@zombiebasss Hey hey. I’m Sappho!
I mostly draw fan art and illustrations but I also like to dabble in original characters and some manga.
I’ll be glad to meet some new art mutual!
"Rosy-fingered Selene after sunset, surpassing all the stars...her light spreads alike over the salt sea & the flowery fields."-Sappho

Here's some commissions from a while back! It's harlotisadrag (IG) and @sapphoria666 ! Fun fact: Harlot is Sapphoria's drag mom! Can you see the family resemblance?
ตอนนู้นเคยพูดถึง Sappho เพิ่งรู้ว่า Marie Laurencin ก็เคยวาดภาพประกอบบทกวีของ Sappho ด้วยล่ะ!
โลรองซังเป็นศิลปินหญิงและ lgbt ในยุค cubism (ยุคเดียวกับปิกาสโซ) ปกติเรามักจะเห็นภาพหญิงสาวในสายตาของผู้ชาย ภาพเขียนของโลรองซังเนี่ยเห็นกี่ทีก็รู้สึกว่ามีเสน่ห์เนอะ https://t.co/eV01ITN44g
Sappho + gf, Mori Ranmaru, Uesugi Kenshin, and Alexander + Bagoas
But I’m not one of those with a resentful temperament:
I have a quiet heart.

My contribution, "The Death of Mike" by Me. Inspired by "The Death of Sappho" by Miguel Carbonell.
His Deacon is one of his most finished works & presents his view of ideal male beauty, just as his Sappho indicates a female equivalent. A Deacon (1863), Sappho & Erinna (1864), Poetry (1864) & Girl at a Fountain (1865)
Throughout his work there is a sensuality that borders on decadence - Ezekiel & the Angel is an example of that. The Mother of Moses (1860), Sappho (1862) & Ezekiel & the Angel (1861) & the Painter’s Pleasaunce (1861)
Pride Month Day 6 (sorry I'm late!), today I drew the Poet Queen of the Isle of Lesbos, herself, Sappho! She was renown throughout the ancient world for her beautiful poetry & her love for other women. She is partly responsible for the modern term "Lesbian" (after her island).
in love with this moth sapphos that @Idolomantises created so i had had had to sketch them between commissions!!
Just friends being gals and totally not attracted to each other #sapphoandherfriend

5) For as long as I've been rping, I've loved telling stories. No surprise that I'm a career writer, right? I create OCs to tell stories that I couldn't tell with others. (Characters in order: Sapphois (wow), Paige (GW2), Nikatell (EQ2), Connlain (GW2) )
