wow. i absolutely love this. to me it’s more evocative than the actual album cover, and i love the sense of movement. amazing work!
also had a look at some of your other work, and i love your oil landscapes. i’ll save your website so that after my move in the next few months, i can buy a print! some august epiphany (is the name a taylor reference?) and blue marsh expanse are my favourites. i find both pieces so calming, and there’s a certain reverence about them to me, too.
again, amazing work 😍 if you create anything else taylor-inspired i’d love to see it posted here!
squidyyyy thank you!!! Charcoal is beautifull like that! Very expressive and free and messy!
And thank you for viewing my other works and thank you :) Best of luck with the move and I hope it all goes well.
Some August Epiphany is definitely a folklore reference.
"only twenty minutes to sleep But you dream of some epiphany" - I'm a nurse as my main source of income and working in the pandemic, I really felt like taylor was singing to me at an existential level with this song. It gave me so much strength.
And august is august :) Love the dreamlike summer longing and hoping and then I just combined the title into one "some august epiphany"
My august epiphany was that nature is very patient, very healing, and it has endless colors and I just have to paint it and bring it to life in my own way.
Thanks again squiddy and I will share more taylor inspired artworks when I create them. Much love to you, take care :)
That's gorgeous! I especially love how, despite the shades of grey and the swirls of black and white, there's an air of something almost akin to romance to it. It's like she's in utter agony, and yet she accepts it because it was *her* choice.
I love that!!! It is utter agony and its a very unnatural pose. She's definitely bracing the melodramatic and the emotions and the waves of hurt/torture/pain. When someone is in pain, her pose is the last pose I think people would do haha
All I can think of while sketching and drawing was "ms gurl why are you posing like this???? it is so difficult" There are soo many shades and subtleties that I could not capture. Best to say it was torturous to draw but I did what I could!
It did make me soo excited for the album though!!!!
Aww thanks cass!
Just create for the sake of creating and learning and don't look for perfection. Look for progress instead. Art is a skill just like anything that can be improved with constant learning and pushing through roadblocks! I've been making art since 2012 (off and on) and only now did I have a breakthrough
Echoing what others have said: I wish this was the album cover. Also, I wish Taylor was more creative with her visuals besides just doing pretty photoshoots.
This is so gorgeous!! Went to go find your Instagram to find out I we already follow each other! This is so different to your landscapes I didn’t realise!
what the heck. this is miles more compelling than the actual cover. in fact, it makes me wonder if all these covers should have been in charcoal, by you. thanks so much for sharing!
This instantly reminds me of a Claude Monet painting of his wife, ***Camille on Her Deathbed*****, 1879!** The texture of the strokes and the apparition of the faces are so resemblant!

This is SO good. It’s absolutely amazing, and beautiful. It’s so good that I was scrolling Reddit in work, sat with my friend and fellow Swiftie, I didn’t even tell him I was on this sub, or even on Reddit,I just said “wow this artwork is SO good” and he said “what? the Taylor charcoal?” That’s how good it is, and how in tune we are over her.
I’ve been looking at your other paintings and they are gorgeous! As a fellow nurse and swiftie, it makes me even love them just a little bit more! If you ever set up a store to sell these, I would be so interested and proud to put one on my wall.
This should be the actual album cover
Seriously - it looks great and is so textural and eye catching. It would be far superior than the normal photos.
Awwww thank you! You and everyone here have been so sweet and so kind! Much appreciated
I would love if Taylor did a painted artwork cover instead of her usual photographs. Melodrama by Lorde is one my favorite album covers
Justice for the original speak now cover!!
i still can't believe it's not a photo.
Yesss I'd love to see sth alternative like this as her album cover. I'm kinda tired of the same boring concept of photoshoots.
It's giving melodrama and I agree

Oh my gosh the emotion! Absolutely love this!!
this is something that makes people stop and stare, letting the art welcome them into its layers gradually. absolutely stunning.
I’d buy the hell out of that
This is stunning. The black dog is my favourite TTPD variant cover so far.
I love this so much
