Madame K, after John Singer Sargent's Madame X
details, progress, and notes below
Sargent is one of my main art inspirations. I've always wanted to do a master study of his iconic portrait, but decided to add a Star Wars spin to it ✨
I love painting Kleya and thought she would fit with this portrait! her dress by Michael Wilkinson is so elegant and iconic. I think the description of the original painting also fits her well: "Sargent shows a woman posing in a black satin dress with jeweled straps, a dress that reveals and hides at the same time."
I thought it was an interesting choice that Kleya's red, "disguise" outfit stands out more than her gallery one, while Luthen's outfits are the opposite. almost like she's hiding in plain sight.
I kept the ring as part of my Kleya/Luthen AU.

thinking about kieran again... particularly about how i feel like he struggles with a weak sense of self and how him identifying so heavily with ogrepon, (or at least the version of ogrepon he originally knew,) probably helped him stabilize how he saw himself, only to have something he considered so core to his identity essentially ripped away from him. not only that, it was by someone he seemingly wanted to trust and open up to, (which i doubt he does very often.)
i definitely think that the way he's handling things is far from healthy, but i can get why he'd have such an intense reaction to losing something that was so important to him and basically being betrayed by someone he wanted to consider a friend.

I will say one of the funniest things ever is that I was figuring Callum to be less devotional than canon has actually made him in arc 2, purely because I always figured that if Rayla kept pulling her self sacrificial bullshit (see numerous instances in s4) Callum would eventually be like "I can't do/love you like this anymore" and leave out of self preservation, and then 4x09's "I know" came along and said no, he would never actually leave her over this, and that's fucking insane to me but I love that for him

insomnia's proved itself to be a funny side effect to having the ability to sleep in a real bed again every night ------- a fact her mind and body don't seem to want to acknowledge for more than a few hours at a time. ( this is what she gets for forcing herself into being a light sleeper over the last few years; teaching herself to sleep with one eye and one ear open just in case. )
so the irony of her situation isn't lost on her; especially when she checks the time on the clock on her beside table and is greeted with the right angle that is 3AM.
she's already done her usual indoor course, wandering from room to room and back again; but now that there's a proper wall with all those nightmares - made - real well out of sight on the other side of it, a walk out in the cool air might serve her better than another lap around her place.
what she doesn't expect to find is company when she opts to walk down to the lake-- a still new but already familiar figure standing by the shore. "and here i thought i was the only wandering night owl in town," she makes a point to announce herself even though she's still several footsteps away --- last thing she wants to do is surprise him by popping up beside him on the shore with no warning.
@innerwar / rick ; ❛ can’t sleep? ❜
"yeah. gave up trying." she sighs while she tugs on the cuffs of her shirt until they cover her hands up to her fingertips. "i hear it's wildly overrated anyway. so -- same for you?"

Scrimbly Jacqueline 19/20: I gave her a cloak. bitches love cloaks! (i'm bitches)
I also drew her staff! She has one, too :)
This nearly became Sorceress-Warlock Jacqueline from THIS AU. Didn't feel like drawing that fit tho so it's just regular canon Jacqueline, lol. (but picturing the scars and the eye patch she doesn't actually need but wears for the aesthetic was a FUN mental image at the beginning of the week! then the horrors persisted and I went WHO HAS THE SPOONS. NOT ME)
Drawing the whooshy cloak was fun. Colouring it was even MORE fun. I was going CRAZY last night trying to find a post I made where I described Jacqueline's staff?? I COULDN'T FUCKING FIND IT AND I S2G I READ IT THE OTHER DAY. LIKE EARLIER THIS WEEK. So hopefully my visual memory served me WELL and I don't find the post and go FUCKING EH at a later date, lol.
this scrimbly was very much a scrimbly lol. I think it took me like 10 minutes to doodle. I'm having a LOW ENERGY WEEK. Feelin burnt out af and dreading the weekend! Woo! Almost DIDN'T scrimbly! Thinking this week's little down spin is gonna push back Frostmas crossposting which is SUPER RUDE bc like. THE AESTHETIC. UPDATING ON THE UNLUCKY DAY. BOO!
RIGHT. DANI RANTS ASIDE, WANT SOME CS LORE/FACTS? BC I GOT SOME! WOO:
All four Frosts would pass the warlock test--the question is, do they fully embrace it? Fino does. Fiera does but like, second to the summer sprite training. Jack learns what's useful/what he wants/needs to. Jacqueline was FINE not warlocking, she's good with the snow, BUT Jack keeps nagging her to at LEAST take the test and when she passes it he's like c'mon. c'mon. warlock training. you know you want tooo I could teach youuuuu
She holds off for a VERY long time then gets schemey brain a couple of centuries down the line and goes for it. It's spoilery and I do want to keep this one close to my chest, BUT:
Essentially she learns that she has something someone needs/wants back and she can only do that by getting into the Warlock training! She uses this to try and bring two estranged people closer and when it doesn't go well she hits Jack up after hours and is like "so my plan is going. hmm. bad. let's start warlock training?" and Jack's like YEAH LET'S FUCKING GOOOO bc A) he told her so. B) he;s been wanting to get her started with the warlock biz for YEARS! AND out of ALL THE TEACHERS SHE'S COMING TO HIM (well. unofficially) and C) he is also enjoying the tea from her little scheme and about the two people in question, lol.
Anyway, enjoy the scrimble! Next week is some prohibition fun ft. Winter, I THINK. I'll have to check my notes 🤔🤔🤔
(and yes the heart clasp and pink in the staff are bc Dite)

Glancing at the Sherlock and co fandom treatment of Mariana and it's all "ugh she and John better not end up together I want my johnlock!" or "I'm shipping Mariana and John out of spite of the johnlockers!"
And it's just. Guys. Have we considered the fact they're friends? That Mariana is making fun of John, checking he's ok, having to sleep in the same room as him (because of sherlock's sensory issues and needing to sleep by himself) platonically? Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they'd be lovely together, I'm sure this adaptation of John and Sherlock would be lovely together
It's just that we've got a rare case of a Sherlock adaptation not reducing the female characters down to their sexuality or relationship with men, and we've immediately shoved it right back into that
