Gender
image
I think about gender many times. I think about what it means to be a man or a woman, whether it's ingrained or a choice, whether there's only two genders or several, etc. In this artwork, I tried to create a person that was half man, half woman. When I was working on this drawing, I was also looking over books about lettering and calligraphy and so was inspired to create my own kind of style of lettering. As with much of my art, the style seen here was inspired by Nouveau and vintage poster art. I used purple for the letters and backdrop for it vibrancy and its' significance in the gay community. To achieve a smooth appearance, I used Copic markers and brown pens.
