Angel of Death

Does Erik put that on his business card? “Erik, Angel of Death?” That would end up being one large business card. “Erik, Phantom of the Opera, Angel of Death, the Trapdoor Lover, Angel of Music, composer, musician, architect, artist, assassin, thief, extortionist, illusionist, ventriloquist, professional butt face, and bona-fide cat lover.”

My spiel about this piece can be found in the piece’s description on Deviantart. Needless to say, it consists of way too many paragraphs that serve no purpose other than to showcase that I have an inordinate love for this story and possibly too much free time on my hands at the moment.

i saw this earlier and LOVED IT but then the person posted the artist’s motivation/inspiration and it filled me with such intense rage.

from their diviantart, emphasis mine:

I’ve seen numerous fanarts of Velma, depicting her as some über curvy and sexy and geeky fantasy material… and for some reason, I wanted to draw the opposite - a tubby Velma, an out of shape Velma, a having-finished-with-the-mystery-squad-letting-herself-go Velma… I mean, that happens, right? People get done with what they think are their glory days and kind of just… exist instead of living.

So here we have Velma that’s been stood up on a date. I picture this being her first date with that particular guy, but not the first time she’s been abandoned like that.

Instead of distress, I wanted to show her as being used to this sort of thing by now - she’s gotten into a habit of bringing a book along with her, even. I would say she never held out much hope for succeeding with the date tonight, but, nevertheless, tried to make herself look nice. She’s not grieving much, as her outlook on the whole situation is rather removed and philosophical after so many failures.

I wonder why she keeps trying?

when i saw this, i was like “oh man! this is awesome! look at velma looking a-may-zing in that great dress, drinking a glass of wine, reading a book. looks like paradise!”

but the artist made this thinking “velma lets her self go, gets fat, and then gets stood up on dates. and she is so used to being treated like garbage, that she just assumes it will happen, and brings a book” because that’s totally what happens, right? you get fat and nobody wants to hang out with you or date you or be seen with you??

this artist is a fucking dumb-ass.

“I’ve seen numerous fanarts of Velma, depicting her as some über curvy and sexy and geeky fantasy material… and for some reason, I wanted to draw the opposite.” well BUMMER DUDE because that is actually exactly what you did.

I wonder if the artist has any idea what they’ve created here - which is actually a pretty apt commentary in that, hey, here’s this woman who a lot of people think is totally awesome, who is completely attractive, who seems pretty self-sufficient and has had a lot of interesting things going on in her life - but, oh, man, she’s “used to” being stood up so she just takes it like it’s her due and doesn’t ever question why it’s supposed to be her fault. This artist has created a portrait of so many fat people that I know who are AWESOME and who genuinely believe that there is something wrong with them morally and socially because they’ve been told time and again that being fat is some kind of mortal sin.

And, yeah, we get all up in arms about “confidence is sexy” because, hey, it’s a fucking cliche. But there really are self-fulfilling prophecies; we learn not to see people flirt with us because we don’t believe anyone could possibly flirt with us. We hate our own bodies because, hey, we’re supposed to, right?

And meanwhile, to some objective observer, this fat woman in this picture is just hanging out, looking fly, reading a book and drinking some wine. 

One of the most effective tools of oppression is to make the oppressed believe it is their fault, that they deserve it. And fat people are really fucking good at hating ourselves. 

tl;dr: love the picture, think the artist is probs a fat-hating douche who has helped perpetuate the loathing so many fat people feel for themselves. Good times.

This is probably the prettiest Velma I’ve ever seen. Why’d the artist have to add that shitty narrative?

This is maybe one of the most interesting things I’ve seen come across my dash lately.  I’m fascinated by the idea that an artist could create a piece like this with such a sad, horrible little story in mind.  And yet when I (and clearly many others) look at this picture without knowing that narrative, we don’t see it as being sad at all.  We see a beautiful woman having what appears to be a very pleasant evening.  She’s gorgeous and comfortable, and seems to be enjoying an activity that makes her happy, reading with a glass of wine.  Interpretation is everything.  And this really does drive home the point that the creator’s intent doesn’t mean anything in the end.  

Reblogging for commentary. I was really disturbed by the story the artist told to go with this piece the first time I saw it on my dash. I find the Velma in this picture delightful and I want to sit down with her (when she’s not reading, can’t interrupt!) and have a glass of wine and talk and laugh and maybe even flirt. She’s so great, and I hate that this is seen as “letting herself go” and just… ugh. :( Beautiful art, horrible backstory. I’m going to reject the artist’s canon and substitute my own. This Velma is wonderful and deserves all the love and happiness. 

I’m… really confused. If the artist wants to make Velma look unattractive he’s not doing it right. The way her shoulder is peeking out, the way her dress fits so nice and shows off her curves, and the way her adorable feet are perched up like that… dayum I would date her in a heartbeat.
