Art Tag 🖼🎨💕

I was tagged by these talented magnificent artist thanksss 💕

Molly @deathclassic Julissa @heymrspatel Deanna @deedala Ice @spookygingerr Ling @lingy910y

Have you always been interested in creating art? Yes, I was that kid in high school doodling anime girls throughout class lol

What's your favourite medium to use? I really like digital for the infinite undo button with my perfectionist ass lmao & I'm using Clip Studio. Paper art has been quite therapeutic for me too

Do you create outside of fandom? Yes

Share something you haven't finished and/or never got around to posting

I made a tribute to our Gallacrafts zine, but at the time, the mods had changed, so I was gonna create a companion piece. I didn't get around to it & then the mods had changed again 😅

Some OG crafting overlords Rhys @smokey-mickey Leah @whatwouldmickeydo Donna @sleepyfacetoughguy

I also have gallacrafts I haven't completed for really old themes, but I do still wanna post lol

Favourite piece you've made? Toss up between my gallacrafts Pride 2 piece (see piece that has most notes question) or my 2024 gallavich valentines/my icon

Draw your icon in a minute or less

You get the gist lmao

An underrated piece you've made in your opinion

A little bit to thus This collection of missing posters with the mixed media.

Do you do art in a professional setting? No, but I wanted to. I studied Visual Arts with a major in screen arts in university tho. Uni wasn't what I wanted my plan was to do animation, but, plans fell through

A piece you don't like but did really well on social media

This. The portions are wack basic background, Ian's face feels off & I rushed this

Post an old piece and compare it to your most recent, what are the similarites?

Wow pretty good that I get to compare these two lol. Still got the star motif & the way I'm drawing bodies is has improved yay! Look at that looooong squiggly pointing arm

Have you ever collaborated with another artist/s? Yes, with the lovely & super talented Ling @lingy910y I couldn't have as for a better first time collab partner 🫶🏼 Would love to collab more 🥰

What piece has the most notes? Are you surprised?

This one has the most notes for hand drawn art & the other is my most notes for art/crafts in general. I'm pretty proud these are top dogs & pleasantly surprised with the Deleted scenes one 😄

Who/What is your favourite subject matter? Our boys but also when I'm acrylic painting I'm loving painting clouds & sunset/sunrise skies hues

Show us something not from fandom you've made

I've been experimenting with acrylic paints after getting inspired by a sparkling water painting I saw on tumblr & here are some cute cows I drew for Leah

Where do you like to create? There's a table in the lounge room that's very spacious, has good light & a cart with a stash of my art supplies. But I wanna migrate back to my room bc I got a new big desk there to keep my mess away lol

Do you have a tag that you use to group your creations? Tell us so people can follow it. It's under Myn's art

Give yourself a shoutout, where can we commission/buy/follow you for more pieces? I don't sell my art or do commissions, but I kinda have some drawings I do love & toy with the idea of making postcards or have it on a mug

I'll tag sensational & inspiring artist if they wanna play 💖

Hi Evie! How about 4, 17, and 27 for the Year in Review asks?

Thank you for indulging me, dearest Kat 🤗🥰

4. How many fandoms did you write for this year?

Let's see... Red, White, and Royal Blue, Gallavich, The Gentlemen (the TV series) and I posted a story for The Old Guard, though it was written three years ago, so that one doesn't really count, does it? 😛

17. Share your favorite opening line.

Oh boy... gimme a moment to scroll through AO3 😅 Okay, this one, from Top of the list:

There's something extremely… gratifying – Ian would swoon at the word, the fucking nerd – about living with your boyfriend.

The rest of them - and I kid you not - are extremely short and more or less deliberately misleading. And it's not that I take issue with how I open stories per se, it's just that, in vacuum, they're not that interesting. The one I picked, though, has that little appositive sentence and the endearment in the form of a profanity + insult and I think it's just neat.

