#10'x14'

[2dmax]

🍊🦋 watercolor, ink, etc. on paper - 10"x14"

wanted to practice some of what i learned in water colors class, but with my own taste. it's really hard to get the sky as blue as i want... also credit to @kchloewhite for help in the art critique server, especially the shape of the rock, which i stole outright from a sketch she did for me 😅 @manasseh also tried to help with anatomy but i ignored them because i'm too lazy 💔😔

[0ddoblivion]

She???? is????? amazing?????? I don't have the words to express how cute she is and how much she'd be flying off the shelves at Castle Faz. The number one ticket item for sure

Seeing something 3D made??? based off some words I wrote on google docs and drew a few pictures of is wild. I don't have the ability to do any 3D crafts my brain cannot handle it, yet somehow through your ability and trial and error and sheer determination she exists???? The Princess is here with us <3 <3 <3 I'm so beyond grateful. Thank you for this triumphant blessing. I hope my words can relay even a fraction of the joy I'm feeling right now.

As an aside, as someone who doesn't know how to craft at all, the instructions read like a code??? Which I find is so funny. I'll discover the secret in the instructions, mark me

10 minute

workout routine ☆

here's how i actually shrank my ribcage (i know, i didnt think it was even possible).

before +after (bmi 17.5)

maybe im hallucinating and there's not a huge difference, but my bmi is roughly the same in these two pictures, taken less than a week apart after starting this new routine.

i was cursed with wide hips and a wide ribcage, so i've spent a lot of nights crying about how no matter how much a loose i'll be a box forever :,) but i put my trust in those youtube girlies who post aesthetic workout vids and found some that actually worked. this whole thing usually takes me less than 10mins, and i try to do it daily.

breathing (x14)

lie face up on the floor (or your bed if youre feeling lazy) and take a deep breath. when you breathe out exhale everything and pull your ribcage together as much as possible. if it hurts a little youre doing it right.

side crunches (x8)

keep breathing the same way, and when youve exhaled and pulled your ribs in slowly reach you arm to the opposite side and crunch. breathe in, breathe all the way out and repeat.

vacuum breathing (x8)

get on your hands and knees and do the opposite of the breathing you were doing earlier. when you breathe in, suck in all the air like a vaccuum and hold your ribs in. hold it for a good 3 seconds and exhale.

knee raises (x14)

hold the same position and raise your knees

plank walk to downward dog (x8)

hold a plank with your arms stretched out, and walk your hands back so that youre in a downward dog, and walk back down to a plank

plank (~30sec-1min)

all done <3 go drink some water !! hope this helps someone :)

I made a linocut print as a present for my mom’s birthday. Here’s the process of making it!

1. I found this lovely picture of Bass Harbor Head Light in Bass Harbor, Maine (the state I live in):

2. I drew it on my iPad using Procreate:

3. I flipped the image horizontally and printed it off at the size I wanted the final piece to be (9”x12” printed on 11”x14” paper):

4: I put carbon paper between the printed image and the linoleum and traced over the image using a tracing tool that came with my carbon paper (next time I’ll just use a ballpoint pen):

5. I went over the lines with a fine liner to make sure they’d stay put throughout the carving process as the graphite from the carbon paper smudged pretty easily:

6. The carving begins!:

7. The carving continues!:

8. I trimmed out all of the sky to save time and created a quick registration tool by putting marks on a larger piece of paper showing where I wanted to align my printing paper after inking the carving:

9. After several attempts, I got a print I was happy with. I ended up making changes based on the earlier prints, though, so they weren’t a complete waste of ink and paper!:

10. My dad (making a cameo in the frame’s glass reflection) framed and matted the print and it’s all ready to give to my mom tomorrow evening!:

[the-xenogender-survey]

Xenogender Usage Survey Results

At long last, the results of the Xeno survey have been published! Out of about 160 entries, about 120 were usable! Some of these results will be varying as certain questions were optional.

Results under the cut, because this is a long post and includes graphics. Enjoy!

Q1. Do you have a main/primary gender identity?

Q2. What is your main/primary gender identity (if yes)?

The top 5 most common 'main/primary' gender identities of respondents to this question were as follows: 5. Trans Man [4] 4. Genderfluid [4] 3. Agender [4] 2. Genderqueer [6] 1. Nonbinary [7]

See the full list of all 'main/primary' gender identities HERE.

Q3. What Xenogenders do you identify with/as?

