I took part in the @palestaticexchange! And was matched with @visismu who asked for anything with Disco Elysium's female cast. Upon scouring her blog for clues, I saw that she wanted to see more art of Elizabeth Beaufort, aka "Lizzy", aka the "union fixer". Which seemed like an excellent opportunity to draw her as more law-graduate and less "just a gardener". Because I fully believe she'd be a power-dresser, even for casual meet-ups with the Hardies.

I'm thinking abt that pretty fall leaves embroidery pattern post and about how like... it is categorically a repost, it's a reupload. right? a thing that is generally disliked. but because it's credited, it's genuinely boosting the artist in question. and it could ALWAYS be like this. reposting content could ALWAYS be a symbiotic relationship, but because sourcing back to the original creator of something is so uncommon, it's just easier to ask people not to repost it at all. and people still don't understand the difference. or they'll go to the effort of cropping out usernames/signatures to repost something, which is More Effort than literally crediting the creator of something you liked enough to want to repost. Like. I literally don't actually care if my own shit gets reposted, you have to understand. I just don't want it STOLEN. But "do not repost" is easier to write on my art than "you can repost this, but don't alter the image/remove my signature, don't you dare write 'credit goes to the artist' because that is not credit, please link back to my original post or someplace that you can actually find me. please use an actual link/url instead of writing a non-clickable link of my username, because making it text instead of a clickable link cuts the number of people who will go to the effort of visiting my own page in Half." All those aggregate themed accounts, those fuckin annoying as hell instagrams and facebook groups that are like "body positive art we love wamen 💕 hashtag feminism" and then MASS-STEAL plus sized art created by women, if pages like these that always go and steal my older self-portraits and other works... If they just put a link to my prints of those pieces in the text of those posts, or, fuck, my commission info page? I would literally be living on the moon right now. I would have a house on the moon

I'm so proud of this set, it was a pleasure not only to work with @lacemadeofficial (Instagram) again but to showcase their designs with artistic freedom. I felt like a wistful princess dreaming of a far off love.

From the Archives: Cosplay the Classics: Greta Garbo

My closet cosplay of Greta Garbo based on her styling c. 1928-9

Commemorating 96 years since the release of The Mysterious Lady (1928), here's a little throwback from the archives!

Six years ago (early in my closet cosplaying days) I put together these self portraits and a short essay inspired by Greta Garbo's styling in 1928-9. The essay is a little paean to the construction of Garbo's glamour and star image:

Read more here!

While the look was inspired by Garbo's hair/makeup styling for The Mysterious Lady and The Kiss (1929), the photographs themselves were very loosely inspired by Edward Steichen's 1928 portraits of Garbo. (And when I say loosely, I mean loosely! My mind blanked on Steichen's name when I sat down in front of the camera, so I couldn't pull up reference images. These photos were exclusively based on my memory of the photos at the time! 😬)

Collage of the Steichen portraits I had in mind when I took my photos
