I have some new followers so I guess it's time to do another little presentation post 😌
About me
Hi! My name is Keagan, but also Clémentine (my birthname - you can use both, you can call me Clem too). I am currently 34, I live in France (in the south), and I am a graphic designer and illustrator - and hopefully in a couple months aspiring web designer 🤞
I am a proud bisexual & greysexual (I'll often just say "ace").
And I am nonbinary: I think genderfluid - I identify as woman sometimes but many other times this just makes me feel like it's not really me, it doesn't quite fit. I identify sometimes as a woman - I identify with what women experience also, I am a feminist and my experience is one of a woman, and although I don't identify as woman most of the time I feel to be part of it - and most of the time as nothing at all.
Edit, I forgot the pronouns : she/they (elle/iel or ael in french); I don't have preferences, but I've been called "she" all my life and very rarely experienced being addressed with "they" so I'd really like people to use it more. 😊
Also I am disabled: I am autistic - not diagnosed yet but I have just started the process of getting it diagnosed. I also have dyscalculia, and chronic pain (my squeleton is sliiightly crooked, not much but enough to cause me immense pain 🥲 - in knees, back, and hips) - I also have generalised anxiety disorder and depression. And I am short-sighted and I have tinnitus, and a couple other things.
I have been touched by a bitch of a fairy at birth I tell you 😂
I am very open about all of this so if you happen to need someone to talk to about those subjects, I'm here, I can't provide answers but I can share my experiences.
About my blog(s)
I have a blog for my art here: @keagan--ashleigh ; both are me, I've just put an extra dash as to not confuse people when they see 2 usernames interacting with them 😅
I have been on this blue hell since 2012, at first I had an aesthetic blog but it very quickly became a social justice blog, and I created a side blog (this one) for fandoms, at first mainly spn, then BBC Sherlock, and although I kept the title and decorum it returned to its multifandom/multisubjects state.
I also talk about other subjects occasionally, it's not a one-subject blog, I often blog & reblog funny stuff, social justice, etc.
I occasionally post in french but I have associated Tumblr with english strongly - I will maybe introduce a bit more of french in here idk.
I usually liveblogs Eurovision, the past years I have been doing that on Twitter bc it's hard to livetweet and liveblog at the same time but if twitter goes down I'll come back here lmao. And on twitter I also sometimes livetweet Top Chef in french but I might to that in here as well if I can't on Twitter idk - is there an audience for that here idk 😅
Most of my french specific stuff where on twitter, like I said I have associated tumblr with english and international stuff, and I don't know how I'll gonna get my french internet experience back in tumblr, we'll see but maybe you'll see more of my french specific stuff in the future, or I'll make a third side blog idk yet.
Worth to note I have a tagging system on both my blogs - and I tag the spoilers (unless for some reason I forget).
I often vent in the tags - it was, in this regard, better when ops couldn't see the tags in their notifications :o) I feel exposed now 😭
My ask box is always open.
About fandoms and opinions
My fandoms are: BBC Sherlock, Supernatural, Marvel, Our Flag Means Death, What We Do In The Shadows, Good Omens, Doctor Who, etc
My favorite ships: johnlock, destiel, Aziraphale & Crowley, lokius, nandermo, gentlebeard, 13th & Yaz, etc
About opinions and discourses:
I am a ship and let ship kind of person but that doesn't mean I approve of everything. I will never use the terms proshipper/anti because those words have been bastardised and the definition changes everytime I see it show up - so it's better if I just tell you what I like and don't like: I do not like incest ships, I do not like pedo ships, I am not against the fact of writing about those things but I don't like them being romanticised and glorified even. And no I don't think "it's ok because it's fiction" - whether it be fanwork or else what is written or shown in fiction has an impact on the real world, always, in a positive or negative way.
I will not engage in discourses about that though because it is tiring and useless.
I will not engage in ageist discourses either because - yes I think it's stupid to say fun has an end for people when they reach 30 but time will prove ageist people wrong and it's just sound stupid to me to have fights with literal kids over this. I'd rather enjoy my shit in my corner and not bother or be bothered by any of this.
I see a lot of ageism and condescendance from older people as well and I don't like that, being young doesn't mean people's inputs and opionions are wrong. About the fact joy must end at 30, yes, but cutting the discussions short (on various subjects) with "young people are so prude now / they don't enjoy anything/ yadda yadda"... no. No let's not do that. Times are changing and maybe some things we thought were ok then are not ok now and before we shut them up I think maybe we should listen and question what we think is true, let's not become the boomers of this generation ok, let's keep our minds open and be critical of ourselves first, we might at worst expand our worldview. And of course it goes both ways. Respect goes both ways.
At large, I will mostly enjoy my stuff and not engage with negativity, i do not have the mental health to deal with that, if people are wrong let them be wrong in their corners. Not saying I will never engage in any sort of argument but I'd rather stay away from most (especially those 2 I mentioned). I will never stop criticise mofftiss and Sherlock s4 though 😂
I also do not like ship hate.
I am uncomfortable with shipping real people but I am not against it of course do as you please as long as you don't overstep & be rude with the real people you're shipping.
And also, if I see someone implying a real person is "queerbaiting" because they appear queer & bully them into coming out I will virtually slap you in the head, ok, real people don't queerbait, period.
Last thing: I stand with the L, the G, the B, the T, the A, and all the other letters of that beautiful acronym so if you don't include trans people and ace people: please begone. :)
And also I try to be inclusive, I will not overstep and speak above other communities but I will try my very best to listen and forward those people's voices. I will not engage in discussions/arguments I am not meant to be a part of. I will try my best to take my part in making bigots feel unwelcome.
This blog, and all my accounts here and elsewhere are meant to be safe spaces for LGBTQIAP+, POC, disabled people, etc.
