i miss you
but i haven’t met you yet
so special
but it hasn’t happened yet
you are gorgeous
but i haven’t met you yet
i remember
but it hasn’t happened yet
and if you believe in dreams
or what is more important
that a dream can come true
i will meet you
i was peaking
but it hasn’t happened yet
i haven’t been given
my best souvenir
i miss you
but i haven’t met you yet
i know your habits
but wouldn’t recognize you yet
and if you believe in dreams
or what is more important
that a dream can come true
i will meet you
i’m so impatient
i can’t stand the wait
when will i get my cuddle?
who are you?
i know by now that you’ll arrive
by the time i stop waiting
i miss you

Cifii. I am in the beginning of starting a comic with her in it, called Glossolalia. Its going to be a rather personal piece. No real genre, it’ll be a mixture of my dreams, my fears, my hallucinations, and my feelings. I often fear for my…sanity…for lack of a better word. Mental illness runs in my family, my grandmother was 18 when she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, depression and schizophrenia. I do often see things, not really anything to worry some right now, but I do worry. I find that art and music is the only way I feel grounded. Some people cut themselves to feel alive…I pick up a pencil and make my paper bleed my life force. So “Glossolalia” will be a sort of grounding for me. To feel calm. I have been having some bad nightmares, I have barley been drawing due to work being insane, and even my fiance has pointed out that I have done NOTHING new. So this is just the start I promise.
Wow that was rather intimate wasn’t it? I just wanted to give a little explanation to apologize for being so absent from tumblr. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! I hope you all ate, drank, and were merry<3

Finally starting to get back into the drawing groove. That was the only down side to school. I drew so much once it was done I needed a break from it. Still exploring my OC Cifii and her world. I know the edges are rough, but its 12am and my dinner isnt sitting to well right now so…ef it. All in all, I am happy with it.

Glossolalia
So after a series on very fertile creative sources, I have given birth to a new story and characters under the name “Glossolalia”. Its a story of sound, miscommunication and love eternal. It follows the relationship of two sound waves name C-512 (Cifii) and C-128 (Shimon). They are accompanied by a variety of strange and wondrous creatures who help Cifii and Shimon navigate thier feelings for each other.
I was listening to Bjork’s new single “Crystalline” and then I watched the first movie in Mathew Barneys “Cremaster Cycle”, and this little strange idea grew inside of me.
I love beautiful and disturbing imagery. I love the feeling of being unsettled but not scared. It makes me feel alive and apart of something bigger then myself. I love confusing art and themes that need explaining. Though “Glossolalia” wont be that deep since I have trouble voicing my internal dialogues. In fact, “Glossolalia” means “I speak, I talk, I prattle, I make a sound”. But for my story it will mean “I speak, I talk, I prattle, I make sounds, and it is all for you. For you are the only one who hears me”.
I am going to explore the characters and the worlds they visit through the Deviant Art 100 Themes challenge, so each theme will be a small comic exploring the theme and Cifii and Shimon.
