How did you first get interested in lobsters before your project? I feel the same way with Praying Mantas'. I have a phobia of insects, but for some reason they don't trigger it. Instead I can hold them and I often do when I find one. For me, they're a little like an inverse of a lobster is to you maybe? An outsider but in the way that I don't shiver meeting one. Like when I meet someone who doesn't find me off putting that way I find most bugs.
I relate to them and their lanky bodies. How the girls get a bad rap for something they do when stressed. As someone with Autism and ADHD, I spent most of elementary school without friends, so I befriended the squirrels and birds. Now that I'm surrounded by people who actually care for me, outside my family, I feel like that little mantis. Alot of people don't like us, but I do. And the people who matter do too.
this ask made me so happy! thanks for writing in!!
your connection with praying mantises is so sweet. it genuinely brings me so much joy. i relate a lotttt. i do the same thing, i find so much in common with animals/ inanimate objects that get overlooked by other people, not sure why, but ive been like that since a kid. okay now i ramble
i absolutely had 0 emotions about lobsters before i started this whole thing and now its like an all-encompassing obsession. i wish i could properly explain it. ive never eaten lobster and i didnt know that was as common as it was. i had no idea there was a "lobter" meme until people started telling me about it. i dont even know how they entered my head as an option, i was planning on just making it about animals i really like drawing (dogs, cats, etc), but as soon as the idea hit me i knew i had to do it.
and in that way i think this project is kind of, me backwards-thinking trying to understand how i got here. my connection was so immediate, before i even started the first piece, and i still am trying to figure out why??? and now, genuinely, when people think it's a joke or say my lobsters are funny, or even say they think they're gross-- i feel so misunderstood. i get so mad. its that essence of not being taken seriously, it strikes genuine fear in me.
"a lot of people don't like us, but i do. and the people who matter do too"-- yes. thank you.

also, for fun, heres some in progress stuff from that piece. this was my first pass of layering with the oil pastel & some thumbnails.
I was buying clothes today and saw a really pretty lobster shirt and immediately thought about your art. (I ended up buying it bc it was pretty and after seeing your posts it kinda has a hidden deeper meaning too, ty for your work)
OH MY GOSH .. WHAT. THIS IS SO SO COOL THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME!! i am honored!!!!!
well now i have to ask if you want to show the shirt. i need to see it....

(anon who Gets your lobsters) like no your explanation as well. i'm literally starting to kin lobsers now. because like. when i'm "too emotionally vulnerable" i call myself raw meat. sometimes i really do feel like there is something missing from me that makes it impossible for me to hide what's underneath; to hide the raw flesh (like for example an exoskeleton). i feel like you gave me a voice with your explanation.
the "imagine physically trying to turn yourself inside out and exposing your fleshy, soft, and vulnerable insides at the bottom of the ocean" really resonates with me as someone healing from CPTSD in a world that often feels, or rather is, cruel and unforgiving to my exposed state.
i'm not a furry but i was already in one of the categories people group with furries (kin/therian) so i hope it's still helpful to hear exactly how i relate to your current art.
you made me tear up with this message holy shit :') i'm so, so lucky to have reached you like this & im so grateful you shared this with me. you are exactly the type of person i want to make art for. i hope you continue to feel like your voice is heard in art, and everything, really.
Hey I found this at a goodwill
It's probably a reference but I immediately thought of you.
AHH im honored you thought of me!! thanks for sharing!!
and yeah this is a reference to the show "friends" which i only became aware of because of people telling me about it. it's more lobster publicity so i support it
Loving your recent art!
thank you! :D
