Just stuff I've done over the last 2ish years...
The New Policeman ; Bus Stop are copies.
WIzard of Oz ; About a Boy are merged copies.*I don't know if that's a thing, but I copied bits of several posters to make my own*
Alice in Wonderland ; Dragon are my own, not copied at all.
And finally Susan and Death are a Discworld parody of a famous painting, do you know which?..

(Well, I've been crap about cross-posting my book photos for weeks now, but today's is topical / time-sensitive, so I'm gonna just skip right ahead and post it.)
Happy St Patrick's Day! Here's the book that started it all. I read The New Policeman when I was about ten and it triggered my interest in Irish music, which led to folklore and Irish dance, and is basically the reason I ended up studying medieval Irish and becoming the person I am today. Do I regularly think about how I could've been entirely unrecognisable as me if my grandma hadn't bought me this book? Absolutely.
Considering I'm a medievalist specialising in early Irish literature, a competitive Irish dancer, and a folk musician... I am actually doing very little this weekend. Which is probably just as well, as I have a tiny demon attempting to make a nest in my eyeball and I'm not sure how best to evict it. (Codeine and a nap, probably.)
I did, however, just upload a video in which I retell a deeply weird medieval story about St Patrick raising the ghost of Cú Chulainn. You thought stories about saints weren't full of sketchy necromancy and ghost-wrangling? You thought wrong. It's a fun text containing absolutely no historical facts whatsoever, it's been endorsed by Vox Hib on Twitter, and you should definitely watch it.
Yes, I filled my fiddle with flowers for this picture. Yes, there were some regrets.
