'every day collides with itself'. pencil. this drawing is one of my favourites ever. I drew it at last year's end/this year's beginning. sometimes, life throws you off your bike⭐ it's a rite of passage! by @jessereads.comics

an abode santann ring I made a few years ago👁️. this adinkra symbol represents God's omnipresence in the fabric of all of creation. it's an all seeing eye, that includes the 8 directions found on a compass. it also includes the rays of the sun, the moon (divinity) and the stool (the social infrastructure and creativity of human beings). this is @noahdacosta_ 's ring now! 🇬🇭 to me it's a great way to understand how a shared source inhabits all vantage points of experience and creation itself, all at once. the akan language expresses this very eloquently indeed, captured in a single symbol ⭐ by @jessereads.comics

'if you' by @toddsantlers . I referenced this song a few posts ago. first I drew about it. then today, since the birds were doing it first, I wanted to sing it taken in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia by @jessereads.comics

I encountered one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard the other week. it really spoke to my soul so I've been working little by little on this drawing to put the feeling somewhere . Todd's song and video moved me to tears. it was kind of like a portal into the cosmic language of creativity itself. Usually I avoid using colour but it arrived so easily these last few weeks since listening to 'if you'... so shoutout toddsantlers for the inspiration ⭐ by @jessereads.comics
