WE ARE BACK

IM FREE, IM BACK,  FOR GOOD

10 MONTHS. TEN WHOLE MONTHS AWAY FROM YOU. I DON'T KNOW HOW I DID IT. I THOUGHT ABOUT YOU EVERY DAY. THE VIDEOS I WATCHED REMINDED ME OF YOU. THE PLACES I VISITED MADE ME THINK OF YOU. THE PEOPLE I MET REMINDED ME OF YOU. IT REMINDS ME OF THE FAMOUS QUOTE, "TO BE SO FAR BUT FELT SO CLOSE, YOU REMIND ME OF THE SUN." I WILL NEVER EVER EVER LEAVE YOU AGAIN. SEEN, UNHEARD.

I took a break from this project to pursue another project I had in mind. I'm not going to lie, I left because I was tired and hopeless. It's tough when you put your heart, soul, and spirit into something and don't get ANY response. Was it a success? To me, yes. Did the world receive it how I would've liked? No. BUT, I did change the perspective and mind of some people, so that is a plus. And as I stated in the About section, that's what Seen, Unheard is about — questioning and expressing the soul and what it is, what it's been through, and how it LIVES in this world.

I never stopped designing and thinking of great ideas, so NOW I'm at this point in my life where I'm like… shit, I have nothing to lose. I might as well go all in. And I don't mean how I've been going all in before, I mean ALL IN. SPEND MY LAST, MAKE CHOICES THAT INNER VOICE IS SCARED TO COSIGN. I NEVER DID ANY IN-PERSON SALES WITH Seen, Unheard, so that's what's next. I used PuzzleStories as a great way to build my confidence, I came out of my shell through posting on TikTok, and I even sold some in person.

I LOVE DRAWING THINGS I SEE, I LOVE DRAWING THINGS I HEAR, I LOVE DRAWING THINGS THAT MAKE ME LAUGH.

As I approach this next BEGINNING OF Seen, Unheard, I VOW to give my best and never slack. I VOW to express and never withhold. I VOW to support and never dismiss. We are all in this world and need help and love. We all individually make up "WORLD PEACE." So I will do my job to keep myself at peace and give the necessary tools to help others achieve the same.
