THE ORIGIN:

I usually begin by crafting patterns and color gradients into some digital magic. After I manifest something gratifying, I might branch off into one of many avenues. Most likely an essence reveals in the pattern and dignifies a subject that I will integrate as the theme or I see a cynosure and then flip the patterns around that point to stimulate another focal point.

SECRET WITCHERY:

It's not really a secret, but I definitely found my style one night/early morning while on some extracurriculars. While lumbering through the blending modes I realized that I could duplicate the blending effects between multiple layers. I started with a few layers that I had already established and I became immediately engaged. The results were almost literally blowing my mind. The interplay between layers started connecting in the synapses of my brain and I was off on a new artistic journey.
