higu rose, Ph.D (30 or 40 years old)

please do something. anything. please at least today educate yourself about the Balfour Declaration (signed in 1917) and the Mandate for Palestine (drafted in 1919). it's been 100+ years. that's how far back this injustice goes. the world has watched for a century. it should not still be happening

a panel from my entry in Samidoon. it is sepia tone of a palestinan family walking. the caption reads "in 2024, the images from inside Gaza echo my family's storie from Palestine. the walk away from our tattered homes looks the same as 50 years ago." the 2024 is crossed out witht 2025 written next to it. my hands are shaking with rage and grief as i type

my hands are shaking with rage and grief. i shouldn't have to do this. the edited text on this image should not exist. this should not still be happening in 2025

Sometimes having to do art for work is good practice but it is always a pain because i hate using procreate (program we use to teach)

digital lineart drawing of four YINZ CITY characters all wearing the same outfit. from left to right: Dominique, Nabokov, Kit, and Isaiah. the outfit is composed of a short sleeved mockneck, high waisted pants, and black boots. the characters all have different body types so the outfit is styled slightly differently on each. the bottom right corner is signed “higu rose 2025”

boss requested an example of diff ppl wearing the same outfit, heres the YINZ CITY baristas + isaiah (cafe alumni). hands are above my dayjob pay grade. now with alt text. RIP image compression

Ive never lived in boston but i imagine every day is spent trying not to get run over by the nightmare drivers (all of them)

Two hours spent brushing out my hair brings me two hours spiritually closer to committing to letting it loc up however it wants

Im so glad you liked it 🥹 and so happy youre still reading about these FREAK losers……… solidarity to all us fools downing the chaos edibles…………

A ~14” scrappy quilt. The center is a friendship star block with log cabin-style piecing surrounding it.

A closeup of the quilt so you can see the grid quilting and fabric patterns.

Okaaaaay heres my FRIENDSHIP CABIN, inspired by a prompt from a friend: “a thing you love about your childhood self that you feel slightly distant from and maybe want to reconnect with”. Tried to use mostly stash and scraps for it.
