The lights we chased
The nights we steal
The things we take; to make us feel

i don't usually do fanart but Lil Nas X and Orville Peck are a couple of heroes of mine and when i got it into my head to do this, i knew it needed to be done by the end of Pride. Haven't gotten to the colors yet but will someday.
Anyway, enjoy some open range love, folks!

Oakland Cemetery Black Angel
The Black Angel in Oakland Cemetery in Iowa City is the subject of plenty of chilling lore. It is said that the statue mysteriously changed color from bronze to black and that the sudden color change was an evil warning to keep people away from the grave. Many other myths followed, like a girl who is kissed at the angel鈥檚 feet in the moonlight would die in six months. Another myth states that touching the angel on Halloween night would cause that person to die within the next seven years. Kissing the angel itself is said to make your heart stop beating.

What a Weekend!
This past weekend I was invited to Pella, Iowa from the team at Visit Pella.
聽Pella, IA is East, and just a touch South, of Des Moines, IA.聽It's home to the largest working grain windmill in the country, which you can tour!
聽Dutch culture is very strong as many of the early residents of Pella were from The Netherlands. While I was sharing my walk-through town on Instagram stories (now on my highlight reel) I received so many messages from my friends in Europe thinking I was there, too! They said the large trucks gave it away that I was still in America. ;)
聽What surprised me the most on my trip to Pella was how much of a foodie destination this can be! We had excellent meals and pastries originating from Europe as well as some American classics. There was not a bad meal here to be found! (And we ate enough to be able to tell if there was...)聽
聽The desserts over at Vander Ploeg Bakery were scrumptious. Don't forget to get a Dutch Letter when you visit! It's a puff pastry with an almond paste.聽
聽We had coffee over at Iris Coffee - a scientific take on coffee! Pairing what would taste best to get you the most amazing cup of coffee.聽
Big Acai Bowl had loads of smoothies and yogurt options for a midday snack or paring to breakfast!聽
Van Veen Chocolates had these spectacular cookie butter dark chocolates. Had to tell ourselves not to eat them all in one sitting!!!
We had some amazing beef jerky and beef sticks at In鈥檛 Veld鈥檚 Meat Market. It was some of the best we've ever tasted!聽
Liberty Street Kitchen was inside our hotel, The Royal Amsterdam Hotel . We had steak and fish and they were absolutely delicious. What really knocked our socks off was the cr猫me br没l茅e! (Which we ate too quickly to get a picture of.)聽
We also had some of the Pella Red wine from The Wijn House . It was a perfect way to relax while at the Royal Amsterdam Hotel after walking around town all day.
聽I won't lie to you, by lunchtime on our first day in Pella my husband was already discussing when we could come back with friends and family.聽
聽We didn't even get a chance to enjoy all the outdoor activities near Lake Red Rock. Although I am fairly certain I will go there to enjoy the next astronomical event!聽
聽I really could go on and on AND ON about how much my husband and I enjoyed Pella, Iowa. Whether you're visiting Iowa, traveling across the US on I-80, wanting to go to Europe without a passport, or just looking for an amazing place to visit, Pella needs to be on your vacation dream list.聽聽
See more of my Pella trip on the @bad_science_jokes Instagram with a full walkthrough or my little synopsis video.

DIRTY SECRETS No. 1 Recontextualized public domain image Procreate聽on iPad Air True Grit Texture Supply聽brushes and textures 2024
(Featuring: Pitstop Polly, Beau Beetle, She-tah, Smart Alec, Rex Rothur, The Magenta Mynx, a couple of GranGoons, Cat-Linda, and Jack Curr)
This one took that extra bit of oomph to make it pop, but i had fun with the halftones and dry brush effects and mixing them together. My goal is to do 6 cover for DIRTY SECRETS and then, eventually, start work on narrative comics in this style.
I'm teaching a class about how to make a cover like this, taking a public domain image and making it your own! Send me a message if you're interested!
