Spock’s Whale Tank Undies

hello star trek

This is a sorta expansion on an old drawing i did of the Orion woman from TOS. It’s kind of hard for me to explain. Human women aren’t the only aliens who dream about exploring space, so it makes me sad when some Star Trek aliens like Orions are used to appeal to the male writer’s fantasies. I was really moved watching Lower Decks and learning about Tendi’s feelings about being an Orion in Starfleet, considering i’d drawn an Orion dreaming of space long before I’d watched the show. Seems like things are changing!!!

ID: An illustration of an Orion woman floating through an orange and pink setting with beams of blue, green, and purple streaming from an illuminated disco ball. Inside the disco ball is the shadow of the USS Enterprise. The woman has short black hair and is wearing earrings and a patterned dress. She is looking sadly up at the disco ball and reaching towards it. There is a ribbon of light coming from the disco ball and it is spiraling around her. The caption reads “Space Girls Dream About Space Too” in a 60s font.
