dorian only thinks his portrait is beautiful because he sees it as a depiction of his fleeting youth and identity, but the truth is the portrait is actually a reflection of basil, the artist, who put too much of himself in it. it’s not dorian who is beautiful, but rather basil’s pure love for him, which in turn is a reflection of basil’s soul and true nature. by loving dorian, and embracing his love through art without shame, basil has created the most precious thing, even if it is fleeting. much like romance, all art is quite useless, but it touches the human spirit nonetheless, and that’s important

Whybourne & Griffin Custom POP figures (Based on the series by Jordan L Hawk): Percival Whybourne, Griffin Flaherty, Dr. Christine Putnam and Iskander Barnett
A few notes: - Whybourne’s Wild Hair is my favorite thing. - That is a tiny fireball in his hand (for obvious reasons) - I chose to put Christine in her “field” outfit rather than a dress because I feel like it fits her personality better - I didn’t have a rifle for Christine, sadly, but I did manage to find a pistol. - I desperately want to make Persephone and Maggie <3
