Commission for @curufins-smile

This was such a fun commission!

“[Isabella of France] may be viewed sympathetically as a woman trapped in a loveless marriage, or unsympathetically as a murderous and over-mighty woman. Likewise, [Edward II] can be portrayed positively as a martyr for his sexuality, or in a condemnatory way as an effeminate homosexual. In most screen portrayals, the respective images of Edward and Isabella are directly linked; a positive presentation of the one usually appears at the expense of the other. Despite their both being victims of prevailing gender and sexual norms, it seems that neither can be defined except in opposition to the other.”

-Michael R. Evans, "Queering Isabella: She-Wolf of France in Film and Television", Premodern Rulers and Postmodern Viewers: Gender, Sex, and Power in Popular Culture

I did this super fun job a while ago for a promo for the new season of Big Brother!👁️ Lots of crazy guinea pig activity. The spot was directed by Tobias Fouracre, whom I couldn't be more grateful to for for coming up with weirder and cooler jobs each time.

Nidhogg's Eye for Magic: The Gathering and FINAL FANTASY collaboration AD: Merideth Mulroney Like many, I grew up playing FF, so it still feels surreal that I was so lucky as to paint for it. Meredith was incredibly kind to assign me a FFXIV illustration -- thank you again! The number of hours I sank into that game is ungodly.

My fave part of this tweet is that even though a lot of people are assuming this was an AI thing or whatever

this is the actual lede of their review of the Super Mario movie

"But it is also, if I check the clock, Mario Time". Poetry
