Will It Be Heartbreak Or Death?

Will it be heartbreak or death?

I agree ☝️

How the Daisy-coming-to-tea scene should’ve gone

I’m back with more Basil and Dorian doodles! I managed to complete a full page of doodles in one night which I haven’t done in a while. Felt good lol. It was super late when I was drawing all of these so 🫢

Okay PLEASE don’t look too close at Lord Henry.. I haven’t drawn him in a very long time and I’m still trying to develop a look for him.

But anyway- so I like to imagine that Lord Henry takes on the role of Cupid between Basil and Dorian, doing anything in his power to get these two together. They like each other and they try to show it, but the other doesn’t pick up on anything, so Harry stepped in to help. (They’re so oblivious it pisses Harry off). He leaves them alone in rooms, he helps one or the other build up enough courage to ask the other out, the whole nine yards. In result, I imagine Basil and Dorian tell him EVERYTHING that happens, and sometimes they get a little too personal 😶 but it’s because they’re excited and have no filter when they’re excited (I included a little funny at the end)

Harry is doing the lord’s work for these two I guess🤷‍♀️

The urge to gatekeep The picture of Dorian Gray from straight people.

Portraits of famous 18th and 19th-century Gothic fiction writers.

Horace Walpole (1717 - 1797) // Ann Radcliffe (1764 - 1823) // Matthew Gregory Lewis (1775 - 1818) // Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797 - 1851) // Edgar Allan Poe (1809 - 1849) // Anne (1820 - 1849), Emily (1818 - 1848), and Charlotte Brontë (1816 - 1855) // Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) // Bram Stoker (1847 - 1912)

Bro. If Edgar Allan Poe wrote The Picture of Dorian Gray 😩. I’m not sure if he’d do it better but…TPoDG is classified as gothic literature and in seeing the gothic sense of that novel versus the gothic sense of Poe’s work, I feel like Poe would put his own twist on it. It’d just be different. The time eras in which both Poe and Wilde wrote were different and definitely influenced their gothic literature as a whole. But as someone who loves Poe just as much as they love Wilde ✋, it would be so cool to see a Poe-ified TPoDG.

I might want to draw something based on all of this 😶

Someone please go back in time and give this idea to Poe he'd do it so much better
