Super excited to be redoing my personal portfolio!

Honestly glad that I tend to overdo these at one time. Looked back at my IG stories and while there is time in between, I’ve been more active than I recall.

Got another batch of character concepts done!

Truly will be magical to see these characters come to life frfr. But I’ll keep working on the depth all the while!

Control often feels like a shortcut to managing relationships, but it sacrifices the potential richness of bonds and freedom. -J.Z.

I really love AI because even if it isn't original, it serves as a random generator I can use to weave more tales into.

Normally, I write first and look for an image to match the vibe I envision. But something like this evokes an entirely different energy than the motivation that it came from.

While having a short part in the pilot, Quincy is definitely someone I have ton of love for. It's gonna be a movie once he appears on the scene again. I can't wait for you all to meet him proper.

Ngl, that last one didn't upload the way I wanted but it's too far gone for my current bandwidth.

Aside from that, I had a thought earlier about the importance of showing the bad parts of growth as well. In this age of content creation, I see that many people make sure to attract crowds by mostly showing the finished product which I can appreciate 100% but entirely undermines what I want to do. Representation has also been a very important concept in recent years and I think something that gets overlooked is the truth of the matter because it doesn't sell (unless your name is Disney or you've found your niche). I've never been one to worry about the sale when it comes to my actual projects though, I just do what I can. And I'm hoping that is a vibe that I can get across.

All that to say: It's a process.

I can't wait to revisit this project to be quite honest. It takes a little more effort but I think the product was worth it. I always try to update things and I'm not even sure how the next batch will go cause I like this format so much for promotional material as is.

The comment about Quincy's femineity form was so lit to me! Like it's small but I don't require much.

Already posted this one to tiktok but I'm transferring shit. Don't mind me.

Sephiel: Staple Tech

I'm moving items from other platforms...cause.

Decided that these two pieces of tech were indispensable for Modern Sephielian life. Had a ton of fun with making this dossier template, but I definitely like it more for the characters I will be introducing later!

Mindscape 12.22.24

Been really diving into the experience of it all and noticed tons of synchronicities among other tings going on. And yet, I start this day with a prick of sadness at the lack of acceptance in that very experience that I bring to the table. I take this life pretty serious and have had a pretty stern glare at death as a result. So when I say that this world is more than what we can sense and feel, I mean that shit. But somehow that sadness brought me to accept that I prefer it that way, even with my fear of the unknown and other anxieties - simply because wow, I don't want to have to actually connect with all people all the time, not even my loved ones. If we were meant to be each other, we would be that. I'm so glad to have my own breath and heartbeat. I rather perform my own song and dance if I must experience all the ebbs and flows that life brings.

This morning, I came across a post that I saved to the side since it matched the first name I gave this narrative of mine. I read the intro and just knew that our experience is really about the humanity of it all. The humanity and the subsequent ability that God gifted and cursed us with, change.