As this was the BIG ONE, I encouraged folks to give their whole lists, no matter how long they may have been. The top 11 most common xenogender identities of respondents to this question were as follows:

11. Staticgender [x5] 10. Demongender [x5] 9. Chaosgender [x5] 8. Bungender [x5] 7. Xenogender (Standalone) [x6] 6. Glitchgender [x6] 5. Stargender [x7] 4. Pupgender [x7] 3. Autigender [x8] 2. Fictogender [x14] 1. Catgender [x19]

See the full list of all Xenogenders HERE. There are 1,346 genders on this list.

These results were particularly interesting to me, because despite the high amount of respondents, only 2 xenogenders went over 10 responses at all despite the massive overall number. Xenogenders are a very vast 'type' of gender with usually very personalized meanings.

Q4. Do you identify with any non-xenogender identities in addition to the xenogender identities you have?

Q5. What non-xenogender identities do you have (if yes)?

The top 11 most common non-xenogender identities of respondents to this question were as follows:

11. Gendervoid [6] 10. Demigirl [6] 9. Male [7] 8. Boyflux [7] 7. Bigender [7] 6. Transgender [11] 5. Genderqueer [13] 4. Genderfluid [15] 3. Agender [21] 2. Transmasc [25] 1. Nonbinary [33]

See the full list of non-xenogenders HERE. I did include neogenders and "cusp" genders in these results. Maybe I'll do a survey on neogenders in the future...

Q6. When talking about your gender(s) ONLINE, do you put more emphasis on your xenogender or non-xenogender identities?

Q7. When talking about your gender(s) OFFLINE/IRL, do you put more emphasis on your xenogender or non-xenogender identities?

Q8. When thinking about your gender(s) PRIVATELY/PERSONALLY, do you put more emphasis on your xenogender or non-xenogender identities?

The extreme variance in these charts is really interesting as well. I want to make this survey an annual thing, I'm curious to know if this will change at all over the years.

Q9. Do you use neopronouns? For the purposes of this survey, 'neopronouns' was defined as any pronoun that was not he/him, she/her, they/them, or a combo of them such as she/they.

Q10. What type of neopronouns do you use (if yes)?

Q11. Do you prefer if people refer to you with your neopronouns or your non-neopronoun pronouns?

Q12. Do you have any additional comments about your xenogenders or neopronouns?

These will be held to the end of the survey as it is the longest section. Q13. Are you Neurodivergent?

Q13. Do you feel as if your neurodivergence has an impact on your xenogender(s)?

Q14. What types of neurodivergency do you have?

The top 5 most common neurodivergencies of respondents to this question were as follows:

5. C-PTSD [39] 4. ADHD [58] 3. Depression [63] 2. Anxiety [66] 1. Autism [93]

See the full list of neurodivergencies HERE.

I do think these results support my hypothesis that there is a strong intersection of neurodivergency, as well as specifically with autism.

That is the end of the results section! Below are participant comments. I removed comments that clarified on their personal identities or comments directed specifically to me. I found a lot of these very insightful, so even though this section is long, I do recommend reading through them. Thank you to everyone who participated!

COMMENTS ABOUT XENOGENDERS:

>> I believe that there is a huge problem in Xenos where the coiners end up deleting their blogs or presence online so it makes it impossible almost to trace back the gender, as well as there not being a well documented enough place for people to access info on Xenos. The best I found that is specifically only for Xenos is a Wikidot but it doesn't have a lot in terms of some genders imo. There's a weird sort of sense where genders and pronouns become their own lost media, and it's sad. I wish we had a way to properly catalog them as best we could but it's nigh impossible as MOGAI and Xenos were intended to be made where anything could be a Xeno (which is good!) but in the wake, double-coining happens and we lose the ones we did coin in the end. Sorry to ramble oops

>>I think the fact that im otherkin influences my gender identity in major wayss

>>I love my xenos and my genders and i think id like to talk more about it irl.

>>i identify as [gender, removed for privacy] privately and do not share it anywhere outside of my close group of friends. i also only identify with it with my own definition, as every one i've seen online includes concepts (aligning with masculinity/femininity, including european concepts such as royalty, etc) that i either feel uncomfortable with or feel defeat the entire purpose of a xenogender to begin with.

>>We identify the body as sushigender for this reason: Sushi comes in many different styles and fillings, but it's still sushi. Therefore, we can present however we want and it's still us. (It's basically putting a xenogender to describe unlabeled/not caring too much about labels)

>>i wish people (both queer & not) were more accepting that gender expression can be silly and you can have fun with it! sometimes labels are goofy. sometimes pronouns are silly. it doesn't make them any less valid. end the sillyphobia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>i barely attach my xenogenders to my actual gender and its mostly a representation of my entire identity , or some sort of fashion statement or something

>>Most of my xenogenders are private- I do not talk about them other than fairy and livia gender. This is because they are for me and not others, and most people do not need to know about them! :> however, though I will not admit this everywhere, my non-xenogender labels mostly only exist for other people. I am fairygender before I am trans, before I am bigender. I am liviagender before I am trans.

