The best part of going to the American school in Singapore was being able to have henna on my hands during Diwali and not get in trouble for it.

There. All done. So now for the fun part.
This is based on a poster by Richard Roland-Holst, done for a showing of Goethe’s Faust. This artist did very beautiful posters for other plays and theater presentations you should go look at if you have the time.
Anime-relevant headcanon/thoughts below the cut.
Bringing this back retro since I’m /finally/ drawing something with AnE Faust again.
mirie requested my favorite troll pestering my favorite kid… normally I would have drawn Eridan (I have too many favorites), but I’ve drawn him a lot lately so I did Equius instead.
Basically this turned into a fan art for the best pesterlog ever
Roman Opałka was a French-born Polish painter who painted numbers. In 1965 he began painting a process of counting – from one to infinity. Starting in the top left-hand corner of the canvas and finishing in the bottom right-hand corner, the tiny numbers were painted in horizontal rows. As of July 2004, he had reached 5.5 million. (via triangulation)
This got saved at a teeny resolution somewhere along the line which made coloring a pain- this is the 100% size. As a result I don’t think I could hate this more if I tried. OH WELL.
Instead let’s just take a moment to discuss how no fanartists ever draw Koltira’s beard ???

c. 1870
IMA says: This two-piece visiting dress is made in two shades of gray silk faille. The skirt is lavishly trimmed with pleated silk swags, silk fringe, flounces and piping. Pleated ruching and silk fringe are also used on the bodice. The skirt has a short train and is worn with a bustle. The triangular pocket on the right side of the skirt, trimmed with buttons and cord lacing, was designed to hold a parasol.
