Congrats to Amara on her capstone project. The character design shows Agnes, “Throughout her journey she wrestles with the concept of faith, ultimately falling victim to a parasitic dark entity that uses her as a host under the guise of pretending to be one of the ancient gods her people worship.”

Congratulations to @lexamillionstudio for passing 303 this semester. Lexi wrote and illustrated three poems that “explore uncomfortable themes, twisting them into fairy-tale-like scenarios.”
