sketch from late last night while with friends in tea shop, 12-20

from sketchbook, summer 2024

A sampler with a border of flowers and couples, done in brown-toned silks on a black ground.

As a break from doomscrolling and Thanksgiving stuff, a reposted thread on embroidery in historical and historically-inspired fantasy fiction. Something I really hate is the way it's often used in these genres to show that a female character is or isn't interesting.

hullo Duncan !!!!

screenshotted text reads: I would say that there exist a thousand unbreakable links between each of us and everything else, and that our dignity and our chances are one. The farthest star and the mud at our feet are a family; and there is no decency or sense in honoring one thing, or a few things, and then closing the list. The pine tree, the leopard, the Platte River, and ourselves—we are at risk together, or we are on our way to a sustainable world together. We are each other’s destiny.

from yesterday 🌞

A watercolor painting of Moo Deng, the baby hippo. She is running through some fall leaves. She’s got some fun colors used on her, like blue & orange. She’s in a sketchbook and surrounded by other pink pencil sketches of herself.
