good website for finding books to read! i usually search and build my bookshelf by author instead of genre or plot and i love a map so this lovely - my search for banana yoshimoto (i loved kitchen and tsugumi)

I drew the guy for my business tiktok (post flopped spectacularly yay) but I figured you guys can see it too

Lavender Thread

time for another @strangerthingsreversebigbang art collaboration! this one started as a wip for a @steddiebingo round one prompt 'eleven' but then i got stuck cos i couldn't think of any tattoos for eleven/jane. i imagined her as heavily tattooed, reclaiming her body and also realising that actually shaved head is really cool now it's her choice and not something forced on her. thankfully @mugloversonly shared my vision (that could have been awkward lol) and we brainstormed some tattoos - joan of arc in front of two water falls and a rainbow (i'm afraid three water falls would have been too much, or maybe the third one is just out of frame, perhaps behind the viewer!) and a lavender sprig (for reasons you will find out in the fic) the colour scheme also changed from my usual all pink to green and purple, like the lavender.

Sooooooooooooooo I ended up making a small comic to accompany the illustration I made instead of a sketch…
