(2016) EFS_2016 Aesthetic
Hey, everyone sorry for the kinda long hiatus. I'm back! And here's another addition to the Egotistical Fashion Studies. I drew this in 2016 after getting some new clothes and a sketchbook for Christmas.

(2016) EFS_Hot Fuss Era
This series (should we call it a series? yes?) developed from the fact that I love to draw myself, and I especially love to draw myself wearing cute outfits. Could you call it slightly egotistical? Sure! But honestly, I'll take anything that is consistently able to pull me out of art block. So there's that. And here are my Egotistical Fashion Studies!
I did this The Killers series where I tried designing myself an outfit that was similar to what Brandon Flowers wore during that album era. I've actually been working on it over a number of years, but I didn't want to post anything until I caught up to the newest album, which I now have done. I'll be posting all The Killers ones over the next couple of days. Yay!

This is a doodle I did of my Walt Disney World costume. I worked there for about 4 months as part of an internship called the Disney College Program. That experience resulted in tons of crazy anecdotes, but the costume was one of the best.
Also, Animal Kingdom was A DREAM and I will love it forever.

This piece is from the summer after my best friend dropped me like a sack of rocks and stopped speaking to me altogether. It was still hurting, and everyone in my college art classes was always talking about how they used their art to express themselves. I had A LOT I wanted to express. I felt like I couldn't talk about it with anyone; some of my friends didn't seem to care, while others almost seemed to agree with my friend's actions. I didn't care for that AT ALL, so I finally put all my anger/sadness/hurt down on paper.
When we presented our projects in class, I was so terrified of what everyone would think of my work. It felt like putting my heart up on display, which made me feel horribly vulnerable. But at the same time, that's what I wanted. I just wanted someone to understand how upset I was. My professor said the journal entries in the background first gave him the impression of a lovesick teenager, but by the time he read it all, he understood how real the pain was. Little bit of a mixed critique, but I took it.
It's not my favorite piece because it still holds a lot of emotions that I'd rather not look at too closely, but it did help to get them all out and to have people look at them. Sometimes I think I just need people to see me, to recognize and validate my emotions. I'm not always that great at talking about my feelings, so this was a good alternative.

(2016) SB 11_Happy, Squinty Boy
Hey!! I'm back! Sorry for the long hiatus there. I just got back from an art history study abroad. It was incredible and life changing and I miss it already. I'm not yet sure how the trip will affect my art; mostly I want to plaster gold leaf on everything. We'll see how that plays out.

These books are so good and Blue has so much to do with that.