27. How many events did you take part in? (bangs, exchanges, ship weeks, zines, prompt memes, they all count!)

Gallavich Week, of course ❤️

Gallavich Gift Exchange

Gallavich Masquerade

And then, hosted by @ficwip:

Hey, Sweetheart

Level Up!

Dark & Cozy

And two prompt fills for The Prompt Pool

Basically, this confirms what I already knew, which is that I function a lot better with deadlines 😅

2024 Year in Review - full set here ❤️

The Gallavich Angst Playlist!

For the @odietamo-gallavichzine​ and our beautiful fandom :)

The Top 10

Songs selected to track with canon.

I Love You (Acoustic), Woodkid - early seasons Ian, pining for open commitment from Mickey

Love, or the lack thereof; Isaac Dunbar - same S1-3 Ian

Cupid, Ryan Beatty - both of these gorgeous dummies, wishing for each other, before it all goes to hell in the S3 finale

Loud Places, Jamie xx & Romy - early S4, imagining our boys in the clubs of Boystown, from Mickey’s POV

Bulletproof, La Roux - Ian, mid-S4, trying to keep his emotional distance from Mickey even as they’re together

Sulk, TR/ST - Mickey, mid-S4, hating the club life, sticking around anyway

A Case of You, Joni Mitchell - This song has been covered hundreds of times; I’m in love with this version, Mitchell’s orchestral cover from 2000. It’s gorgeous and heartbreaking, and perfect for Gallavich. As Mickey might reflect on Debbie coming to him in S5 after Ian is diagnosed, Mitchell sings “I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours, she knew your life, she knew your devils and your deeds, and she said, "‘Go to him, stay with him if you can, but be prepared to bleed’"**

Basic Instinct, The Acid - breaking my Fluff Playlist Top 10 rule of no songs from the show. I can barely finish this song without getting emotional, and I’ve seen countless Tumblrs devoted to its lyrics, the S5 ballfield scene and their kiss.

All I Want, Kodaline - Mickey, following Ian breaking it off in the S5 finale

Discoloration, Dawn Golden - Both their POVs, staring at each other in psych wards and prison visitation rooms

Bonus #11! Wildest Dreams, Taylor Swift - I originally planned to put this first, as I’m OBSESSED with this song as their Mexico border breakup. Sorry not sorry to any TS haters out there.

If you go to Spotify, there’s many more songs on the playlist! 

**Joni Mitchell’s music might not be on Spotify right now in solidarity with Neil Young and public health sanity.

Mickey and the Prairie-Fire Wildflowers 💮🔥🌵💔

Since @gallacrafts is taking a well deserved rest this month I thought it was the perfect opportunity to digitally share my art work from this past summers Gallacrafts Zine! This was such a wonderful process to be part of!

I imagined this piece taking place soon after 7x10 , which of course comes with lots of complicated feeling for Mickey.

As this is a paint by numbers I'd love to see your take on this, tag me so I can see you're beautiful coloring. Also tag #gallacrafts and #getting gallacrafty

(color pallet and more under the cut!)

Or use your own colors !

Version without the numbers

Incase you wanted to see some of my creative process.

[arrowflier]

Joining the @gallacrafts​ crew in posting my zine entry!  Fair warning to any potential knitters: I have small hands and made these to fit me, so I recommend increasing needle size or adding stitches to the fingers for a good fit.  I also recommend being better at stranded colorwork than me😂

I’ve never tried to write a pattern off my freehanding before, so I hope it makes sense!  If not I’m happy to help anyone troubleshoot or point you to resources for construction and special stitches🥰

galladrabbles: magazine

since @smokey-mickey is the fearless co-leader of the @gallacrafts zine, what better way to interpret this week’s prompt than writing about a zine?! ty, as always, to the @galladrabbles community!🌱​✨​

_

he’d always drawn— scribbled on cardboard, doodled in the margins of books and walked down locker-lined halls with blue ink staining his hands.

he’d never thought much of it— not until ian saw him scratching on the back of a receipt with a dull pencil and his eyes went soft around the edges.

