I was lucky enough to be able to go to three, 2 hour blacksmithing sessions, fully funded by a local charity for adults with autism

Me and @leo-joy-hg.bsky.social having our first dance as Grace Petrie plays "Incompetent love song "
A black printed image on white paper. The image is of line work of two hands holding onto barbed wire. Between them is a pair of holding hands.
The same print but a wider shot, showing that the paper is balanced onto of a pile of clean laundry
A Problem Shared
I'm so pleased with this! I tried it in red too and I'm going to have a play. Now, if i could only get it central!!

A photographer of me, a transgender man, with ginger hair and blue glasses, wearing a black dress, smiling. I am standing next to a mixed media artwork hanging on the wall behind
Photo of the label for my art piece. It states the name of my work as Honour thy Trancestors, my name, pronouns and Instagram handle @@leo_joy_hg
A closer photo of my artwork. It is a piece of pink material, hanging from a large, rustic stick. The material is embroidered with all the laws that have directly impacted lgbt people in Britain in the last 1000 years, going from top to bottom. The embroidery at the top is barely visible as the thread matches the material. The thread gets darker and more visible lower down, as we get to more modern times. The material is also printed with a range of lgbt symbols in black. They include an equals sign, gender symbols, lavender, a carabena and a pocket with a hankie coming out.
Earlier this year, I took part in an art exhibition as part of #transprideBirmingham. See my Instagram (@leo_joy_hg) for details if you're interested #queerart #lgbtart #transart #mixedmedia #embroidery #linostamps #linoprinting #queerhistory #lgbthistory

A silver and black coloured, flat, metal pendant on a background colour of pink. The pendent is made to look like a bottle of testosterone
A photo of two transgender men. They are both smiling. The person on the left is wearing a backwards cap, sunglasses, a chunky chain necklace and a black t-shirt. He has his arm around the other person's shoulders. The person on right is wearing glasses, has a transgender flag painted on their face and is wearing a black t-shirt with the word fussy boy on it.
This is the pendant made by @mrsethcorbin.bsky.social and an old photo of both of us, at #transpridebrighton

A black printed image on a pink background. The image is of a bottle with a pump on top. The bottle has HRT and 16.2 written on it.
January this year, I joined a printing group through a local charity Art For All Mental Health. This was the first lino stamp I made! Based on a pendant (from the lovely Seth, HardWearUK) which was based on the type of testosterone we are prescribed. Made with soft lino and oil based ink

I had to fight to be diagnosed as autistic but it was one of the best things I've ever done! It has enabled me to not work, finally, fully attempt recovery, rediscover hobbies, find hope and even begin to dream again!
