Hi.

“Eat Your Makeup” is a 1968 short film by John Waters. This newsletter is a weekly-ish collection of my thoughts about art, culture, and social justice on the Third Coast, along with some of the projects I’m working on and links to my reporting.

It is written by Brittanie Shey (me), a journalist, fiber artist, and longtime Houstonian. My work has previously appeared in Eater, Bustle, Curbed, Rolling Stone, Modern Luxury, The Houston Chronicle, Houstonia Magazine, The Houston Press, and more.
