My last piece from 2022, in which I tasked myself for some reason to a redraw of la belle dame sans merci with my favs. Closing off the year with this art piece was a little major for me (backgrounds ugh) but super excited to get into 2023 with renewed creative vigour!!
Now, I don’t know what Charles put in your head, but I am not whatever it is you think I am, okay? I only met you, like, a week ago. You got your Rebecca, your Delilah, your blah, blah, blah, whatever. Everything you asked for, you’ve got it! And it is better this way. Because I suck at this. Bad shit happens to people I care about, you understand me?
Grace Kelly, Veronica Lake, Frank Sinatra, James Cagney, Hedy Lamarr, and Edward G. Robinson (optional!) 🎬
Grace Kelly: What do you do when you’re bored? read obsessively and waste far too much time on tumblr and zone out plotting stories in my head
Veronica Lake: List some random facts about your physical appearance. my measurements give me a textbook hourglass figure and that pleases me way more than it should. my grandmother’s rings skipped over my mom directly to me bc i was the only one with small enough fingers for them. i have to wear petite glasses frames (which i did not know were a thing) bc apparently my face, like my hands, is small despite me being a very average sized person otherwise.
Frank Sinatra: What countries would you like to visit? i want to go back to italy and greece so badly.
James Cagney: What would you call your autobiography? i always wanted to write an account of the years working at the lake and call it Sane in Insane Places, after the rosenhan experiment, which was a psych study that largely critiqued how we go about psychiatric diagnostics and pathologize different behaviors based on biases
Hedy Lamarr: As a child, did you have one article of clothing that you absolutely loved (like wouldn’t take it off type of thing)? What was it? i never had a wouldn’t take it off type item of clothing but one of my Special Outfits was a very pretty blue dress with flowers on it made from a flowy material that i dubbed the Maria Dress bc it reminded me of this dress in the sound of music i still have it in a trunk somewhere
Edward G. Robinson: Draw a self portrait. (optional!) thank god bc it is 9pm and i def don’t have time for that right now but may do so in the future! there actually does exist a self portrait of me that i did many many years ago which i’ll post if i can find the damn thing again lol
i…tolerate my name. it doesn’t quite fit but i’m too lazy to try and start going by anything else or get anyone to call me anything else but it /is/ about the worst time on earth to be named karen djsfdskdjfh
thinking about the fairy tale trope of a kiss from your true love having magical properties and how often these kisses are used to wake up characters who are asleep or in some state of suspended animation or give them back something they lost. thinking about fitz walking around half-forged and detached from his own emotions until the fool kisses him and gives him back all of those memories and emotions effectively “waking him up” again and giving him back something he’d lost. and by thinking i of course mean i am screaming incoherently.
