Up next is either a #YA #F fairytale retelling blending the 12 🩰👸 with ATU 451, or an upper #MG #HF set in the shadow of the Akron rubber strikes & featuring Victor Lustig's infamous prison escape.

Both fully outlined…it’s a tossup!

Which do you want to see first?

Staged photograph of an old fashioned heeled shoe made of brass, photographed on rippled golden fabric. Oversaturated and tinted with pink and purple hues, with an open rose laid across the laces. Photo mine. Black and white photograph of the Goodyear Theater in Akron, taken from the street in 2023, with the company's logo on the roof. Noise reduced to create a sketch-like effect and white vignette effect on the edges to create a faded look. Photo mine.

Hester spends her whole life in the dark…until her flatter half pays her a visit in SHADOWSCAPE.

Excited to share more about her tomorrow for day 2 of #DVparty!

All photos mine, featuring a cameo from my own shadow in the bottom center 👤

Happy #DVparty, everyone! This futuristic fantasy #moodboard is inspired by Vespertine, my MC who finds love and rebellion in an unusual place (i.e. a post-apocalyptic orchard in a solarpunk world made of glass).

All photos mine—I couldn't resist that rainbow from the Royal Opera House!
