Red Scharlach Points At Interesting Things
Hello, I'm an English female grown-up and an enthusiastic purveyor of various forms of internet whimsy. This is a place to show you stuff I've drawn or written or otherwise cobbled together, as well as stuff I simply like the look of. You can also find me on Twitter, Instagram or Livejournal, or buy things in my Redbubble shop.

When you've got a comfy place to recline and some decent reading material and therefore you don't give a hoot about whatever-the-fuck's meant to be happening in the rest of the picture
“As if an angel dropped down from the clouds”, William Blake’s 1809 illustration to Henry IV by a certain William Shakespeare whose birthday is celebrated #onthisday in 1564 (also his death day in 1616).
See our collection of art inspired by his plays: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/shakespeare-in-art

My name is Poll

My mistress didn't
Know rude words
But now she does
I'm cunty bird
Honolulu Star-Bulletin, Hawaii, May 26, 1913

I do not fear the duck of shame. But the goose of regret regularly gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Feel its power.

All the Loki panel publicity this week has made me remember how much I miss them (and their beautiful production design).
It's not about when, where, or why...It's about who.

By day she's your grocer's sweetheart.
By night she's Madame Bodega, the Midnight Mistress of Emergency Snacks, flinging Pringles at ne'er-do-wells wherever they do their business.

How excited am I about the prospect of more seasons of The Night Manager? So excited that I've added more Jonathan Pine products to my Redbubble shop, that's how excited.

I love this piece of jewelry and so looked up the Vicús people on Wikipedia. It says that only men were allowed to wear jewelry in their culture, so I am now picturing a fearsome Vicús warrior who is extremely ripped and terrifying and also likes wearing nose jewelry with adorable kitty-cats on because he loves their boopable noses and fuzzy pawsies.
~ Nose Ornament.
Date: A.D. 2nd–6th century

Or alternatively, the City Where You've Just Woken Up The Houses With Some Bullshit And They Really Aren't Happy About It
The Eyes of Sibiu are the iconic eyebrow dormers on the roofs of Sibiu's houses in Romania. Built mostly between the 15th and 19th centuries, the eyes, which were used as a ventilation system for the houses' attics, have given Sibiu the nickname of "The City Where Houses Don't Sleep"

Watched Ripley on Netflix, so drawing Mini-Tom was the obvious next step. He's now available in my Redbubble store. Let's hope he behaves himself…
