In an effort to build a space for queer people like myself, every Tuesday I’ll be posting opinion pieces, listicals, reviews, and more focused on the LGBT community (and occasionally about the Latinx/WOC community since I am Latinx.) Welcome to Queerly Not Straight! And for the month of June we’ll be posting an EXTRA dose of LGBTQ+ goodness on Thursdays!
Spirals are the best. Whether it be on Twitter, Tumblr, or Reddit, a good spiral leads you down a road of discovery that you never even knew you needed in your life. One of my most recent spirals involves all the lovely artists and art in this post just in time for Pride Month!
My challenge for you is to go through this list of talented AF LGBTQ+ artists and not fall in love with their work. So, go ahead and jump in, follow, like, and support the creative minds making art that broaden horizons, challenge convention, and show how brilliant we and worthwhile we as part of the queer community!
