I was gonna mope about having too much work over break and once again being unable to produce a big awesome work. but then I realized moping hours could actually be free sketching hours. kinda cool.

happy holidays! I hope you find a way to enjoy whatever holiday event you may or may not be attending :> and if i dont see y'all later, have an awesome new year!!

merry fitzier! 🌷🎄 (acrylic gouache on paper)

this is my terrormas gift for @peonychikh for the holiday exchange on the terror (2018) emotional support server! they asked for a happy fitzier piece with neptune :)

I wanted to paint them as if posing for a portrait, where propriety would have them present as ~very good friends~ lol. but there are enough hints as to the true nature of their relationship that a keen eye won't miss: crozier's hand draped over the chair, posed as if he had his arm around fitzjames's shoulders; shared colors in their outfits, especially the eye-catching blue; their heads are angled ever so slightly towards each other; matching rings (!!!!) and a matching set of tea cups that evoke their rings. those are fitzier tea cups.....

since this is a happy fix-it au I wanted to show how their loved ones figured into their lives too. there are watercolor portraits of blanky and jopson (done by fitzjames? who knows), a photograph of william coningham on the mantle, and goodsir's inuit dictionary, finally published, on fitzjames's lap.

a small painting of a house (their house? who knows!!!!) is placed higher than a painting of a stormy ship, because in this au they've chosen each other & the home they've made over returning to the navy. (there's another painting below that, it's just meant to be a random bouquet of flowers, sorry I didn't overthink this far lol)

even if this is a happy ending au, there are still reminders of disaster they could've had in the expedition. fitzjames keeps a hand on a cane, possibly haven't ever fully recovered from the weaknesses scurvy inflicted on his body. crozier keeps his left hand behind his back--did he lose it, like in the original ending? who knows! and I tried to make it subtle as to not ruin the mood of the piece too much, but the larger painting in the corner is a still life of fruits and a skull. life and death, memento mori...

hope it's not too silly that I overexplained this painting. since this is a gift I thought it'd be nice to show all my notes. I really hope you like it, peonychikh, and merry fitziermas!!!!!

I knew a lot about the Franklin Expedition before I watched The Terror and I knew some things about the characters in the show but what I wasn’t expecting was for everyone on both those damn ships to be so desperate for Francis Crozier’s grumpy whiskey dick. Long list of guys who were like “I NEED my angry grouchy depressed alcoholic captain to fuck me that’s what would fix me”

long winter nights and growing desires.

sometimes i think about “this place wants us dead” and how it’s such an obvious example of foreshadowing, but it still ends up subverted in some way. like really think about it. the place doesn’t kill them, not really. they bring the diseases and the sickness with them. the lead is already in the cans before they leave. the food was already rotten. even tuunbaq is a man-made creature, not a bear like they originally think. it’s just. it’s not the place not really. the tragedy is that they were already doomed. they were doomed before stepping on their ships and they were doomed before they even reached the arctic and they were doomed before they even got stuck in the ice. she’s been dead since the beginning etc etc. i also think it’s so interesting that it’s also the remnants of colonialism that kills them. obviously james’ bullet wound is the obvious one but also the act of hubris in of itself. the fact that they think that they can last with their supplies. maybe the land does want them dead. maybe they were already dead. idk
