Elegance in Decadence
Midway through the “Paradox of Horror” by Berys Gaut, I got sidetracked by thoughts pertaining to the reading. Moments later, I found myself scribing where I should’ve been note-taking. Fear, disgust, and negative emotions are NOT intrinsically unpleasant, according to Gaut…according to me, the elegance of the dance of decadence shall evoke the very same concept. Oh, and since I accidentally messed up the stroke weight of the “d”, I figured turning it into a serpent’s tail would draw attention away from my mistake…oops.

ESPRESSO AETERNUS
According to the Ancient Coffee Legends, Espresso Aeternus (otherwise known as “The Deity of Vitality”) grants all patient nocturnal insomniacs with rivers that flow with the richest Ethiopian coffee, brewed to perfection…in their non-existent night-time dreams.

Frantic at Four (AM)
As I inked this li’l thing out in a state of serious exhaustion, I eventually passed out.

Solo Stargazing
I used to like to adding my distinguished rings as a ‘watermark’
Almost every weekend night during the summer of 2014, I journeyed into the depths of the cosmos, and back. During these phantasmic oscillating trips, my speed exceeded that of light. Those nights were…like a vacation intertwined with meditation…the highest form of worship! One would not appreciate it unless they have completed this worthwhile pilgrimage.

This was‘sCzeched’ to the sounds of Antonín Dvořàk, Symphony No. 9
(get it?! because he is a Czech composer!) :D

Origins (Unequal Evils)
I do not want to say who these three vile men are, but obviously their maliciousness cannot be compared to one another.

Winter Solstice
I shared this on instagram (back when I used to have an account), and applied a horrendous filter to it. When I find my old sketch book, I will take a proper photo of it and upload it in place of this. This sketch was for a Christmas card project for school, but I took a bit of a  secular route and gave it a Yule theme.
