International Day of Transgender Visibility

Signal Boost!

Blogging buddy Mary Kirkland of Dark Thoughts is asking people to help signal boost her daughter Lizzie's GoFundMe link on our social media sites. Lizzie is a young single mom in Las Vegas, Nevada, with lupus and other health issues who is currently in hospital with double pneumonia, sepsis, and 40% congestive heart failure. She will not be able to work for the foreseeable future and could really use some help with medical expenses.

Her longtime friend Savanna DuBose has organized a GoFundMe for Lizzie HERE.

Best wishes to Lizzie and her family as she recovers from this terrible health situation.

Monday Murals -- Fringe Festival Jester

I'm taking part today in 

Monday Murals hosted by Sami.

This colourful Jester is the logo of the

Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival,

North America's oldest and largest

annual festival of alternative theatre.

This indoor mural is a large donor recognition wall

located in the Old Strathcona Arts Barns

in the neighbourhood where the

Fringe Festival occurs every August.

I have "fringed" for many years and it's a fun time!

ShouXin's Captivating Cat Drawings

[A link party about art issues hosted by

Nicole of DVArtist, Art, Food and Everyday Things]

This contemporary artist is an absolute master

of minimalism and the powerful use of negative space.

With just a few simple lines of graphite surrounding

detailed, expressive eyes, ShouXin creates dynamic

portraits which perfectly capture feline

character, moods, and physicality.

Filled Up Your Gas Tank Yet?

And KUDOS to everyone in the USA

who is MARCHING and PROTESTING today

against the MAGA Trump Administration!

Friday Face OFF -- Victoria Sin

For today's Friday Face OFF link party

of art featuring faces, hosted by Nicole of

DVArtist, Art, Food and Everyday Things --

I love the outrageousness of drag performers' looks,

attitudes, and gender challenges. Here's my portrait of

the fabulous Victoria Sin, done in watercolour paint,

watercolour pencils, and black ink pen.

Sin Wai Kin is a non-binary performance artist known for their

immersive use of fantasy and speculative fiction to create worlds

and characters that reflect on language, reality, time, identity, and duality.

Among their many complex characters is Victoria Sin, a classic drag queen.

If you want to hear Sin Wai Kin's thoughts on

Victoria Sin's purpose and significance, here's a short,

quite fascinating video --
