#even here

What inspired you ?

Thank you so much 😭😭😭 Im honestly very surprised whenever someone says I have any form of a style in what I do, because, personally, I think I am a bit all over the place (which is normal since Im still trying a lot of things out for myself)

First of all, I'm very inspired by Brecht Evens, especially the way he works with color and is capable of showing different light environments through it.

My brain chemistry was also forever changed by the way over the Garden wall artists went about depiction of creepy cartoony stuff.

Also, I've been going though a process of re-evaluating soviet art for the last couple of years. I absolutely HATED it as I child but I had to revisit it for one of my Uni researches and there are actually a lot of fun examples of work with color and shapes there????

TEHEHEHE YEEEA how could i not put my fav norrström on my profile when theyre the only ones shining lately??

i really think the confession blogs have something to with it, it all seemed to start when the confession blogs became active again. because while confession blogs can be fun it also gives people a platform to spew hate without consequence. most of the Keefe vs Fitz stuff is on the confession blogs, and the posts are people replying to the confessions on the blogs.

We see all of the discomfort during Stede's flashbacks: the uncomfortable wedding, Mary and the kids sitting far away from Stede. The amazing shot of Stede and Mary standing far apart from each other with the model of the Revenge dividing them. These moments drill home the title but also the guilt that Stede feels.

On the other end, we see Ed's point of view particularly with Izzy. Izzy tries to reel Ed in, bringing his focus to one thing. But Ed tries to get Izzy to play with him and the plans he has for escape later. We already see that while Izzy and Ed are close, it isn't in the same way. And Izzy doesn't feed the play, the change of life Ed is looking for. He is impeding it.

But then we see Ed and Stede together. After asking about his crew, Stede immediately talks and plays along with Ed. He shows him his things, clothes, and swaps clothes. The contrast with these two together from the "discomfort" shown earlier is striking. And we really see how much Ed and Stede already are drawn to each other, complete a part that they have been looking for their whole lives.

They were so miserable until they found their respective loves: Ed, Stede, Doug, and the crew.
