I wanted to share more about me & past creative endeavors ᡣ𐭩 •。ꪆৎ ˚⋅

Fantasy & photography have been loves of mine for as long as I can remember. I grew up watching Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter on repeat! (Star Wars too, of course.)
One summer my cousin came to visit my family for a few weeks, and she kept talking about how she was crafting a Pokemon trainer cosplay. I was immediately intrigued, which lead to my family getting me comic-con tickets to attend Phoenix Comic-Con with her in 2015. I spent weeks hand making a Daenerys cosplay for the occasion, and the convention was the most fun I had ever had. I loved how sweet the other attendees were, and seeing so many people so passionate about their nerdy interests made me feel so at home.

After the convention, I started cosplaying as much as I could. My high school years were spent crafting and cosplaying with friends, and I dearly miss it. As soon as I got into college, my free time became almost non-existent. I tried to find the time, but I just did not have it-nor have I had the budget. My art assignments ate up all my time and money. (Shown above are cosplays I did as an adult.)

I studied illustration and social sciences, but I particularly fell in love with painting. Above you can see some of my work from figure painting a few years ago! College made me realize I absolutely love portraying the female form through painting, as well as through photography.

My love of painting has bled into makeup and cosplay; I love getting chances to use body paint and creative makeup. Cosplay really was my favorite form of self expression for many years, and I hope to get a chance to do more of it!
As I've stated a few times about launching this Patreon, I am planning to start with casual content, but I hope to progress to larger creative projects. I'm so thankful that you guys enjoy what I do, whether it be the aesthetic I have cultivated, my fashion, my love of cosplay, or just the fact you think I'm hot ;) Your support will allow me to explore more of what I enjoy, and I am beyond grateful for that ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
