You may remember me sharing in July 2022 how delighted I was that my painting of Castlerigg Stone Circle (near Keswick in the Lake District) had been featured in the Society of All Artists (SupportingAllArtists) quarterly magazine "Paint & Create" and how mine was first in the list of members' artworks!

I thanked Michelle Ewen and Christian Ewen of Write on Time Ltd and Kat Jane Massey of Www.instagram.com/visibilityqueenkat and Sue France of Sue France,Creative Connecting in Cheshire for their support of my work to increase my visibility as an artist.

Yesterday, that story continued for me…

I went to an art studio time of an art society I joined last autumn. We paint together for three hours most weeks – well, I paint in the lobby, as I’ve been told by my blood cancer consultant to still be very careful re Covid. But each week, at about half time, I don a mask and gloves and go round the main room to see what the other artists are creating and have a bit of a chat…. social like.

Anyway, when I got to a lovely society member who paints for pleasure rather than sales, I couldn’t resist asking: “Do you know who painted that picture you’re using as a reference…?” She hadn’t realised it was me.

I was ok about it. I know many artists wouldn’t have been. But it wasn’t being painted for profit and I think it’s important for artists to be as supportive of each other as we can be. And having your art used as an artist’s reference is a pretty sincere compliment.

In the same spirit, I was allowed to take a photo of my colleague's painting (still to be completed. I think it’s lovely.

Thanks again!

Rogues Gallery AU Ratchet and Drift details vvv

Drift, formerly going by the name Deadlock, has long since retired her career as the hired assassin Cheshire after ending up at Ratchet's free clinic 10 years ago. The two now live together and have since gotten married at some point, with Drift sometimes helping Ratchet out in the clinic. Otherwise, she trains her athletic skills relentlessly and repaints/maintains her old gear in case anyone decides to cause trouble for either of them. You never know what might happen in Gotham City...

Ratchet runs a free clinic in Gotham, treating anyone or any bat looking for help. Her history with Prowl is long, and she doesn't necessarily approve of Prowl's decision to don the cowl, but she'll still help out regardless. Ratchet's currently been looking to retire alongside Drift some time soon, but has tremendous difficulty staying away from her clinic.

Both can break every bone in ur body if they really wanted to

I love the QSMP. Not only has it introduced me to many amazing international creators, it's also introduced me to the French and Brazilian community, who are so sweet, funny, and chaotic in their own unique ways. I love seeing fans sharing their culture and learning from one another, and I myself have learned a lot this past year. I think it's incredible how QSMP brings so many different people together – all of us united in our love and passion for this project and its goals.

But passion can often evoke strong emotions, and these strong emotions aren't always positive.

The past few months, I have seen multiple waves of hate, bad-faith generalizations of communities, and racist remarks directed at fellow fans – especially those who are part of the French / Brazilian community. This kind of behavior is inexcusable, and is in direct conflict with the mission of QSMP, which is to break language barriers and unite communities.

We are a global community with a variety of people from different backgrounds. Miscommunications may occasionally occur because of cultural differences and/or language barriers, but we should use these moments as opportunities to learn and engage with other people rather than assuming the worst about them and starting fights.

Although certain issues can be resolved with communication, sometimes it’s better to block and move on. Avoid spreading negativity or hate, and save yourself the headache of interacting with people who are just looking for someone to argue with.

No matter what community we're a part of or what languages we speak, we're all here to have fun. Please remember to be kind to each other. We have more in common than we have in conflict.

Tim’s fans are so funny, they be like “X character would absolutely LOVE and deeply care for Tim <3” meanwhile X characters has beat the shit out of and tried to kill Tim on multiple occasions in canon and they would probably do it again in exchange for one corn chip.

DC x DP Idea Thing #3

Voluntary Admissions AU

What if Danny voluntarily Admitted himself to Arkham Asylum as a patient?

"Patient #10304-M, also known as, for his safety and security, Janus D. Astrophel. Voluntarily Admitted himself to Arkham Asylum on [date is scratched off with a thick, green ink], having arrived in a rather critical and vulnerable position, both physical and mental."

