Daily Creativity: Fat Little Mermaid

Fat Little Mermaid - Daily CreativityDaily Creativity: Fat Little Mermaid

Last night I drew a common character a bit more fitting to my personal body type. I drew a Fat Little Mermaid, and I think she looks cute, and warm. I didn’t take too many liberties other than her size, though I think in the future I might make her more in my own style. I’ve thought a while about redrawing popular characters to make them chubby, I’ve seen it done before and it always looks cute to me. I painted this with ArtRage on my iPad. I wasn’t able to upload it until after class today.

Daily Creativity: Gaby is my hero, women role models are cool

Gaby-is-my-hero-smIn honor of International Women’s Day I thought I’d use a woman role model as my muse. Instead of picking a woman from history I chose a currant role model. Gabourey Sidibe is a woman of strong character and confidence, she doesn’t take any guff from anyone, and has sass for days. If ever I feel like I can’t take the negativity around me I can think about Gaby and think, what would she do? Pastel settings in ArtRage on iPad. 3/8/2015

Daily Creativity: Fat is not a 4 letter word

Fatisnota4letterwordIf you’ve followed my work you will know I am all about body positivity, and loving your body. Fat acceptance is part of that. Moving away from the word fat being used as a slur and accepting it as it is, a descriptor. Fat is no different than tall or short, it just describes a body’s shape. It is something we all have, we all have fat. It’s not something to be feared or to run from. It’s just a word. You can’t tell anything from fat either. You can’t tell if a person is healthy or unhealthy, you can’t tell what they eat or don’t eat, what activity they do or don’t do. It’s just a word, it’s a word I have taken back. A word I wear like a badge. Much like the word geek, it used to be considered an insult, I don’t find it insulting anymore, I’m proud to be a geek. Call me a geek all you want and I will agree. Call me fat and I will agree too, you won’t find tears in my eyes but rather a nod of approval. It’s just a word, it, and those that use it, have no power over me. “You Have no Power Over Me!” – Sara from Labyrinth. I made this using the Sketch Club app on iPad. 3/7/2015 http://wp.me/p1qyRu-Yb
