ARTWORK
Self Portrait of a Butch artist statement: This painting is called “Self Portrait of a Butch” and it’s about my personal exploration of my butch identity and how I keep discovering new things about it every day. I specifically painted myself getting a tattoo of a quote from The Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg because hir book was one of the biggest influences on my journey to discovering I’m butch and because tattoos are incredibly gender affirming for me.
