Description from maker

Fae <3 (self-given title)

This lil fairy, or some version of them, is something represented in my art a lot and it feels like my gender expression.. they are soft and tender and existing in their own little world. The fairy is a common symbol in representing queerness, reclaimed from its use as a derogatory term. I started using the fairy shortly after using insects and other flying creatures in my art, and I’m inspired by how fairies cross the worlds of reality and imagination.
