I wanted to get faster at portraiture, and what better way to do that than to do lots of portraits?  I'd say this one fits in with the other portrait I did of her as part of a series of me using my characters to illustrate hair styles to the end goal of faster paintings. This is Tzipporah with her loose hair, and is very much in keeping with many of the Renaissance portraits of courtesans and wealthy mens' mistresses, like Veneto's "Courtesan as Flora" (Minor nudity at the link - one nipple!)

The loonies who sought a glorious death found it early on. This rapidly cleared the chain of command of the accumulated fools. The survivors were those who learned to fight dirty, and live, and fight another day, and win, and win, and win, and for whom nothing, not comfort or security, not family or friends or their immortal souls was more important than winning.  Dead men are losers by definition.

Dr James Barry, the first doctor to perform a successful C section wherein both mother and child survived, was a huge champion of handwashing at a time when most doctors didn’t wash their hands. For this reason, many of the chilldbirths he delivered resulted in healthier babies and mothers. He was also a gay trans man, who specifically wrote that upon his death he wished for his body to be taken in its nightshirt, wrapped in his sheets as a shroud, and placed into the coffin so that nobody would see his body. His wishes were not respected, and as a result he was outed at his death.

da2 is what happens when you get a bunch of dnd characters and then don’t really give them a campaign you just toss them into a city to live there and have Shenanigans. 

“I’m playing a elven blood mage.” “yeah, okay, what’s she doing in a human city?” “research.”

“I’m playing a dwarven bard.” “....and?” “just a dwarven bard.” “is he, like, a spy, a wandering adventure, what? why’s he away from the mountain?” “fuck if i know.”
