Do you identify as trans?
And want to be turned into art for free?
Hi. Iâll get straight to the point. Iâm doing an art project investigating trans identity- and how ignorance can affect the community and individuals. I need âmodelsâ for me to do paintings/drawings of over the entire project, yet the problem is I donât have the resources to collect the images myself. Itâs quite simple, really. All you need to do is send me a picture of yourself with some extra information. Iâd really appreciate if as many people as possible tried to send in a picture!Â
[also please reblog so I can get people to see this!]
Also make sure that:
The picture is of you
Youâre over 18 (or 16, with parental consent)
You identify as trans
If youâre included, I wonât put the image online without your permission, but Iâll send anyone I paint a photo of their thing.Â
Include in the email to [email protected]Â :
Your picture- A good quality picture of you, in good light, and preferably shoulders upwards. Not a mirror selfie or group photo or anything please!
A bit about you- How you identify, pronouns, age, name, etc⌠(Only identity and pronouns are compulsory- I want to include as wide a range of experiences as possible)
How ignorance has affected you in your experiences related to your identity- This can be positively or negatively. Donât be afraid to write a lot- the more information about your experiences with your identity and ignorance, the better!
What changes youâd like to see in attitudes toward and about the trans community
Thank you so much if you email!
If youâre unsure, look at the stories behind each work in Drew Rileyâs Gender Portraits. Also for the photos! If you have any questions you can email me them, send an ask, or message me- I donât mind. Thank you :)
Iâm specifically asking if women/transfemine people could take part! Anyone else is still free to email me, but I only have one person who is and thatâs not as much variety as Iâd like.
Seriously if youâre unsure or have doubts send an ask or message, the writing can be three lines and Iâll pad it out to the length Iâd like it if thatâs your concern.