“you’re really good, mick.”

and now, there was this— it wasn’t much, some fucking zine project ian’s friend was doing to benefit a youth center. flimsy, photocopied pages held together by staples, a scratchy drawing on the cover.

he couldn’t stop running his fingertips over the paper.

[depressedstressedlemonzest]

I was organizing all my fandom things and wellll.... decided to get out and display all my gallavich things.

@doodlevich @psychicskulldamage and whatsamattavich on Instagram have helped create my little shrine😂

Not to mention @suzy-queued whose art I got inked into my skin

[heymrspatel]

you proposing to me over fuckin' patty melts?

@gallacrafts zine collab with @you-are-so-much-better-than-that 💙✨

[silvanshadow]

@gallacrafts The Zine is so amazing! Thank you to everyone who worked on it! There are just so many wonderfully talented folks in the Gallavich fandom!! ❤️

[vintagelacerosette]

Ohhh I forgot to post but I got this little beauty on Monday & my goodness it is breathtaking!!! So proud of everyone @gallacrafts & an big thank you to the incredible Rhys @smokey-mickey & Leah @whatwouldmickeydo 💗💗💗 Here's to many more years making crafts with y'all 🥰😘💕

Theme 14: We Make A Good Team

What’s the key to any good team? Communication! For this month’s theme I once again went the route of upcycle crafting. Using a couple of frames I painted years and years ago, and combining my wine cork collection, I made some cork boards. Which are a great way for any team/family to keep track of what’s going on or for special reminders. (Not to mention also a fabulous way to display my gallavich love.)

Thank you to everyone @gallacrafts & @shamelesscreatorsnetwork for coming up with such an awesome theme idea for this month! Each and every one of you inspire me! 💖

Shout out to @heymrspatel & @you-are-so-much-better-than-that for your awesome gallacraft zine stickers/art!!

The Gallavich Fluff Playlist!

For the @odietamo-gallavichzine and our beautiful fandom :)

I made this one first, as a true romantic, but I prefer the Angst playlist!

The Top 10

(many more songs on the full list on Spotify)

Control, Janet Jackson - I first thought of Mickey as I listened to this throwback, but now I see it fits both of them gaining control over their lives as they make their way towards their happily ever after.

Two of Us on the Run, Lucius - headed to Mexico, obviously (so many good choices for their S7 reunion, but this is my favorite) (Beyond Gallavich, I love Lucius, pair this with Right Down the Line for some beauty)

Pretty Great, Fickle Friends - as I wrote on my running playlist post, I find this perfect for the AU premise of Ian and Mickey meeting at a club, hazy, hot and f*cked up, and then that unforgettable chemistry carrying them through until they find each other for real. 

Like Real People Do, Hozier - need I explain? :) Really appreciate the intro to Hozier, personally.

Everywhere, Fleetwood Mac - the K E M A L cover is on the Spotify list, but I can’t resist the upbeat tempo of the original, and the ethereal voices of Christine McVie and the chorus. You can also hear why its bass line has been sampled a lot. This one has a lot more effervescent, whirling joy to it. 

Burning, Gorgon City - “For every pain there is pleasure.” With a club beat as tribute to the best Gallavich kiss, the club kiss 😘🔥����🥰

Love Song, Yungblud - This song is new to me from one of the submitted playlists on Tumblr to help with these zine lists (Thank you!). The lyrics fit beautifully. “You patch up the blood and the cuts, but our blood got mixed up, so I guess we belong to each other”  

Supernova, Liz Phair - Since everything 90s is cool again. When I listen to this, I hear Mickey’s tribute to Ian, “...and you fuck like a volcano and you’re everything to me.” 

Open, Rhye - And in response, this is Ian’s devotion to Mickey, loving on his thighs, soft belly over firm muscles, and of course, those tats.

Chasing Cars, Snow Patrol - The lyrics + the acoustic version, with bonus shoutout to Ian’s future tomatoes. Let’s all just lay here with them, shall we?
