Some works are so captivating that nothing else matters anymore. This one is exactly like that. There’s something enchanting, wild, and inhuman about it.

Sometimes my clients believe in me way more than I do myself. It was my first time drawing a dinosaur, but wow, I really loved it!

belated mermay 🧜🏻‍♀️

Сьогодні почуваюсь трохи випускницею. 5 років активної роботи над собою не пройшли даремно. І треба частіше нагадувати сама собі що я молодець

Завжди любила цю роботу за активний рожевий колір тут

[densewood273]

Час від часу мене тягне на стилізацію. Обожню малювати Реї такий гострий носик, а ще хотілось трошки поколупатись і по штрихувати, як раніше.

For the 100th time: Ukraine is not Palestine

By Anastasia Lebedenko - A Personal War

I wish I said this phrase to a man who was screaming at me last Sunday, comparing me, Ukrainian, to a Palestinian. It took me a week to cry this situation out, and then another few days to try and put it into words. So, here’s a story of how an apartment viewing turned into a political fight and (sort of) a harassment case.

Ukraine is in a funny spot. It’s abandoned by the people on the left because they see the West as inherently bad, and refuse to see russia for the imperial hellhole that it is, sticking to its romanticised communist-dream past. Ukraine-russia war is not viewed through an imperial lens, because people cannot fathom the idea that imperialist agenda does not have a skin colour. It’s abandoned by the right because why should anyone get involved in a war that’s not theirs? Ukraine is seen as an altogether separate entity from the so-called West — what happens there has no real bearing on life of an average American or European, so it should be none of their business.

Ukrainians are even in a funnier spot — seen as too white to be suffering the consequences of imperialism, too Christian to be suffering from a religious persecution, too similar to the neighbours who attack them to be differentiated from them. We’re all the same, the Slavs, right? A vast and empty steppe full of Russian-speaking people (oh wait, do you have your own language?) Can’t you just divide up a territory, if you’re one of the same?

Нарешті смарагдовий #mermay. В цій роботі є щось космічне і одночасно глибинне. #РікКольорівChromaticJourney #КривийЧелендждлярозгону

The language of stars upon black water, the names of gods erased from stone, and the price of every bargain made beneath the moonlight.

There are women who are saved. There are women who are feared. And then there are those after whom forests become sacred.
