"I called it ethnic cleansing. But when I saw the images of starving babies in Gaza I had to upgrade my language."

By Art Spiegelman (Maus) and Joe Sacco

www.theguardian.com/world/pictur...

Comic strip-style dialogue between Spiegelman and Sacco; one panel:
I called it ethnic cleansing. But when I saw the images of starving babies in Gaza I had to upgrade my language.

sprinkling starlight across the fallen snow✨❄️

Digital artwork of a woman dressed in early medieval robes carries the moon suspended from a chain as she backs across a snowy forest clearing. Underneath her arm is tucked a wicker basket that is tipped to the ground, spilling with stars and twinkling light that scatters to the snow on the ground. The snow sparkles in the light of the moon she carries, and in the valley of the clearing is a small herd of tiny deer, dwarfed in size by the goddess above them. The artwork is colored in shades of pale blues and yellows to emphasize a wintry atmosphere.

Nine of Pentacles -- the whole thing! Featured in "Star Crossed: A Queer Tarot," this one is inspired by watching Matsuko Deluxe on Japanese television while I was on vacation, and also Kim Chi's drag makeup. Good stuff. :)

One week left on Starcrossed: A Queer Tarot! Here is the full version of the card I did: the Queen of Pentacles.

Please check out the campaign, it's a gorgeous deck!
www.kickstarter.com/projects/nov...

A voluptuous middle aged woman wearing a green dress and a leafy headdress sits holding a large golden pentacle propped on her hip. She offers a pomegranate half to two women in her retinue who kneel beside her. There's a lot of cleavage and exposed thighs and whatnot.

My illustration for The Moon for Nova and Mali's LGBTQ Tarot project; it was a fun challenging balancing the original card visuals with my own personal spin and experience.
