Dragons & Rainbows

Goodwill in RVA

I have the purple one, too. She was supposed to be blue but according to a woman dressed like Barbie at FAO Schwarz in Chicago circa 2002, there was a dye lot issue with the fabric. I was so excited because I thought she was much prettier in purple. The name she originally came with was Theseus and I changed that immediately to Thessaly because there are no dragons in the Theseus myth.

The purple ones are extremely rare. They were only sold out of the Chicago store, if Barbie was telling me accurate info. The catalog entry- gosh I can remember it like it was yesterday- had both the blue and purple variants in one printing but i don't know if any of the purple ones were shipped, because I wanted the purple one, my parents ordered it, they sent blue, they knew I didn't want blue, parents called company, company said they only had those in Chicago, so we went to Chicago (we were going anyways for my birthday) and that's where I picked her up.

Hello! Worry not! I am very much alive! Here’s a panel of a comic in the works as proof ^

I apologize that I’ve made people worried with my absence. Truth is that I’ve been doing literally anything and everything not-art-related! It gave me time to reflect on what part I want art to play in my life, and I’ve realized it gives me the most joy as a hobby, not as a job with dreadful self-imposed deadlines and constant agonizing of what the next great comic idea needs to be. And I’m sure many artists feel that way. I’m thankful that I have the choice to pursue other aspirations, and I’ve taken that opportunity! Moving to a new country this year and fingers crossed I enroll in uni again!
