Ghost with Purple Glasses

me painting rainbow jackalopes while @subpar-lemon-bar spins rainbow silk right behind me

context from the submitter: theatre costumes designed by Charles Karl

commentary from the curator: there will definitely be more vintage costumes to enjoy in october (and sprinkled throughout the queue until then), but hopefully these are fun for a little halloween-in-the-summer vibe! ☺️🎃

commentary from the curator: I ended up combining the two options and going for theatre costumes that take inspiration from uniforms (and also sailing more generally). these are both from a production of HMS Pinafore, and I hope they fit what you were looking for! if not, please feel free to send in another request! ☺️

commentary from the curator: so, unfortunately I could not find any cat costumes from the 1870s-80s in the resources I use to source images for polls (this is not to say that they don't exist, but simply that I couldn't find any 😔) 😭😭 instead, I hope these very cursed looking ones from the 1890s are alright. the one on the right is specifically Puss in Boots, and the one on the left had no label (and I had to crop it for the poll, but the one on the left also has a (pet??) rat or mouse on that string)

That's why the best superhero deconstruction in the last 20 years was Lego Batman.

Ivysaur painting practice. I really need to do more of these kinds of studies from life. Its such a different experience over working from photos. So many colors you can see with your real eyeballs in life that are lost in photography
