About
'Gods & Serpents'
'We follow a young man named Eadmund as he navigates the aftermath
of being wrongfully imprisoned.
After months in confinement, he seizes an opportunity
to escape, only to discover that everything he once held dear
has been reduced to ashes in an ambush by cultists.
In his darkest hour, an insufferable deity offers him justice
in exchange for unwavering faith.
Driven by a desire for revenge, Eadmund accepts this proposition.
As he tracks down those responsible for the devastation, he uncovers something profound within himself—something unimaginably larger
than he ever imagined.'

Work's of Mine in Artistry
In earlier years,
at the age of 12, I commenced my journey into creating digital art (using MS Paint) alongside my best friend, which later transitioned into traditional pencil art by the age of 13. During the Fall months of 2016, I experienced a devastating house fire, then merely two months afterward, I endured the most profound heartbreak I had ever encountered. These incidents marked the onset of my depression, yet they also signified the beginning of my creative endeavours. After dropping out of school and experiencing a falling out with my best friend, I began to withdraw from social interactions entirely, immersing myself in art on a full-time basis. Over a span of five years, my skills evolved from simple doodles of characters from the band Gorillaz in 2017, to realistic portraits in 2019, tattoo art in 2023, and as of the Summer of 2024, watercolour painting. Which is what you see displayed in the gallery above. Each of these pieces conveys the emotions I conceal, as they each encapsulate a fragment of my heart within them.

About the author
Hi! I'm Dana.
I am (currently) a 22-year-old author and self-taught artist (And INTP). I have been writing since age 13, creating short stories, characters, comics, and song lyrics. My first poems bloomed as song lyrics in 2020, though, it was not until after I purchased my first poetry book that I realised that those lyrics held the potential to become poems. I had suppressed my writing from the public eye until last year, when I finally chose to debut my work as a poet. Not only out of an act of expression, but in hopes that others could relate, as I am an open advocate for mental health. I am heavily inspired by psychological thriller films, books, and music, and hopefully you will find that my work reflects that.
My other endeavours include traditional art and music production under the alias, HOST VIII.I.II.`
I received a Daily Deviation award for my poem 'The Branding' in November 2024.My artwork has been showcased in three YouTube videos.I have previously collaborated with two musicians; one was used as inspiration for song lyrics, while the other was involved in creating merchandise.
