It may come as a surprise, but no AI was used for the generation of my own personalised starter pack. Available in (very) select stores just in time for dyking the halls at Christmas. Working on extension packs. Garden Butch. Gym Butch. DIY Butch.

Ok. So very limited interaction with my art. Here’s a cat whispering secrets into my ear.

Working out ideas with monoprints. This image speaks to the distortion caused by denial of lesbian existence —intimacy restrained, connection obscured. A slight touch of the hands, their passion dismissed. ‘They were just good friends’

This is a giant Thaumatrope, well not that big, small plate sized. Could I make a giant one that would need two burly people to operate, might need a risk assessment. Loving that it looks like stop motion animation. It is a bit flashy - sorry.

Exquisite in pink Exquisite Queer. Queer joy through physical defiance of norms. Gender Bound The plaid shirt is unravelled. Strong, androgynous, going against the mainstream pressures to conform to the herteronormative.
Two large paintings. One pink one black.

Platypus. Not bird enough. Not reptile enough. Too duck to be a beaver. Too furry to be a fish. A threat to classification I can relate to! I am platypus. Not everything relates to the binary. #IAmPlatypus #NonBinaryFinary #Printmaking #Linocut
