A half-assed whiteboard imitation of Frederick Sandys’ Perdita (1866), done in a few minutes in Expo marker on 2/14/2023
#my drawing#visual art#2023#pre-raphaelite#frederick sandys#shakespeare#the winter's tale#perdita#artists on tumblr#shakespearean heroines#i did this on the same board i've done my other whiteboard drawings that i've posted#idk if i've mentioned this. but it's in the math tutoring center where my sister works lol#i haven't been there in two months. i don't take any math classes anymore so i'm really just chillin in there. sometimes i socialize#sometimes i do my own studying. that's how i started these expo marker drawings. is that i was looking at paintings for inspiration for my#figure drawing final. and id do a sketch in my sketchbook and then copy it from my sketchbook onto the board. and id leave em there#obviously nothing about that is against the rules even if that's not what that room is *for* ... im allowed to just kick back#i always wondered what the other ppl who work in there thought of my whiteboard drawings. bc id leave em up. and sometimes they wouldnt be#erased for like a week or two. hell. the last one i posted (the love potion by evelyn de morgan) was my least impressive imo#but it was only erased like a week ago. it stayed up for like 2 months. kaily told one of her coworkers he could erase it and he was like#'its been there since last year... and out of respect for that i will not be the one to do it.'#lol like they're nice but they're not sacred#but anyway i went at a different time of day and stayed in there for several hours just reading and drawing while other ppl did math#i met three other ppl who worked there that i'd never met before. and they were all like 'oh are you kailys sister who does the drawings?'#i guess some of them really like them lol. it touched my heart#one guy in his 40s also saw i was reading a book on john donne & was pretty interested in that combined w my choice of the winter's tale#i guess he's a bit of an early-modern english lit buff himself. he's a christian. he said he liked george herbert.#he said smth to another student like 'yeah you can do math in here. or you can. draw on the board. or read books about#sixteenth century poets and theologians. whatever you want'#i didnt know anyone there would actually be impressed w anything i do. since it is not stem-related at all.#i guess i bring that old school humanities swag to the math center hahahaha
