We had an electrician in today working in the kitchen which is next to the studio. So in the interest of social distancing I worked out in the living room on thumbnails, concept roughs, and little things I could easily on a drawing board. Also things I could put down quickly so I could answer questions from the electrician. Amongst various things I scratched this out.

Unlike my regular Equestria dreamscape which has continuous, ongoing plot line my anthro MLP dreamscape is more collection of various concepts and ideas that may or may not be connected to other dreams. Of course this maybe because Petina gets screen credit in them for creative directing.

I've always been fascinated with the idea of genies. Last year at Babscon I did a drawing of Rarity in a hoodie and then later realized I'd done the drawing on backside of sheet of paper that had some possible poses for a piece of fashion horse as a genie.

I was able to scan both sides of the paper and combine them together as one image. At the time several people comment that maybe Rarity in the hoodie was still a genie, just undercover or incognito? This got me thinking about her as maybe being a genie, and recent conversations with other folks has made me wondering more about it.

So recently I had a dream in which Rarity was a freelance genie along the rest of her family. Rarity ran a consulting business for other freelance genies that were looking to accept contracts from potential clients, or were looking to improve their image to get better clients. One way to get better clients was by making a good first impression which she's just demonstrated to Spike.
