one of my final pieces from undergrad!
when i look at horses, i see a deep sadness in their eyes. they are such beautiful creatures capable of feeling such deep emotion, and we have repaid them by harnessing their strength as a means to an end. transportation, labor, and a vehicle to commit atrocities against other beings.
horses haven’t been canonized as a saint, but i pray to them nevertheless. so steadfast in their devotion to a master who sees them as disposable.

Decorable, a turn-based dating sim I made with my friends. We released a demo on itch!
It's your first semester of college, and everyone here is so cool! Spend your days going to class, working out, talking to your friends, and finding your personal style. Soon after moving into the dorms, you'll meet Maeby or Marcel and go on a date with them. The clothes you wear affect your stats!

the beginning of my exploration into horse girls and obsession. i have been reading the anthology "horse girls" by halimah marcus and was struck by the comparison between horse girls and religious fanatics. to be a horse girl is to wear it like a scarlet letter; she is weird, she is obsessive...but in her obsession she finds herself free from judgement and the male gaze. men hate her because she does not serve them. she serves a four legged god and finds salvation in the smell of hot musk, leather, and hay.

award-winning palestinian children's illustrator baraa awoor writes:

"what use is it to be an illustrator of children's books when the world has sentenced the children of your country to the death penalty, to vanish, to genocide?"
some of baraa's illustrations:

this is an illustration for youssef, whose mother is remembered running desperately into the hospital asking if anyone had seen a "small white boy with beautiful curly hair, his name is youssef," a description which was remembered by millions when she finally identified his body:

this illustration is for young omar, who was hugging his little brother and teaching him how to repeat the shahada after him (a prayer spoken by muslims before their death) as he lay on his hospital bed:
Tumblr media
"we want a new year that doesn't kill us or our children, we want it a year without blood, without screaming, without pain, we want a new attempt to get our lives back, or something that resembled our life, even if life is a lie we still cling to it, return life to us—a new year's card unlike any other year:"

is the interaction with art and the culture of expression considered consuming content. is reading poetry or going to an art museum considered consuming content. is listening to music considered consuming content. if watching sports is consuming content does going to a game constitute content consumption? is the implication of this poll that an accusatory finger is being pointed at you, the media consumer, suggesting that you need to interact with something other than art? how did watching a film devolve into “consuming” “content” rather than an honest interaction between a storyteller and a fellow human being? is reading a book the same type of hobby as watching tiktok? what is the purpose of dividing the ways we interact with the world into categories like this?

How do you get ideas for posing and character shapes and things like that? Ive been struggling with those things in my art recently
hi!! i struggled with this for the longest time too - i’m a pinterest/pose reference fiend just like many other artists, which has helped me create a database of go-to poses. i’ve recently been super obsessed with skin folds and contortion so i love posing for myself in mirrors and taking my own reference photos. jenny saville calls it “lending her body to herself.”
when it comes to character shapes, simple is better. i like to use big, gestural lines and basic shapes and go from there. since my characters are mostly dog like, ive spent hours studying photos of dogs and simplifying them / memorizing the curves of their form.
