my take 

This has Been... Ooh! Not Even a week! But what an Eventful week it has been, Hasn't it! I cannot Believe my Own Existence, honestly! But I feel as Though I must say a Few things! Between you, and me, and you, and me! A Conversation that I will sit in a Chair Backwards for, very Cool-like!-

I must have Said this so many time, The Reception has Been just Phenomenal! Stupendous! Everyone has been so Kind and the Support is immense! This is like a Dream to be able to Create my own Work that makes myself and Others so happy and get to Collaborate with other artists!

But it is also very Unforeseen and very Stressful, which has been taking Its Toll on my Health and I am Unable to Handle this Change at this moment. I know this sudden Boost was Unpredictable! I say and Say again, 'This Home! What do you See in this home?' All this to say I am going on a Very Small Hiatus until I am Well Enough again to return here and Meet everyone Properly! Working on Welcome Home, too, is one of my Priorities and so I will be Doing this while I am Away Also! But there are a Few items I wanted to Leave before I took this Small break! (A few Weeks, I'll be Alright, wahaha!)

I know Welcome Home has become a Massive community, although I Have not seen it I have a Feeling it is all Over. I Hope we all Remember to be Kind to one Another and Look out for Each other even though we Are just beginning to Come together. I also wanted to note, based on a Few Messages I received, regarding Welcome Home's lore and Mystery. Please do not Repost old artwork that you have Found on this blog prior to January 2021. I believe Individuals are Assuming it Plays into this 'Game' somehow, But I am very Sorry to tell you that it was Very Early conceptual artwork for When I first began Reworking Welcome Home and plays no part in its Current Story! I don't Really want to Delete this work because It holds a place On This Blog as the date I returned to Working on Welcome Home! It is sentimental, but I feel as though Reposting it out of its Original Home brings Unnecessary confusion! (Had I known I would be seen by So Many, but it was so Unprecedented! The Next Update will reflect this!) Additionally, please Do Not associate any real life experiences or tragedies with Welcome Home. Welcome Home is purely a work of my own fiction and does Not Correlate with any real life incidents! It would be insensitive to those Who have Experienced these tragedies first hand and others Involved. (I Will also Place this on the Next Update!)

Lastly, I will not be Answering Any speculative questions about Any of the Characters in any way or the story itself. I hope you will Discover the Answers to your questions as the Story Expands and you get to Explore deeper. I know there must be an Eagerness to Uncover everything and to know Everyone in Home much more intimately, but to give so many Details so quickly will hurt the story, I feel. I am Happy everyone is so excited to Dive in, but Please be patient to find out more.

I hope Folks will Be kind to these requests, but I understand if it is not so. It is so large that Everything is Completely out of my Hands... I don't think I understand how to Handle these things yet. However, I do know I need to Take care of myself and My Art, Because I would not be here right now without Welcome Home. I hope Everyone will like my Next Update... I really Want to make Something I am proud of and I Now have so many Folks to do that with! Thank you so much, Everyone, and I am so sorry about the small hiatus. But Uh... Hm... One last thought from me for Awhile! (I Like making those!) My Big Rust Bucket Fish was so beloved! My Professor stared at her with so much Awe, It made me so Happy! The Dive home Shook her little fin off, though! But I'll just Glue it back on! Anywho! For any Inquiries on Anything, Please look to my Pinned Post on this Blog! I will only be Available through Discord! Thank you all for your Support!

Ooh, You know, I never got a chance to reveal my Last Sculpture before this Course ended! She was a 4 Foot Tall Birthday Cake! (Not Real, of course!)

Unfortunately, She was damaged in her Exhibition, so she Cannot stay with us- Still! She was very proud, and Everyone fawned over her! She can be Reborn again, They always can be!

Punk 101: Lace Code

Lace Code is one of my favorite things, and so it happens to be the Punk 101 post that I’ve worked on the most. I’m sorry (I know I said at some point band shirts were up next 😬)

*Long Post - if you see anything thats wrong or missing, please feel free to leave a note or message me*

To start, it is important to talk about where Lace Code came from, and where it is now. Using lace colors on your boots (doc martins specifically) started with London Skinheads in the 70’s. Their white and red laces were typically symbols of white supremacy, and in some groups those laces had to be earned.

I’ll eventually do another post on Skinheads, but for now all you need to know is that the Skinhead subculture is historically known for being racist and violent. I always feel the need to point something out when talking about Skinheads: NOT EVERY BALD OR SHAVEN PUNK IS A SKINHEAD!

Later on in the 80’s, Lace Code became a popular way for many Punk subculture to communicate things such as their stance on racism and their sexuality. Now, in many areas, Lace Code is dead, but not everywhere!

Lace Code applies to ladder laced black combat boots (typically people wear docs). Each color represents something different, and this can vary by area, so it is important to check your local scene

How to ladder lace:

Traditional ladder laces are shown on the left, and quick release ladder laces are shown on the right. And here is a site that goes step by step

What do The Colors Mean?

(Colors mean different things in different places. These are the most common meanings and the ones I personally know - check your local scene to ensure its not different for your area)

Orange: Anti-Racist // Anti-ICE // No Meaning

Yellow: Anti-Racist

Green: Environmentalist // Peace // No Meaning

Blue: Killed a Cop

Purple: Queer // Gay

Pink: Feminist // Queer // Gay

Black: No Meaning

Patterned: No Meaning

Red: Nazi // Neo-Nazi // Anarchist

White: White Supremacy // Nazi // Neo-Nazi

Note: no one can stop you from wearing whatever you want, but in some areas you should be mindful because there are still people who follow Lace Code, and if youre seen with red or white ladder laces, you might be in for it

2nd Note: Its always advised that you dont wear ladder laces when traveling if you are unfamiliar with the Lace Code of the area you are traveling to for safety purposes

This is so me

maybe it's just because I'm so desensitized to the former (it still sucks, don't do it) but there's something about the latter that really fucks me up
