Artists are allowed to make fucked up upsetting art. You are allowed to block them if it bothers or triggers you. You are not allowed to demand that transgressive art never exist. Especially when the artists are marginalized or queer and already have society trying to erase them.

I woke up to the sound of rain this morning! 🌧 Right outside my window! At my last place you couldn’t tell if it was raining unless you saw it; not even when you had your windows “open” (they were locked from opening more than an inch or two) Stayed in bed a couple hours listening 💧🌱🌿💦🌿🌱💧

Good morning! Waking up after my third night at my new place, still have one more trip to do to finish moving officially Cant wait to settle back into my work, now with amazing mountain views and surrounded by deep forests and lakes 🍀 It’s so much quieter here, and affordable! 🌾🌿🌲🌿🌾

Just got back from an errand and found my partner scampering away... Only to find all my favorites put together for lunch waiting for me 🥹 My favorite milk coffee, my favorite dessert, butter chicken from a local place omg 8u8 I must have saved a country in a past life or something to deserve this

Life's busied me lately, lots of work to do. But any sliver of time I get I spend on Octobey's dangerous culinary adventures...🫚🧄🌾 Like today!!! It's Cannibal day today! Yippee! 🪶 Soon life will not only settle but improve and then every day will be Cannibal day! 🤠 Yeehaw!

I daydream of my cannibal gourmet comic and drawing out the menus of delicious, nutritious cannibal meals, like some are very straightforward and others with garnish and it's all quaint and fun and delightful,,, and I can release Tobey into the dangerous woods to find spices for his roasts omg 🫚🧄🌾

A cover concept I designed for Between the Sand and the Sea. Whether or not it ever becomes the final jacket, that's to be seen! 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒆𝒎𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔 𝒂 𝒎𝒂𝒔𝒌. 𝑺𝒐 𝒅𝒐 𝒊𝒕𝒔 𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒏. 𝑨 𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝒇𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒔𝒚 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒍 𝑻𝒖𝒓𝒄𝒐-𝑷𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅. #BTSS #amwriting #amquerying #betweenthesandandthesea

A mockup of a fantasy novel shown from the front and back. The front cover features a towering crimson palace with turquoise domes and arched colonnades, inspired by medieval Central Asian and Ottoman architecture. In the foreground, two illustrated boys are stacked vertically within a black diamond frame: a dark-haired prince facing upward and, inverted beneath him, a white-haired thief with red clothing. The title, Between the Sand and the Sea, appears in an ornate cream-colored cartouche across the center. Small scenes of soldiers, banners, birds, and palace life decorate the lower edge, framed by a dark blue ornamental border. The spine matches the cover’s colors and decorative motifs. The overall design uses a limited palette of reds, blues, golds, and creams with a flat, graphic illustration style reminiscent of illuminated manuscripts and vintage travel posters.