About me (again) - hobbies & creation
I happen to make fanarts, and I write fanfics and ficlets, I also do fanplaylists. Writing is one of my hobbies beside drawing, I also do photography, and I have recently started sculpting too. I love creating stuff so I often make little things, like I can sew, craft stuff, I do bullet journaling, etc.
Like I said I'm a professional artist, you'll find all the infos on my other blog but basically : I draw fantasy art, mostly women and feminine people.
I love science (astronomy and astrophysics in particular), arts, cats (I have 4), animals in general, I love music (I have eclectic tastes, I like rock, metal, classic, pop, jazz, etc...), I love to read & watch movies and shows (also eclectic but I love SFFF and horror the most).
---
Voilà, I guess it covers the basis of who I am and what this blog is. Welcome and I hope you enjoy the ride (if you don't it's ok, just don't be rude). 🥰

Hi !
So I have decided to use this old blog again to showcase my art!
You might know me from my side blog, which is the same username, just one dash, that's me, hey 👋
I had a html code that redirected people on my side blog automatically, I had to choose another theme to get rig of it so that's why my blog is not particularly pretty at the moment, I'll work on that
I need to tidy up my old reblogs a little bit too, I don't know if I'm deleting everything or keep some aesthetic stuff but - anyway - don't get distressed by the nonsense you'll see beyond this post lol
I mainly use watercolours and I have recently (since around 2019) started doing digital painting. I also do a lot of pencil and pen/felt pen sketches.
Suffering from depression and executive dysfunction, I have a hard time drawing very regularly so sketches are a way for me to actually do stuff and not get too frustrated with myself, as they require close to no set up at all, I just grab my sketchbook, a pencil or whatever and scribble stuff. They are not always particularly good nor interesting but I enjoy doing them and this is ok.
I do maintly fantasy art, I love to draw female presenting characters. I also draw fanarts. My main fandoms are Sherlock/johnlock, Supernatural, Our Flag Means Death, Marvel, Good Omens, Hannibal, Doctor Who, and some others...
I will also show my fanarts on my side blog, maybe I'll repost myself, maybe I'll reblog from here i don't know yet! But here you will see more of what I do usually, fanarts are just a part of my craft.
On this blog I will also talk about art, give some advices, show some tutos maybe, I don't know yet, we'll see as we go! ^^
As you have maybe read on my bio, I am a graphic designer and an artist, I intend to make a living out of my art.
At the moment, due to laws and rules I can't share my shop and sell my art yet, but it'll soon reopen. I will sell originals and prints, and probably more.
I will also soon be available for commissions - for art as for graphic design. I will create a page with all the needed informations.
For now, until I add some stuff to this blog, you can learn more about me and my work here: https://keagan-ashleigh.carrd.co/
I can also be found on Instagram , Facebook and Tik Tok (that I don't use as much but I occasionnally make some videos).
If you'd still like to support me until I can sell my art again, my Kofi and paypal.me are open! I have close to no income besides state help so every cent will tremendously matter to me.
On this account, I will try to write the captions in english as well as in french, but don't be surprised if I use english more (like now).
I can't wait to start showing you my stuff! 😀 See you soon!

Share some of your hot takes! I want to know everything!
Alright let's go!
A classic: pinapple on pizza is actually good
John Watson is out of character in series 4
Izzy kinda deserves that his backstory & internalised homophobia be explored but he's an abusive asshole and shouldn't be forgiven for that (i love the character though)
Small talk should be prohibited (as should la bise in france, let's keep not doing that for real 😅)
T.aylor S.wift is overrated (I'm sorry - i'm joking i just mean I don't particularly like her music, that is all, don't hurt me 😂)
Bacon is disgusting
ASMR is the most annoying thing on earth to me (i have mysophonia, turns out)
French cinema and tv shows are awful (but from time to time a wild actual good movie/show appears)
Tarantino is overrated
It's okay to never have kids and it's okay to don't like kids (not okay to make them know it and be jerks though)
Gender is a complete illusion and completely made up and makes no sense
Autistic people are not the ones who are bad at communicating, neurotypicals are
It's okay to cut out people from your life as soon as you feel uncomfortable around them - even family, even lifelong friends
There is no nice way of mocking people, it's hurtful and bad
If you don't know any woman who's been assaulted and/or harassed, it's most likely that no woman felt safe enough around you to tell you
Same with other stuff btw, like, if you know no queer person, no neurodivergent person, no mentally ill person, etc... in fact you likely do
Funko pops are the best way to have fandom merch that is: pretty, cheap, cat-proof (meaning don't break easy), fun, enjoyable as toys, customable, etc
I don't think David Tennant is that sexy 😬 (as Crowley, yes, maybe, but that's it)
Animated movies should get better recognition
Marvel movies ARE cinema and can be absolutely brilliant and worth no less than any other kind of movie
I never liked Harry Potter, I never considered it good
I think people just talk about A.mber and J.ohnny's trial too much, they're both shitty people but the point is no one is impartial nor have all the elements to be able to to have an opinion on this subject appart from the main concerned, the jury, judges, and their lawyers (and some people are downright disrespectful while talking about it, it's not entertainment)
btw there's a reason in france filming trials is forbidden - this is the reason
Sherlock is still a brilliant show despite how it ended and who it was written by, I think it's not fair to now say s1, 2 and 3 where bad
Tracing from reference for art is ok
Using references for art is not only ok but necessary and useful
Work should be abolished and everything should be free
Saying "it's just fiction, it doesn't matter" is wrong, when defending problematic behavior in it, and when denying representation, fiction is never just fiction, it's impactful, it has consequences.
---
I can't think of more right now
I guess some of those aren't really hot takes idk but that's what came to my head 😄