Rumors often spread quickly in Arkham. After all, not much better things to do when you're locked up and deemed either crazy, dangerous or even both in the eyes of Gotham. So it wasn't a surprise when news spread like wildfire amongst inmates and patients inside those dreadful halls.

A new addition had joined the ranks of the madhouse. Voluntarily at that. Likely the youngest patient to roam these halls for a non-Gothamite at least. After all, no native Gothamite would willingly put themselves in such hell.

The newbie went by Janus Astrophel. Kid seemed anything but normal. Seemed like he'd fit in well with Gotham's brand of sickness after a bit. Then again, kid looks as fragile as a twig. Almost as skinny as Crane, creepy as him too. Gives off Freeze vibes though, oddly enough, with hints of Dent.

[Those types of comments were quickly picked up by the aforementioned rogues. Rather than start a scene, they took interest immediately after hearing more words of the newcomer.]

Astrophel's a meta, just from the collar he adorns on his neck. Seemed modified as well. Didn't look like the standard ones the super-powered rogues commonly wore. Nobody knew what power he had. Seemed like it helped him more than anything though.

[Some inmates recalled when Astrophel first arrived. Didn't have a collar the first day. Kid could barely stand and was bleeding profusely. Next day, kid looked better, wearing the collar everyone associates with him now. Some think it's like Freeze's suit in a way. No one said a word bout it after receiving a cold glare]

Thing was, it ain't just the collar or how sickly he seemed that caught people's eyes.

Scars. Kid's littered with them. Some managed to glimpse a multitude of what looks like surgery scars [vivisected was often echoed, especially from Quinn and Nygma], and others looked like he was zapped by lightning [Litchenberg Scars around the chest specifically]. Kid even wore some stitches where his joints were [Frankenstein was an insult for a brief moment before Dent flipped a coin and shit them up]. Some would've mistaken him for some sort of zombie, like Grundy, had it not been for the fact people had seen him breathe and bleed... Albeit, it was a toxic green rather than crimson red.

Rather discerning as it held a resemblance to certain Demon Head's waters...

Kid didn't talk much. He was polite and friendly, sure. Some of the rogues took a shine to him. He seemed scared, though, not that anybody blamed him. Arkham was filled with rogues who earned their titles and infamy for a reason. But he wasn't scared of others... No. Crane said the kid held a certain look of fear...

Astrophel was afraid of himself... Everyone can't help but wonder why.

[They later see a glimpse as to why after he saw Joker for the first time. Least to say, Quinn called dibs even though others would like to say otherwise]

incidents I’ve had with Riverdale cast members:

attending the Nathan For You live show, sitting ready in my seat, only to see Camila Mendes and Gay Kevin heading my way. Camila politely said “excuse me” so I could let her pass to get to her seat and I pretended not to be starstruck

shopping for art supplies at an Opus store when I was suddenly overcome with a sick, heavy sensation of pure dread throughout my entire body. turned to my left and saw Cole Sprouse browsing the acrylic paints

New kofi post for members! this one's relative small though, few hylia-related doodles, landscape practice, and a piece of Demise's relationship with Hylia and the world around him.

This page was done super on the spot after I got to thinking about the deities a little more again. + a silly concept I might delve into more later.

Can not stress enough the value of having physical copies of photos in your home. First thing we did at our apartment was put up a gallary wall and we've been adding a few more pictures over time and it's so nice. Really lovely reminder of the people we love and who love us.

"chel how many times have you restarted miitopia on switch" listen,

[iamapoopmuffin]

Every now and then I remember a graphic novel I read in a library in my teens and think 'I want to reread that one' but I don't remember for the life of me which specific one it was, nor do I have access to that library any more, so I'm just sat there yearning for comic books.

Rare is the moment that people hurt by past experiences come together to find healing. Though that journey has not yet been seen to completion, with hurt that yet lingers at the edges of shadowy rooms, Bonding is one step of many towards one another and the child that calls Hiroto ( @oathofpromises ) and A'atahni her fathers.
