#my drawing #visual art #2023 #pre-raphaelite #frederick sandys #shakespeare #the winter's tale #perdita #artists on tumblr #shakespearean heroines #i did this on the same board i've done my other whiteboard drawings that i've posted #idk if i've mentioned this. but it's in the math tutoring center where my sister works lol #i haven't been there in two months. i don't take any math classes anymore so i'm really just chillin in there. sometimes i socialize #sometimes i do my own studying. that's how i started these expo marker drawings. is that i was looking at paintings for inspiration for my #figure drawing final. and id do a sketch in my sketchbook and then copy it from my sketchbook onto the board. and id leave em there #obviously nothing about that is against the rules even if that's not what that room is *for* ... im allowed to just kick back #i always wondered what the other ppl who work in there thought of my whiteboard drawings. bc id leave em up. and sometimes they wouldnt be #erased for like a week or two. hell. the last one i posted (the love potion by evelyn de morgan) was my least impressive imo #but it was only erased like a week ago. it stayed up for like 2 months. kaily told one of her coworkers he could erase it and he was like #'its been there since last year... and out of respect for that i will not be the one to do it.' #lol like they're nice but they're not sacred #but anyway i went at a different time of day and stayed in there for several hours just reading and drawing while other ppl did math #i met three other ppl who worked there that i'd never met before. and they were all like 'oh are you kailys sister who does the drawings?' #i guess some of them really like them lol. it touched my heart #one guy in his 40s also saw i was reading a book on john donne & was pretty interested in that combined w my choice of the winter's tale #i guess he's a bit of an early-modern english lit buff himself. he's a christian. he said he liked george herbert. #he said smth to another student like 'yeah you can do math in here. or you can. draw on the board. or read books about #sixteenth century poets and theologians. whatever you want' #i didnt know anyone there would actually be impressed w anything i do. since it is not stem-related at all. #i guess i bring that old school humanities swag to the math center hahahaha
