Today the Colarusso’s went to The Butterfly Place armed with sketchbooks. They suggest you dress like a flower (bright colors et al.) in hopes that the butterflies might land on you. 10yo drew some flowers, and one landed on his hand #FTW! I sketched a butterfly. #butterflies#sketch
Sketch for Sargolis italian edition, the inscription reads "blessed by the gods, flower city, to the true life may you raise eternal" (italian written in fake cuneiform) #sketch#pencils#art#ttrpg
Trish’s character concept is partly inspired by Dean from The Iron Giant, and the TRS-80’s nickname of “Trash-80”. Like with Dean had happen to him, Trish probably had others mistake her art for junk 😭
Writing about this drawing led me to draw this too; a scene from the late 1970’s of Diana and Petunia attending one of Trish’s demonstrations when Diana mistook Trish’s art for junk.
Diana didn’t know that “junk” was meant to be art, and meant well but also had kind of a haughty attitude at the time that led to clashes in personality owing to how the Apple II had a much more glamorous image and was much more expensive than the TRS-80 and the PET.
Petunia was uncomfortable with Diana’s remark since the PET was often considered the most user-friendly of the 1977 Trinity (aside from the original PET’s infamous keyboard 🙃) and she always believed in being polite and professional.
