Noéline la Bouche hosts Uncaged Cabaret!

Noeline la Bouche hosting Uncaged Cabaret by Suzanne Forbes March 25 2022My dear friend and eternal muse Noéline la Bouche is starting to do some event hosting!

I was so excited to see them as the host of last night’s Uncaged Cabaret online, which was fantasy themed. I loved the mystic creature storyline she created. And their headpiece from her Noéline’s Accessories line is so beautiful. So I made this color ink drawing! I will be giving it to them as a birthday present as her birthday just passed!

If you’re interested in disabled performer life and building the emotional intelligence to cope with radical physical challenge, I highly recommend reading Noéline’s posts.

And of course paying her some money because we don’t take the labor of Black femmes for free!

Many other Noeline drawings in my Noéline Muse Album on flickr.

I am so grateful to my Patreon Patrons, whose monthly financial support makes it possible for me to continue making art and documenting Berlin performers as a vaccinated but Covid-vulnerable disabled person.

We need them so much.

I finally caught some sessions of Life Drawing Rubyyy Jones this winter, including January’s “Historic Queer Artists” and February’s “Freyja” session. You know once I heard there would be cats modelling, well!

Rubyyy and their partner Prinx Lydia are creators of a whole Patreon community for life drawing, and more, including movement classes and act creation instruction.

It was before WW3 finally broke the surface, when I was most concerned about Omicron BA2, what’s happening in Kabul, ongoing suffering in Syria, and the famine in the Horn of Africa. A month ago seems like a dream now, after the thousand-year February of the tank advances.

I’m a goddam wreck. I got nothin. I know art helps me, so I’m sharing art, and I hope like heck it helps you. I love you.
