recently I’ve been helping my friends with a show for the New Orleans Giant Puppet Festival. The show is called Eyes of the Beholder- it’s beauty and the beast, but with lesbian bug elves in an industrial fascist nightmare world. (obviously, the themes everyone wants and needs)
.
for my part, I drew a series of illustrations that were projected as part of the prologue.
I’ll post more later, but for now here are some stills from the show….

thanks for looking!

was so sick to see my art existing in the intricately layered world of velvet effigy (velvet_effigy on ig). i wish i could share a video of the whole show… i cannot now, but maybe at a later date… (!)
