Oh y’all thought I was done making flash? Working on something fun-

#tattoo #flash #queer
A page of queer themed tattoo flash illuminated on a portable light box. There are gay frogs french kissing, a pinned green carnation, a little pansy with a heart, a cute sweating popper bottle with cartoon eyes, a little oat milk container with a cute cartoon face, a jean short butt with a bandanna hanging out of the pocket, a brick with Marsha written on it hitting a pig cop in the face, in bubble letters the words dyke, enby, and fag, and a little t4t in candy hearts. The border is in progress and checkerboard. Behind the flash sheet is a mug of tea and a tray with various colored acrylic inks

Tired guy who was just trying to take their cats to the vet and not get hit on and read by multiple lesbians in the process

Its just rly rly cute and fun, the frog has a gay frog themed tattoo sleeve 🥲
#design #illustration #queer #frog
Bug holds up the shirt they designed on a slim black hanger in front of their bookshelf filled with all sorts of art and trinkets. The shirt is a light cream natural color and has a gay punk little frog doing a peace sign and holding a book. They have a beanie, septum piercing, sleeve of frog tattoos, jeans and platform black boots. On their jeans is a caribeaner with a dragonfly key. The frog is sitting on a mushroom on top of a giant lilypad, and to the right is a stack of books as tall as the frog. On the spines of 4 of the books it says “Read Books Be Gay” there is a little rainbow, clouds, and drawn sparkles at the top. Its all drawn in a very cute but printmakery and colorful style.

When Out of Print asked “can you draw us a gay frog?” I replied “You’ve come to the right place.”

Read Books Be Gay frog shirt now available on their website

I am sweating like a victorian gentleman at this flash of ankle
Luigi Mangione’s ankles, demurely crossed, saddle leather loafers on his feet and wearing a pair of khaki chinos. Each ankle is cuffed with a chain dangling down between.

Isn’t it weird and funny how everything can be so bad and scary and also cozy and serene? It makes you think of like, calm quiet moments of joy that must have happened amidst the worst historical events. It makes me feel kinda connected to every human that ever lived?

Feels like there’s been a little breakthrough, a feeling like these sound more like my voice, but folky and a little trad, closer to the kind of tattoo style I’m imagining in my head.

He just fits 🥲❤️
A fluffy orange and white cat sitting on the top of a shelf. The warm glow of a lamp illuminates tons of books, an old leaded glass window behind the cat, and above more art, trinkets, and crystals.

Good morning from my gay little cube with my gay little birthday moon balloon slowly deflating. Bagel person gayly said the green I’m wearing is my color “by the way.” Not a bad start

I feel like I’ve left my toddler alone at home by himself (I’m in the office 2 days a week) & it feels weird and wrong 🥲

Hope he’s just doing this and not wrecking all my shit. I could tell he needed to play this morning but I had to hurry and get out the door 😭

I’ve never had a cat so unmotivated by treats & food/just wants cuddles and attention. A gift. A well deserved W. In constant awe.
