Pls check out my theme tune for the audio described version of my comic book. The theme tune features queer ESEA Keira May (they/them) on vox & 🎸. I used the sound of 🐶 to make the beat!

My queer bi femme East Asian character LH from the mid 2000s has re-emerged for solidarity with trans femmes and also suggestive humour (cos trans people need a laugh ffs!)

Trans women are women is the slogan on a purple t shirt long sleeves, worn by East Asian femme with hair in black straight bob and watermelon boots

Hard launching here. I’m many things for money, a comedian, photographer, researcher, budding filmmaker for life. I’m a Portuguese immigrant in London & I’m interested in cinema, sex, food, queer history, and other histories of us that can help us reflect on our present. 👋

Is it portfolio day? I don't have a portfolio post ready, but chapter four is finally done and will go to print this week. 👀

I'll share more soon, once my brain has recovered from relentless inking, colouring and lettering. 😵‍💫

Spending Women’s Day painting on a pink wall with WOM Street Art Collective…what a blast! 🩷✨ good vibes all around!

📍 Allen Gardens / Brick Lane / London, UK

Street art by kitsuneart on a pink wall. A female knight with short wavy hair and bangs, her eyes are closed and she has nose and ear piercings. She has an halo of thorns and thorns surround her. Two roses in full bloom just below her paudrons and petals all around. The image is only until the torso and under that an heart shaped locker. The image is on a white background and black ink.

Work in progress picture or KitsuneArt working on the previous image piece.

Animator & community artist needs our help! Pls donate or repost!
Yaya has to raise £7.5k for their artist visa app. Their divestment from exploitative, pro-genocide structures in the art industry + chronic pain, disability + lack of support network makes this journey difficult!
