Happy 62nd bday Alison Bechdel🤘🏽 I drew this coloring book page of @alisonbechdel , who is the writer and cartoonist who the Bechdel Test (or Rule) is named after! 🔬 This rule is a measure of the representation of women in fiction, a simple test which names the following three criteria: (1) The work has to have at least two women in it, who (2) talk to each other, about (3) something besides a man. (4) The requirement that the two women be named is sometimes added. The test was popularized in Alison Bechdel's comic: #DykesToWatchOutFor 🕵🏽‍♂️👯‍♀️👀 #AlisonBechdel #OberlinCollege #BardCollegeAtSimonsRock #TheBechdelTest #AreYouMyMother #TheEssentialDykesToWatchOutFor #FunHome #MacArthurGeniusAward #Tragicomic #LinesOfTransmissionComicsAndAutobiography #FunHomeTheMusical #PièceDeRésistance #PostcardsFromTheEdge #ThingsFallApart #EisnerAward #TheSecretToSuperhumanStrength #FemaleComicsCreators #takeOnMe #AhHa #butch #lesbiansOfTiktok https://www.instagram.com/p/CiVj5RlPQSX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy birthday to the wonderful Shirley MacLaine who is 86 today! The Apartment is one of my all-time favorite films. She's brilliant in that. #shirleymaclaine #postcardsfromtheedge #theapartment #oldhollywood #happybirthday #alejandromogolloart https://www.instagram.com/p/B_YF35xn-AD/?igshid=18qt4m48w4yb9

My artwork of Pears sold right away and so did my daughter’s abstract to the right. This is from #postcardsfromtheedge fundraiser in New York. (at New York City, N.Y.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYj2N6gvt2P/?utm_medium=tumblr

The amount of times I've seen this poster and thought it was another Thelma and Louise but nope. Apparently Carrie Fisher wrote this and used her life in a fictional way. A story of a young female star recovering from addiction, she's forced back to her mother; a woman whose well known star. The movie flies by pretty quick. Some of the references used throughout the movie did fly over my head, I feel like I'm a little too young to understand those. The camera angles are certainly interesting, I think it helps that the camera is forced into confined spaces due to the location used. It's basically a movie with a movie and I like these kinda movies especially if there done right. Also, it was very fun playing spot the actor. I recognised a lot while a few had their names on the tip of my tongue. I like how they show the dysfunction between mother/daughter, regardless of being famous or not, a lot of mother/daughters would be able to relate to that. It's nice that the film ends on a happy note after all that because it would've been a kicker of an ending if they let Suzanna die. #postcardsfromtheedge https://www.instagram.com/p/CW5ZfaJvGwG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Now that it’s sold, I feel ok revealing my postcard from this year’s Postcards From The Edge. Thank you to everyone who made a purchase and supported the continuing efforts of @visual_aids . There are still a number of really fantastic postcards available (until the 15th)—a great way to collect art for not a relative ton of money while knowing your money will be used to help others. 🖤🖤 𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕚𝕥𝕝𝕖𝕕 (𝕧𝕒𝕝𝕖𝕕𝕚𝕔𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟), 2020 Ink on paper ••• #art #drawing #postcardsfromtheedge #postcardsfromtheedge2021 #pfte2021 #visualaids (at Visual AIDS) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ8xA3Xl8tE/?igshid=64k7fc7rw4hm
