Rickey: (asking about her latest song) Do you think Mavis Staples… (loses train of thought) Brian: Probably sometimes, but I don't think that's how she got her name.

I've decided, in 2026, I'm describing myself and everything I do as "amazing." Like "check out this amazing new illustration from renowned artist Rickey Does It." lol. I see people do this kind of thing all the time... Call themselves/their work amazing. Talk about themselves in the third 1/2

So Brian is having his friend make him an octopus themed venetian carnivale outfit, so i decided to take a stab at the design. Never did anything like this before, or even knew what a venetian carnivale dress looks like, but i think for a first draft, it looks pretty...... AMAZING! lol
