I’m Taylor :) I make comics that make you feel things and draw a lot of snails. Commissions are open, 2/4 slots are available!!

New commissions sheet!

I’ve got room for about 4 slots at a time, and will keep those updated in my bio, and you can find a ton of examples of commissioned work I’ve done in my “my art” tag.

Dm me if you’re interested and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can!

Thanks for the support!

hello! I adore your piece of the Canaan house group in a modern setting and was wondering if it was ok to get a tattoo inspired by Gideons? (I completely understand if not and won't be upset at all if you say no <3 the only real similarities would be the fencing wrapped around the bicep dndn)

have a lovely day <3

this is so rad!! Absolutely go for it if you want to, i feel like the idea is pretty general anyway so there’s no way I could really hold a claim on it loll

But thank you so much for liking the piece and checking anyway!

The Australian Ballet is doing Alice in Wonderland again and on one hand I’ve seen it before, and on the other, their Queen of Hearts has my favourite costume in anything every

It’s just this and her court pushes her around the stage on wheels and every act it gets taller until she towers over everyone

Also in act 3 (I think) it swings open at the front and her husband is sitting inside reading a newspaper

I saw this again on Tuesday so here are some things I’d forgotten about:

  • This is the only Alice adaptation I’ve ever seen that doesn’t cut the caucus race
  • The mad hatter wears taps throughout and it’s so jarring and surprising it’s perfect
  • The executioner shadows almost everyone who dances with the Queen
  • Lewis Carroll is a character in the ballet and becomes the white rabbit who leads Alice into wonderland which is bad and wrong because Carroll is the dodo but does work very well
  • They started dropping rose petals from the ceiling onto the audience when Alice looked through the door to the garden and it was utterly magic
  • The Cheshire Cat is made of about 10 different puppets that dance around the stage
  • Which reminds me Alice is styled after Alice Liddell rather than the John Tenniel illustrations
  • I don’t think the king of hearts actually dances he just wanders around looking confused

the Caterpillar is pretty neat too

(all of these videos are from the Royal Ballet’s productions in 2014 and 2017)

Finally an adaptation that makes feel like I’m going to have stroke, it’s perfect

This looks fucking bonkers, I love it.

Wow fascinating!

being an artist and revisiting media you liked when you were 11 is like. oh ok. this shaped my sense of humor and the way I write characters and the way I pace narratives and the tropes I'm drawn to. and I vastly underestimated how much of an impact it had on me because I literally have not thought about it for 15 years. but it was there inside me the whole time. ok. ok cool! c ool

i hate when kink blogs do this. do they think it makes it hotter. i feel like i'm playing a mystery vn with this kinda shit

Yeah it’s kind of weird. Hang on I think I just noticed a new door in my house

Piranesi concept art!

I hadn’t seen anyone really tackle the drowned halls yet (as far as I know) so I thought I’d take a crack at it to practice painting environments

For the person who wanted to see the diorama, here you go! From its ugly hot glue conception to painted form to being in the dark in my tub

I be sending myself screenshots of my own wips before going to bed so I can then look at them while at work the next morning like

for whomever it may concern

End After the End, my wlw apocalyptic risograph zine I put together for a class final, now scanned and PDF-ed and READY TO VIEW!!

Tumblr may murder the quality of these images, but it can't murder the link to my Ko-fi where you are now able to collect the far better quality 16 page pdf.... an offer most tempting
