11 is done! I said I'd finish by the 3rd, but that's unlikely at this point. (I really struggled with the lighting on this one, took me longer than expected.) BUT, I prevailed! I was gonna just do 12, but... I need to do 15 as well. Cuz I do. (I already have one of 13 I did a few years back, I'll post it when it's her turn!) On to painting 12. May get him done by Monday. Slightly busy weekened ahead, but there will be SOME painting done. 9th Doctor 10th Doctor 12th Doctor 13th Doctor 15th Doctor

This is the before and after when I edited it throughout procreate.

Part 9 of sharing my Whovian coffee paintings - and the last one, for the time being - is of course none other than the 13th Doctor 🥳

Painted with instant coffee on smooth, heavyweight paper.

At the time, there were very few reference pictures available, which is why her portrait differs a bit from the other Doctors 😝

I will keep sharing my nerdy coffee paintings from other fandoms for now, and hopefully have some more Whovian ones in the future - there's already two more new Doctors to depict after all 😂 Feel free to drop suggestions for any other characters or creatures you'd like to see 👀

And also, thank you for all the lovely responses on all my previous posts, it means the world to me 😘

Being a Whovian is sincerely so much fun.

This show is so many different things to so many people but what I think truly makes it special is not just the change it forces on us as an audience but the way it pushes us subconsciously to give up on purism.

"Your Doctor" was <insert amiable character traits> but the current one doesn't represent that same persona? Pity. Almost like we can be different people all throughout our lives...

You ever hear someone say like..."it's fine it's just not for me"?

I wonder how many people who say that about the newest Doccy Who seasons genuinely think in their heart of hearts "actually this is garbage and you should agree with me that it is garbage" because those two are not the same thing at all! 🤭 Ugh, I can't help my incredulity sometimes. Maybe the internet adds to the expectation of toxicity. ...or I just spent a lot of time growing up around cynical assholes that hated fun. *shrug*

More to the point! 😅

Pick an era of this show; pick a doctor and you'll be transported to a world more or less unique to them. That's pretty cool if you ask me. They still have that silly multidimensional blue box; they still have two hearts (even if it didn't become canon until their 3rd incarnation)...and yes they still pick up stray humans (...usually young, petite British women from whatever decade said Doctor conveniently and sequentially visits).

But maybe to really hit home on what I mean about this show tackling purism in its audience's mind...it's always been a silly sci-fi show meant to elicit joy and wonder out of children. Additionally so, to help adults retain that same joy and wonder in their own lives by reflecting on the excitement that comes from infinite possibilities only possible when traveling with a genderfluid space alien that wears extraordinary clothes and hands out candy like it's already gone out of style. Oh and you become the universe's only hope the moment you step into another time or location lol.

Sometimes when we love something, we take it very seriously no matter how absurd it truly is at its core. We may not even notice we're doing it but any criticism of Doctor Who really ought to be taken with a grain of salt (and spread out at the very edge of creation...just for good measure). No need to get all salty over a television show. 🧂

So yeah. Being a Whovian, for me, is having the freedom to dive head first into an ocean of lore whenever I desire and really explore storytelling from several perspectives. Albeit many of the early years were written and directed and produced from the perspectives of white, straight men in the U.K. and stories with misogynist stances that heavily limited the functional roles of women in the context of said stories and were also affirmed by narratives and protagonists that failed to question any of it. *clearing throat* Oof, there was a frog back there!

All the same, our heroes of yesterday battled styrofoam monsters breaking through plywood walls built on cardboard sets represented by painted miniatures dangling on strings over a starlit portrait meant to look like space. Even when they couldn't help but be a bit cringe, they were still a silly lil sci-fi show playing at games of the imagination. Like children at play.

Now, we have this beautiful and talented man standing at center stage:

He is all the play; all the heart(s); all the joy we have known in this character but decorated in his own unique way.

My love for this show has evolved and I intend to allow it to continue doing just that. Hopefully we can continue to see the Whoniverse do just the same...instead of getting too caught up in the past. 🫣

Anywho, that's all for now.

Kisses 😘

DAVID TENNANT IS BACK AS THE TENTH DOCTOR!!

What a perfect evening to post this portrait study I’ve been working on for the past week. It’s a redraw of these older pieces for which I used the same reference.

"Where There's Tears, There's Hope"

Loved doing this oil painting of Bill, so happy with all the little details from the freckles to the tear. I love Bill so so much- she loves women, little mix and sci-fi, so she's basically me!
