The Bench by the River
Every evening, I walked past the same old bench by the river. Its wood was weathered, gray with age, the paint long gone, and yet it had a quiet dignity that made me pause, if only for a second. I had always been in a rush—rushing home from school, rushing to finish homework, rushing to keep up with life. But that evening, something about the rain, or maybe just my exhaustion, made me stop.

The Night I Decided to Build My Own Universe
The Quiet Birth of a World There is a specific kind of silence that only exists at 3:00 AM. For me, that’s when the Lyonheart Universe actually started to take shape. It wasn't a sudden "lightbulb" moment or a calculated business plan; it was just a single, persistent image of a character that I couldn't stop thinking about. For months, these fragments of dialogue and half-formed scenes felt like haunting questions that I was being forced to answer through a camera lens. It didn’t arrive ready for a global audience; it arrived as a raw, messy need to tell a story that felt different from everything else I was seeing on my feed.

How Colors Influence Your Mood and Behavior: The Psychology of Color
The Blue Room Where Everything Changed Maya hadn't cried in three years. Not at her grandmother's funeral. Not when her engagement ended. Not even when she lost the job she'd spent a decade building.

The Day the Silence Learned to Speak
On the edge of a quiet town called Marrowell stood a clock tower that had not spoken in twelve years. People still checked the time by it, of course. The hands moved faithfully, circling the face with stubborn loyalty, but the bell—once the town’s heartbeat—had gone silent after a storm cracked its iron tongue. The mayor promised repairs. The years promised forgetting. And forgetting, as it often does, won.

Angel Number 0088 – Abundance, Karma, and Personal Authority
The Law of Harvest 0088 is the number of power, manifestation, and financial abundance. In many cultures, the number 8 is the most auspicious of all, representing the infinite flow of energy. When doubled to 88 and magnified by 00, it carries a heavy message about Universal Karma and the manifestation of wealth—not just in money, but in spirit and opportunity.

Route 66
boots (my own) These two illustrations are in a new adult coloring book entitled 'The Route 66 Coloring book'. The black and white drawings were drawn by other artists I just colored them with my favorite medium colored pencils using in the boots drawing-orange, yellow, red and black, brown and tan. In the main illustration it's a drawing of one view of Route 66 traveling down the road. I used shades of blue for the sky, shaded together black and gray for the road as well as greens for the trees and in the fore front I used orange and red for I made the little area like a flower patch on one side and light green on the other side. Again, I used colored pencil for this one as well.

The Play Blanca Spoon in Concrete
Quantum metapolitics describes a condition wherein political activity appears to occur everywhere at once whilst manifesting nowhere in particular, creating the impression of ubiquitous political engagement that paradoxically produces no substantial political change. The concept captures how contemporary political life has become characterised by constant motion that generates no movement, endless activity that produces no transformation, and perpetual crisis that results in systemic stasis. Within this framework, where all political discourse has been absorbed into spectacular systems of representation and simulation, the spoon embedded in concrete emerges as something altogether strange: a deliberate anti-spectacle that refuses incorporation.

A Modern African Tarot
The twelfth card in A Modern African Tarot brings the journey face-to-face with consequence. Where X WHEEL OF FORTUNE explores cycles and change, XI JUSTICE demands clarity, fairness, and responsibility. This card reimagines the traditional Justice archetype through African legal symbolism, moral integrity, and the balance between tradition and reform.