>>Sometimes I like to label, sometimes not, the xenogenders and other genders I identify with are all loose and fluid categories for me.

>>i only use xenogenders and neopronouns with other queer people.

>>i love love love the community this is so cool and i think everyone being able to express themselves is the most important thing in the world

>>I am satisfied with identifying with 'xenogender' as an umbrella term, rather than trying to find and list specific xenogenders I identify with. At least for now. Going to the effort of finding specific xenogenders has not been worth it to me so far.

>>Neurodivergence doesn't intersect with this as much as my alterhumanity does! I am a fairy and a pigeon. Neither has a concept of gender the way humans do. In an ideal world I would not have to fit myself into that system at all! Neurodivergence intersects because it intersects with everything. I am my brain. What it is is what I am. I can't run away from that.

COMMENTS ABOUT NEOPRONOUNS:

>>Most people don't use the neopronouns so it feels wrong to say I prefer them, sense they're never used

>>Honestly I only use my neos with close friends I'm sometimes public abt it but I'm too afraid of backlash sometimes

>>i sort of prefer folks to use my neopronouns purely as a result of most people NOT using them. if people actually used them equally, i would not feel that need to even things out.

>>We do notice people only using the first pronouns you list and ignoring the others (using exclusively she/her when the pronouns are she/they/xe/gem)

>>No one uses them and it makes me really dysphoria but I feel I can't enforce it because there so weird

COMMENTS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION OF NEURODIVERGENCY AND XENOGENDERS:

>>I do genuinely believe a lot of the xenogenders I have are related very specifically to my autism and how I perceive things around me, especially the sound / music related ones.

>>A lot of my overlap comes from perceiving the world around me differently, including my genders and the fluidity of my identity. I feel closer to sounds, concepts, objects, feelings, etc., than I do "typical" and "traditional" gender identities. I understand things more closely and easily in abstracts and metaphors when it comes to my own feelings, so things like "boy" and "girl" don't make much sense to me as a personal experience.

>>Autism affects that indirectly by being a major reason for my alterhumanity

>>My autism effects how I identify myself more than anything most of my xenogenders have to do with my special interests or stuff I feel like due to my autism

>>i have more genders than "usual" because of my multiplicity

>>The intersection most prominently comes from the autism. Being autistic has heavily impacted how I view my role in society and is influenced by a lot of that + my interests

>>autism is the Big one, because it makes me see and literally feel my gender differently to an allistic person. and OSDD-1b affects it only because it's a weird experience being transfem in an afab body, so my gender experience is quite different to singlets who are transfem

>>i think i likely would still experience xenogenders if i was neurotypical, but the fact that i am neurodivergent makes me experience them much more intensely

>>My dissociative disorder (OSDD) and autism majorly effect the way I view gender. It's almost entirely unimportant to me and I see it as more of a form of expression than anything and don't understand why so much stock is put into gender.

>>considering how alienated and disconnected i am from my identity and everyone else, i feel that using xenogenders that feel unclear or 'strange' gives me a sense of identity. i enjoy coming off as strange or offputting to others and like using queerness and nonconformity to express that.

>>my nonhumanity and my aroaceness are a lot more relevant to my gender than my neurodivergencies are.

>>I am not sure if my neurodivergence affects my xenogenders or not, but I know that it affects my overall gender identity, and that is why I label myself as interestfluid.

>>my concept of gender is just weird

>>It’s definitely interesting how a neurodivergency can allow someone to view gender in so many different ways. As an Autistic person, I genuinely do not understand the binary and construct that society has laid out. This in turn affects how I try to conceptualize something that I honestly don’t think *can* be conceptualized. It’s so unique to each person

>>Our autism causes us to see gender from a different perspective so to say. And being a system, other alters also have other perspectives and preferences and identities

Solo Artist Resident: Peggy L. Burchard Ballard

Kolaj Institute's Artist-in-Residence Peggy L. Burchard Ballard writes, “Vintage maps became part of my work several years ago, initially they were background fillers but over time they became intentional by color, pattern, or topic. I continue to develop the use of maps in my work and find ways of integrating them fully into the collages.” With a focus on the history of the New Orleans area, Burchard expects to complete three to five 10″x14″ or larger collages. These collages will be based on maps of the area and evolve from material obtained during the Residency. Read More

Kolaj Magazine, a full color, print magazine, exists to show how the world of collage is rich, layered, and thick with complexity. By remixing history and culture, collage artists forge new thinking. To understand collage is to reshape one's thinking of art history and redefine the canon of visual culture that informs the present.
