My Art My Art Recently I've been getting into DIY patches :)
so far this is just painting designs and phrases onto black cloth, here are all my designs so far
The first patch I made 🥰♀️ it is based off the No Dount song of the same name. I think the lyrics sort of speak to me.
Some patches I made themed after the band Florence and the Machine. the F+TM is something I saw on their website and the other is lyrics from the song Howl
while I added the F+TM patch on my jacket I don't think I'll be using the howl one as it's big and I used the fangs in the Good Girls patch
this patch is inspired by Mel Stone's song Baciami
These 2 patches I made at once. Hope Rides Alone is a chant from the Protomen's debut album the other is just a funny reference to the mega man games that I put on a bra of mine
From the song Light up the Night also from the Protomen. This is probably one of my favorites my only regret is the width is more than my shin lol so it kinda wraps a bit and it's difficult to read on my pants now
My favorite patch so far. This was inspired by Dog Park Dissidents song Bad Dog
So this patch has a sadder back story. I got the idea from someone in my life who said it would be "too confrontational"
This person later revealed his tru colors to me and attacked me for being trans. So really the patch was to spite him, to tell the world I won't be pushed around by men like him.
The actual text is also a reference to the song Keep Quiet
This one is also a bit complicated too lol. This was made for me by my at the time girlfriend for my birthday but we're not together anymore.
I decided to still post it here bc our time together meant alot to me even tho that's over.
It's an abbreviation of "What Would Ethel Cain Do?" who is a trans singer both her and I love.
I got the idea from this from an old political ad from the 1970's that was feminists for the legalization of weed.
Another song reference lol. This one is America Online by the Midnight.
They're a chill band that does somber kind of romantic music that I like to listen to when I want to relax and think about dancing lol.
Ok so this is for the video that I'm still working on lol.
Basically Spotify if you didn't know is terrible for smaller artists basically not paying them for their music. In the video I'm going to explain how you can use an iPod with Last.fm logging to replace your Spotify Wrapped.
Stay tuned I'm still working on that I'm just weak and it's difficult to keep to a schedule lol.
I made this the night that I'm updating this page lol.
"Queer as in Fuck You!" has been a saying from queer punks for a long time now but I also was inspired by another Dog Park Dissidents song called Queer as in Fuck You
The meaning is basically rejecting the notion of the "presentable gay" bc the people that hate us don't differentiate so you should just be yourself and tell bigots to fuck off.
My outfits also feature alot of patches I found online or in record stores and I thought even if I personally didn't make them they're apart of the outfit I'm making
here is all of the drawings I've made recently
most of them are sketches or made as jokes but some are also tattoo designs I want to have
I was in a few print making classes in college and I recently found most of my prints
this is some of the only art I still have from pre-transition and when I had a fixation on classic mega man games I apologize in advance
Unfortunately due to a bout of depression before I transitioned I no longer have any other artwork that I did pre-transition
