A Footprint in the Making
I spent years hiding my work for fear of criticism, but I’ve realized the journey is too short for secrets. I am a creator who refuses to be confined to one path. By day, I navigate a professional world; by night, I am a student of the process.This space is my footprint—a record of stepping out to learn the new, revamping the old, and filling the gaps in my own skills. Whether it’s the fluid grace of watercolors, the tactile challenge of polymer clay, or the precision of digital modeling, I am here to find a voice without fear.I’m not just building art; I’m building a legacy for my daughters and a reminder for anyone watching: it is never too late to try, to do, and to be. Let’s create a better authentic self together.
Legacy isn't what we leave behind, but what we create every day.
| Day of Week | Medium | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mastery Monday | All - we pick | We sharpen the saw. This is where we break down the technical skills of drawing, painting, writing and digital modeling or any other medium we desire to explore. |
| Wordbound Wednesday | Poems or Stories | A day for the poets and storytellers. We'll explore the written word and the essays that keep us thinking. |
| Form & Figure Friday | Watercolor, Mesh, Drawing | We focus on the visual. From the aesthetics of a SecondLife avatar to the composition of a watercolor. |
| Studio Saturday | All - we pick based on the week | The "Real" Day. I'll share what I am working on, the research I am doing and the unexpected tasks that popped up during the week. |

Section III: Scars & Storms
Hope Matters
What do you do
when the world seems to rain
when the waters are rushing
and the heart is in painHow do you handle
that one more big thing
that impossible mountain
and the body is brokenWhy do you breathe
as your world is shattered
as life dances in ruin
and the soul is tatteredThere seems one answer
..............hope
and hope alone
.........Hope Matters-Janice
I am currently hand-painting original illustrations for this collection, bridging the gap between the written word and visual art. These verses are the footprint of a voice finally finding its courage—proving that no matter the storm, hope is the architecture of the future.
HOUQEEUM: The Keeper of Secrets
While they look to the skies, the destruction rises from the sea.
While the land-dwellers fixate on the stars, a storm is rising from the depths. A war is being planned to save a polluted planet, led by those the world above has long forgotten.At the center of the conflict is Juoeda—a rare being who appears once in an age. She holds the secrets of all universes, bearing the heavy burden of knowing everything that was, is, and will be. The secrets are hers to keep... and the weight is hers alone to carry.

Beneath the surface lies a world the sun never reaches. Discover the geography of the silent trenches.


Lore Logs

A peek into the lore, the mystery and what's to come
This is a work in progress and where bits and pieces will reside as we journey into creation, design and exploration. Stories need a place and space to develop, twist, grow and become. I am glad you are here to witness, participate and potentially be inspired to do.
