Mx.D.P

The next flag is Agender. Over the last year of art action research, exploring and defining what my gender means to me, I have been able to hone down and understand better the nuience of gender identity. The flag project is based on an online test, which was devised for an academic study but has been repurposed as a ‘thirst trap’ for clickbait… I retook the test and saw what I suspected

I had moved more into Agender and become embedded in the non-binary

Genderfluid had increased, and transgender reduced as I’ve moved towards Agender. What does this mean? Well, I have transitioned from my assigned at-birth gender; that’s happened. I’m firmly under the non-binary umbrella, and I’m embracing the definition of Agender.

Personally, for me, it means a more comfortable and happy existence; it’s still a bubble because, in the UK, no one officially recognises this, though there may be a way of getting Mx on your driving licence more of that later…

Development and growth were part of this Procreate brush set I made this week. It explored two of my most used brushes, the studio pen and the stipple fill, and I’ve now got a great ‘pen’ set

These are some of the shape bases and grains I’ve used to make these… they were all made by developing each one into the next.

I used them and a digital college to make a complex studio pen with an Agender grain.

And the final digital piece.
