'Take caution, my child. Humans have only been lured to the waters because of the shining moons beneath it, for they believe these will bring them fortune and prosperity.' 'Not love?' 'When has it ever been about love for them? If you are lucky, however, as the legends say...the one who loves a sea folk forever is usually lured by the song of our longing, not the pearls. But as with its nature, it is just a legend. So don't go looking for the one you're destined with up there in the surface. A sea folk's heart would never bear the pain of a human's fickle love.' And so the young sea folk swam to the surface, not realizing the older sea folk’s tone and sighs. She waited with bated breath as the tiny moons beneath the waters shone like that of the same, albeit gigantic one up there in the stars. 'They're up here, the one who will love me forever. I know it.' And so she sang. ----- I've been experimenting lately with things I'm not comfortable drawing. Lighting, color, perspective. I know, the basics. Boink. This idea came to me yesterday after being frustrated of not being able to draw what I was supposed to draw. I think this is sort of a 'shake off' of some kind, something to get me back on track. A good distraction, I guess.

The cold is settling in some parts of the world, autumn finally making its entrance, bringing with it its own golden glow. Finally drew the adorable and admirable person that is Taehyung, which took me so many years to actually attempt to draw him. Of course, Jeongguk is there to brighten up the rainy days. This is my first attempt to draw them and it makes me happy to be able to do so. Please don't repost without credit. It took me such a long time to draw them. Much love to BTS and to ARMY!

Inspired by the light of the moon, of midnight oceans, cool mornings, delicate lace in the light, dainty teacups and cozy afternoons. 

Embroidery is my hobby, an activity that is both thrilling and tranquil at the same time. It soothes my restlessness and gives me a very good reason to sit down and create. I love the connection that it brings to me, as my mother loves creating crochet pieces as well as cross stitches, and my grandmother and uncle both sew dresses for a living. 

I love the push and pull of needle and thread and the way the whole piece feels in my hands. 

This is a hand-embroidered and hand-sewn pouch made by me.

‘Sunlight filtered through the thick canopies of leaves above the forest. It was still very cold as winter has just returned to her sleep and the remnants of her still left a gentle breeze in the wind. Among the sprouting wildflowers, a white raven watched as something stirred atop the still snowy hill. The bird's blue eyes caught the slightest movement of a hand and within seconds the raven landed on a woman's red-tipped fingers, outstretched daintily from her black velvet sleeves. They stood watch over the forest, their eyes still glittering of frost and bitter cold. It will take them some time to get accustomed to the golden glow of spring.’

Autumn winds, send me flowers of white and gold, of leaves orange from an age of old. The chill of winter calls me forth, but I say nay, I shall enjoy these fiery colors for a little while more. October is ending and I ponder how time flies so quickly. Does it decide to go fast or do we hold the reins of time in our very own hands? I suck at making chants, but I hope the words were clear, somehow. *

'Ah for shame! Day and night she stares at her own reflection, marvelling at her visage without fail.

How vain, how selfish to be in love with your own self!'

Silence followed the passing of the onlookers who spied once again at the lady who kept herself company by the riverside.

Only the wind ever spoke to the flowing of the water as the lady stared at her reflection.

The plants rustled then as a shaky hand reached out to touch the reflection in the water.

'You are the only one who would ever listen, who would ever care, the only one who could only understand me. Don't worry,

it's just us two here. No one can tell us such cruel things. They know nothing, they never do. '

The grass swayed in agreement, whispering amongst each other, saying:

'How cruel to call her vain, when all the kindness she had ever received is from her own self. Ah for shame!'

October 2020

May you find peace within yourself that the cruelty of others will be forgotten as you find comfort in your own heart.

This is very close to my soul. I could not stop thinking about this and even if I kept having mistakes when drawing this I found myself trying to finish it. It had to be told.

Narcissus came to mind when I was drawing this.

Who is to say that a person who looks at their own reflection is vain, when all they are doing is finding that safe space that only they themselves can provide?

Hello you guys! I made a Ko-Fi account! ko-fi.com/marielisthename

I've been thinking about opening one for some time and now I went for it. It's a platform where one can give "Coffee" or about 3USD (180.00 Philippine Peso) per tip to support a creative they love. It's such a nice concept, really. The tips I receive will go directly to art supplies that will then help me create more illustrations and stories. 

Such things mean a lot to me and every cent goes a long way.

The next series will be inspired by folklore and I'm so excited for that. 😘 I hope you are all having a lovely time, dearies!
