmed my heart a bit, even though I don't even believe in ghosts or anything like that ❤️🩹
On my desktop I have a black hole because i love the gravitational effect of seeing the accretion disc behind the black hole from the front of it
It’s my wife and me in front of the Magic Kingdom. Then I used an AI app to convert us to Muppets. I then used the iPhone wallpaper filters when putting it on my home screen.
Yep, I’m grown man with us as Muppets on my phone.
Love this!

I don't see it very much these days, as I'm using a tiling environment.
Using my own artwork because I'm genuinely happy with how it turned out and it reminds me of that awesome ttrpg campaign I was in

I cycle among these four randomly:
No idea where it came from. It's just been there for ages and followed from my previous phone before I took it swimming.

I went abroad to earn money and build a life for myself, I'm looking forward to moving back to my home country one day and having a house in a nice neighbourhood near family
A Pikmin wallpaper! I love pikmin and all things green, so I picked (or is that plucked? Hehe) this one and I love it! 😃
A solid black.
I changed the wallpaper once in a blue moon every time I set up a new device, these two from 4 years ago when I first bought the phone.
I always just search "Oled wallpaper" and it usually return somekind of astronout just because of the black element.
My desktop wallpaper is the default Windows 10 wallpaper, and occasionally something on Wallpaper Engine.
Generated by AI, changes every two hours.

I always found it amusing every time the HK fandom imploded when Team Cherry failed to show anything on a hyped showcase.

My phone's pixel art wallpaper was made in photoshop (turns out that's a really bad program for pixel art)
