I posted this last week, but turns out I wasn't alright with glassless Felix after all. And then I decided to add quick shading and background too, to make it visually a little more interesting :) Also, no sound this time - I found it distracting.

Normally, I wouldn't share photos of myself, but I was sewing a bit, so here you go. Old duvet cover transformed into a frilly shirt, haha.

The main point of Christianity was this: that Nature is not our mother: Nature is our sister. We can be proud of her beauty, since we have the same father; but she has no authority over us; we have to admire, but not to imitate. This gives to the typically Christian pleasure in this earth a strange touch of lightness that is almost frivolity. Nature was a solemn mother to the worshippers of Isis and Cybele. Nature was a solemn mother to Wordsworth or to Emerson. But Nature is not solemn to Francis of Assisi or to George Herbert. To St. Francis, Nature is a sister, and even a younger sister: a little, dancing sister, to be laughed at as well as loved.

decided to do some painting practice and the feral urge to draw that one part in the phantom of the opera where christine, raoul and the phantom are sing-screaming over each other in final lair came upon me

sharing older art as my Procreate is currently crashing every other brushstroke 💔

Referenced from a J.C. Leyendecker painting

i put christine in the phantoms house so they could have some quality time and she ran outta his house and this is what she told me. okay

still fucks me up what a bad rap coyotes get in peoples eyes. like ive talked to people who  see em as like. gross pests who should be culled. theyre literally just as cool as wolves just a lil smaller and less confident. i love them with all my heart to balance out all the coyote haters out there, coyotes rule theyre doing great

[amygdalae]

imagine having hatred in your heart for this beast

[amygdalae]

this post was so fucking funny I literally was just like “I like coyotes I think they’re cool” and so many people fucking hated it. Shut up I’m trying. To enjoy animal

This is a silly question, but do you have any Phantom fic recs??? Your Erik/Christine art is so lovely, I want to know if you are reading anything to inspire you!

Hi! Not a silly question at all (and thank you so much)!

Man, I have SO many. Here are just a few of my all-time favorites, many of which are pretty legendary in the phandom at this point. Also would love recs for others in the comments, if anyone has them!
