This poll is for round two of the Hottest Ballyhoo women bracket. Ballyhoo is a queer-noir graphic novel which follows a playwright and her play that goes terribly wrong. More illustrations of both characters are under the cut.
Marjorie Miller
Majorie is an ex-circus performer turned 1950s housewife. She's sickeningly sweet and determined to hold onto the life she's made for herself.

Oretta Adams
Oretta is the playwright whose work causes all the problems in the first place in Ballyhoo. She's a bit reserved but has a lot to say—things that come out in her writing.

These two grew up as best friends so here's a drawing of them hanging out:

I'm making illustration for some postcards. They will go with my dolls and have gossip addressed to the buyer about stuff happening in the little town of my characters.
This is the first one! I'm using as references illustrations by Kay Nielsen and Marjorie Miller because I love their vibe and they suit my stories.
The reference for the pose is this picture of Anthill and Stargazer :D

Weird Woods: Tales from the Haunted Forests of Britain (British Library Tales of the Weird), edited by John Miller,, British Library Publishing, 2020. Cover design by Mauricio Villamayor with illustration by Sandra Gómez, info: shop.bl.uk.
Another Tales of the Weird anthology from John Miller, who previously edited Tales of the Tattooed and will publish The Philosophy of Tattoos with the British Library in Autumn 2020. The tales in this title span all regions of the U.K. – from the obviously eerie rural areas of Devon and Yorkshire to more unexpected cosmopolitan locations like Stoke Newington, London. It resonates with a growing readership of nature and folk stories, and contains fascinating notes on the history of these stories and their writers. Woods play an important and recurring role in horror, fantasy, the gothic and the weird. They are places in which strange things happen, where you often can’t see where you are or what is around you. Supernatural creatures thrive in the thickets. Trees reach into underworlds of earth, myth and magic. Forests are full of ghosts. In this new collection, immerse yourself in the whispering voices between the branches in Wistman’s Wood on Dartmoor, witness an inexplicable death in Yorkshire’s Strid Wood and prepare yourself for an encounter with malignant pagan powers in the dark of the New Forest. This edition also includes notes on the real locations and folklore which inspired these deliciously sinister stories.
Contents: Introduction – John Miller The Whisper in the Wood – Anon Man-Size in Marble – Edith Nesbit The Striding Place – Gertrude Atherton The Man Who Went Too Far – E.F. Benson An Old Thorn – W.H. Hudson The White Lady – Elliot O’Donnell Ancient Lights – Algernon Blackwood The Name-Tree – Mary Webb The Tree – Walter de la Mare “He Made a Woman—” – Marjorie Bowen A Neighbour’s Landmark – M.R. James N – Arthur Machen Story Sources

Hello, I’m Lola ! 🌼 I was born in 1993, I’m french-italian, and I live in the south of France. I work as a freelance illustrator. I studied arts, litchacha, publishing, and did some film studies. I love medieval fantasy, fairytales and romance ! Expect a lot of art revolving around these themes.
I love Dragon Age, Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy, Legend of Zelda, Pillars of Eternity, Divinity, Stardew Valley, Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons, Skyrim, BG3, and Pokemon ! My favorite artists are George Barbier, Kay Nielsen, Maria Pascual, 💖Mary Blair💖, Ida Rentoul Outhwaite, Marjorie Miller and Eyvind Earle.
This is where you can find me :
🌼 twitter  🌼 instagram
🔞 twitter (no age in bio -> blocked ) + ocs side blog
I also have a print shop :
🌼 inprnt 
If you want something more personal, unless stated otherwise, I’m always open for commissions. You can find all infos regarding my pricing and TOU here.
If you wish to support me, I have a ko-fi !
I also have an art-only blog where I post all of my finished art ! Wips and doodles stay here on this blog tho. I reblog my own art a lot, so I suggest blacklisting “bump !” our “bump” if you wanna avoid these.
 I’m currently working on a visual project called Les contes du nécromant, if ya wanna check it out, here’s the tag :>
I'm not comfortable with people tagging my art as their ocs or their story, nor using it for their own project/work/game/campaign/etc, nor reposting it on an other site ( also applies to pinterest). I don’t allow my art to be used for NFT and other blockchain linked technologies.
I don’t recommend minors following me, as my drawings may contain imagery or themes not appropriate for children.
PS : I use she/they pronouns and don’t want to be referred to with feminine nouns such as woman, girl, miss, lady, etc etc, thanks ! :>
