A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    Oh, and yes: Missy is AWESOME! I’ve seen these drawings in person and in production (as in not finished). I still have to double take any time I see one. They’re absolutely outstanding!

    I love Missy’s art work.
    Even though it’s not on the same level as her prismacolors, the Calm logo she did last year was pretty spiffy too 😛
