A grid of six illustrations. First, a trans woman in traditional Jewish clothing does embroidery outside. Second, a Korean couple kisses, with the one in men's clothing showing in the mirror as her true transfemme self. Third, a Polish gay couple wear traditional clothing, one of which is transmasc. Fourth, a transmasc person with his chest bound in cloth gets a hand-poked tattoo on a sailing ship. Fifth, a T4T Victorian couple share a kiss on the nose as they find euphoria in swapping their clothing. And lastly, a transmasc person sews his own clothing, reclaiming the traditionally feminine craft for himself.

🏳️‍⚧️ Trans joy and resilience is more important than ever. Here’s a glimpse into a few of the historical illustrations of trans people thriving, loving, and being loved in our queer history art book! 🏳️‍⚧️

A greyscale print of a man on his back next to a foot in a boot A greyscale print of a man hanging upside down

tried out tetrapak intaglio printing!

milk cartons can be used for intaglio printing instead of metal plates - after inking, the shiny metallic parts end up printing in grey, and parts where the metal layer has been scratched away absorb ink and print a dark black.

A print of a humanoid sun & moon printed from a zinc plate. The print is black and white with a slight purple tint. The moon figure has stylised top surgery scars on his chest. They are floating in space, surrounded by planets and space dust.

A piece of paper with a print printed from a stone using the stone lithography method. It is in dark purple ink, of a painted figure, which is fairly minimalistic with bold brushmarks A flat rectangular stone with an ink painted figure on it, fairly minimalistic with bold brushmarks

Here is the other stone lithograph print that I made last weekend! This one was painted in ink and then printed by hand with a bone folder, which surprisingly worked a lot better than I expected.

A black and white lino print of an ancient greek vase depicting a line drawing of a trans man carrying a massive cartoonish dick

I came across this ancient greek vase of a woman carrying a massive dick, which of course lends itself perfectly to a transmasc reinterpretation - and here is the resulting lino print! 🏺

A black and white, blue tinted print of two feet in sock garters. Two hands are visible adjusting the garters.

Continuing in the tradition of JC Leyendecker and his gorgeous be-socked men, I spent my last few printmaking studio seasions making sock garter mezzotint prints!

Knight oc Wreg posed similar to Klimt's painting 'Danaë': in almost fetal position in nude, with blissful expression on his face. He's younger than usual, so he has flowing long hair draping over his shoulder. There are various pieces of armor scattered around him, a feather, harebell, and manuscript depicting ginger man. One of the gauntlets is pressing into his calf.

Knight and Dream

(loose study of Klimt - Danaë)

A white person’s hand holding up a blue and yellow riso printed zine. The zine has a yellow funicular on the cover, going up a hill, with the silhouette of two men leaning against each other in one of the windows. The title reads ‘echoes of the past’ a g̶h̶o̶s̶t̶ love story by Andreas L. (me). Behind this, another zine is open, showing an interior page of two men kissing. All on a white cloth backdrop.

Got my queer funicular zine from the printers! 🚃💛 In 'Echoes of the Past', a funicular driver meets the ghost of a man from a century past and a fragile relationship blooms over a series of encounters. 16 pages, riso printed in yellow & blue, available in my shop rejka.bigcartel.com!

THE RUFF - b&w pen and ink drawing of a beautiful 1570-90s dude (i can't remember sry), the subject is looking away from the viewer and we can see his magnificent lace-trimmed ruff, the askew cloak, and a hat with three trailing pheasant feathers KNIGHT OF THE MORNING STAR - a close-up of a knight from behind. he is in resplendent armor from roughly the mid-16th century with a lovely sun and lots of italian filigree. He is looking over his right shoulder, his sword aloft, the moon looming large behind him. KNIGHT OF THE TAPESTRY - a knight in late gothic armor from the waist down. he stands upon a tiled floor, his sabotons are crazy pointed and he's got the spurs. a heavily patterned cloak trails on the floor behind him. SHIVERING - ST. SEBASTIAN - st sebastian tied up to a tree,innit. really tumultuous clouds with a lot of heavy shading roll in the background over a dark, dense line of mountains.

shout out to some of my favorite works from my ornament series, all of which are partly why my arm is so fucked up 😎
