Portrait artist, leftie, queer.
I’m working on a new idea that needed an actual beating heart. I’ve had to learn a lot about animatronics. Needs a silicone skin and then the rest of the installation. #art

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? opened in theaters. Instant cult classic status!

Crawford as Blanche: You wouldn't be able to do these awful things to me if I weren't still in this chair.

Davis as Baby Jane: But cha AAH, Blanche, ya AAH in that chair!

Hitler had a large ball room/ reception hall built at the Old Reich Chancellery in Berlin This was part of a major renovation of the building after he became Chancellor. It was designed by Albert Speer and completed in 1939

“Le Pont de l'Espoir" (The Bridge of Hope), after Caillebotte (2nd image). A painting responding to the ongoing debate about how to interpret Calllebotte's Le Pont de l'Europe. My version imagines how it might have looked in a world without gay shame. #caillebotte

New painting - “Sancta Regina”, oil on canvas, 60”x48”. This is a portrait of @rhiansongs.bsky.social — a singer who grew up in the church as the son of a pastor — reimagined with the grandeur of religious ceremony through a queer lens.

Tried photo etching today based on old drawings I’d already created. Lots more to learn but a fun start.

Tiny self-portrait painted in acrylics of me visiting the last day of the Caravaggio exhibition with his Narcissus painting in the background. I was wearing TM Davy’s trans fundraiser t-shirt. About 7x9cm.

Deeply concerned that changes to trans rights could be approved without MPs or the public seeing details. This risks undermining accountability on issues affecting lives and freedoms. Proposals must face scrutiny before approval. Everyone deserves to know what’s being decided in their name.

The first politicised human rights reports by the US have been published. I won’t link them. I am appalled. No longer a serious document. See the conclusion on El Salvador by the US - and compare to that of Amnesty International.

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT.

If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.
