Gem Tutorial by art_side_of_life

Book and magazine illustration was historically an environment very populated by women in times in which they weren’t allowed the same room for artistic education, exposure and professional careers as cis men artists. Even though the Golden Age of illustration brings usually the names of the “fathers” of the artform, many women developed artistic styles that added new significance to storytelling. Still, it’s important to note that the environment was still a place of great privilege and only few women (especially white women with enough means) were able to find sustainable work in the industry in the XIX and early XX century. Some of the women showcased here became historically relevant many years after they passed, having awards named after them, becoming firsts to enter artistic halls of fame, creating networks for employment that outlived them, and being included in “gay-themed history tours” that recognized their lives, among many other legacies.

These are the few artists showcased here: Eleanor Vere Boyle (1825-1916), Josephine Pollard (1834-1892), Kate Greenaway (1846-1901), Alice Bolingbroke Woodward (1862 — 1951), Jessie Willcox Smith (1863 – 1935), Isobel Lilian Gloag (1865–1917), Helen Stratton (1867-1961), Elizabeth Shippen Green (1871 – 1954), Violet Oakley (1874 – 1961), Anne Anderson (1874 — 1952), Jessie M. King (1875—1949), Elenore Plaisted Abbott (1875–1935), Ruth Mary Hallock (1876-1945), Florence Susan Harrison (1877-1955), Mabel Lucie Attwell (1879-1964), Rie Cramer (1887-1977), Margaret Tarrant (1888-1959), Ida Rentoul Outhwaite (1888—1960), Dorothy P. Lathrop (1891—1980), Cecile Walton (1891—1956), Margaret Tempest (1892-1982), Wanda Gág (1893-1946), Jennie Harbour (1893-1959), Virginia Frances Sterrett (1900—1931), Adrienne Segur (1901-1981), Janet Grahame Johnstone (1928 – 1979) and Anne Grahame Johnstone (1928 – 1998), Trina Schart Hyman (1939-2004) and Kinuko Y. Craft (1940). 

EDIT:

It has come to my attention that this post has been reblogged by some terf blogs (I’ve already blocked). Make no mistake, I don’t welcome terfs on my posts (or my blog, for that matter).

In my intention to share some of the artists I was studying during March 8th, I didn’t realize that people could take my inclusion of these often forgotten artists as an exclusion of others. The fact that trans illustrators and visual artists in history haven’t been as acknowledged as cis artists doesn’t mean they weren’t there, it’s a reflection of how systematic gender oppression acts on history and what it upholds.

It was my mistake to not see that this selection could imply exclusion, and even if not my intention, it’s not a possibility I’m willing to let people entertain. Therefore, I added now some trans visual artists and illustrators who were contemporary to the ones I included prior: Lili Elbe (1882-1931), Ovartaci (1894 – 1985), Anton Prinner (1902-1983), Michel Marie Poulain (1906-1991), Jeffrey Catherine Jones (1944-2011), El Kazovsky (1948-2008).

I also want to include a couple of resources on current trans inclusive platforms that house artists through history as well as current illustrators that you can check out right now:

Queer Art History: curated currently by Baylee Woodley (she/her/hers or they/them/theirs), this site includes a category on Transgender & Gender Non-Conforming art, which goes through different historical periods and mediums.

Women Who Draw: this directory and platform is trans-inclusive, it also houses trans and gender non-conforming illustrators currently working.

If you want to include more artists, you’re welcome to do so!

"Être dans une paranoïa est comme l'obscurité, avec beaucoup de voix ennuyeuses qui vous parlent et vous ne savez pas quoi faire, mais écouter ta voix me guide sur un chemin pour aller là-bas et comprendre les choses, voir ce chemin vous fait revenir à la vie , courez et sachez que vous pouvez sortir." . . . . #chelsychaconocwarrenreddington #illustration #artistoninstagram #tattoo #visdev #visualdevelopment #characterdesign #storytelling #cartoon #fantasy #flowers #minimalism #art #illustrator #animation #ink #cartoon #childrenillustration #manga #nakamuraasumiko #asumikonakamura #contrast #design #graphicdesign #arttimelapse #timelapse #arttutorial https://www.instagram.com/p/BrY8UDIhgg4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j9cu0sns518d

Luke, kicking down Din's office door: "LOOK AT THIS VIDEO OF A TOOKA RIDING ON THE BACK OF A BANTHA! HES GOT A HAT ON AND- oh"

Bo-Katan, developing a migrane: "Dear council of important intergalactic dignitaries who are essential for the survival and growth of Mandalore, may I introduce you to our Jedi Master and Royal Consort, Luke Skywalker-Djarin of Clan Mudhorn. Who-"

Din, who was fully planning to leave but Bo looks like she'd kill him is he did, activates his diplomacy brain; coming up with a genius and professional idea: "Let's put it up on the central holoscreen and all watch it 😀"

Bo, watching a group of dignitaries being forced to watch a 10minute video of a tooka: ....this is why Mandolorians and Jedi are almost extinct...

This is how it should have been 😭💔

I’m sure a ton of people already know how to do this, but I only learned recently, so I wanted to share one of my favorite thumbnailing tricks! Color matching is SUPER helpful to quickly map out potential color schemes :D

[EDIT] this is in Adobe Photoshop, sorry for forgetting to mention that!
