Rockin' This Pancake!

Famous “street artist” is on the same wavelength as Picasso.

Banksy constantly gives me reason to hate him.

Freaking the Fuck Out.

I got my sketchbook last week. It’s still blank because I’m freaking out over the pressure of knowing that it’s going in a library forever, where millions of people can see it.

Just thinking about designing the cover is giving me an apoplexy.

Ladies of Literature: Virginia Woolf

I’ve been looking forward to this one. Virginia Woolf was an awesome, weird lady.

She would have been so famous and wacky in the 1980’s.

Featured:

It seemed as if nothing were to break that tie — as if the years were merely to compact and cement it; and as if those years were to be all the years of their natural lives.

Ladies of Literature: Mary Shelley

Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein.

I imagine if she lived today, she would be a total Goth. And, apparently this woman LOVED her shoulders. They were bare in every one of her portraits.

Ladies of Literature: Emily Dickinson

A drawing of the famed recluse, Emily Dickinson. I’m doing a series of famous women in recorded history of literature. If you have any suggestions, please submit some in my ask. :)

She’s in a white sweatshirt. In her adult life, she wouldn’t leave her house, so it made sense to me to put her in something comfortable. And the white: when she did go out (rarely), she only wore white clothes.

Featured poem:

A solemn thing - it was - I said -

A Woman - White - to be -

And wear - if God should count me fit -

Her blameless mystery -

          - c. 1861
