As with most of my work this was an image that simply popped into my head, but this one is not hard to figure out. Its a feeling I think we all have now and again- the need for escape. When the drama of this world starts to seem too much and you just want to fly away. But is it a one way trip? Is that a bad thing?
It might very well be a trap, but if you enjoy the ride, does it matter? Good question. I prefer to just live in the moment. Much simpler that way.
From 2004-2008 I was Creative Director for a free arts and entertainment night life magazine in New Haven, CT. It was a brand new publication with a very small crew and we built it entirely from scratch. You couldn’t ask for a better learning experience. I worked with and met some truly amazing people and am very proud of the work we all did. Sadly, like so many publications, the magazine didn’t survive, but it was time to move on anyway so it all worked out well.
Here’s a taste of the huge mountain of work I did on it.
Another image that just popped into my head and demanded being brought into the world.
I find that certain combinations of genre work perfectly- fantasy and post-apocalyptic is definitely one of them. But who knows- maybe the modern world coming to an end would bring magic back into the world.
