Vestiges of Amost # 8 ( Final piece!)
"Holding on... / finally letting go"
Vestiges of Amost #7
"On the surface, you were perfect
But you didn't really come to stay
Now, when I look in the mirror
I slowly watch you fade away
'Cause all I got left are the marks on my neck
After you let me go
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close"
Vestiges of Amost #6
"This revelation's overdue
Who says I wanna play these mind games anymore?
Middle of the night
Asking why
I've been thinking twice for so long."
!! Flashing Lights !!
It's been a while but finally getting to post this!
Another piece for my Vestiges of Almost mini-series.
it took me some time to get this posted because I was struggling how to animate this, but I've settled for this style because it captures how it feels sometimes in my head.
This piece is called " Where is My Mind"
For the first time, this won't have any specific music inspiring it.
Cheers!
Have you ever been so infatuated that you just feel like "This is it, this is my whole world, this is all that matters right now"
This is the feeling i tried to emulate in this piece, its a sort of dark isolated love that's so intoxicating but really just based on pure and sincere feelings.
I tried another method of animating for this piece, I've had it in my folders for a while now and was waiting for the right time to post it.
I feel like this works very well with this series of love and loss and almosts.
This song is inspired by Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince by @taylorswift / @taylornation
Lyrics inspo: "It's you and me, that's my whole world They whisper in the hallway, "She's a bad, bad girl" (okay) The whole school is rolling fake dice You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes It's you and me, there's nothing like this Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince (okay) We're so sad, we paint the town blue
Voted most likely to run away with you"
Vestiges of Almost is a mini-series about the different stages of love and what could've been.
Follow along to see the story unfold through illustrations!~
Starting the year with another 'Vestiges of Almost piece'!
I really tried to push myself a bit more with this one.
This song is inspired by Late Night Talking by Harry Styles Lyrics inspo: "I’ve never been a fan of change, But I’d follow you to any place, If it’s Hollywood or Bishopsgate, I’m coming too,
If you’re feeling down, I just want to make you happier baby, Wish I was around, I just wanna make you happier baby,
We’ve been doing all this late-night talking, About anything you want until the morning, Now you’re in my life,
I can’t get you off my mind,"
I feel like this piece is as straight forward as it gets, spending night till morning on the phone talking.

We are back with another 'Vestiges of Almost piece'!
It took some time, but I wanted to push my art skills further than I did last series.
This song is inspired by Message in a Bottle by @taylorswift / @taylornation
Lyrics inspo:
"I know that you like me And it's kinda frightenin' Standing here waitin', waitin' And I became hypnotized By freckles and bright eyes Tongue tied
But now You're so far away and I'm down Feelin' like a face in the crowd I'm reachin' for you, terrified
'Cause you could be the one that I love I could be the one that you dream of Message in a bottle is all I can do Standin' here, hopin' it gets to you You could be the one that I keep, and I Could be the reason you can't sleep at night Message in a bottle is all I can do
Standin' here, hopin' it gets to you"
This piece tells the story of an early stage of being in love, it's the yearning and wishing for something more. This bridges the last piece about solitude and sadness and moving towards a new chapter in life.

Finally introducing the very first piece for the Vestiges of Almost mini series~ Trying something a little different with this series with subtle animation. Song inspiration is: Will it ever feel the same by Bazzi Lyrics that inspired this piece: I'll delete your number out my phone, it will hurt, it will hurt, whatever Sit alone inside this house, right here, right now, forever Baby, when you're with somebody else, are you thinking of me? So, I met this girl last night She looked like you and it fucked me up, it's fucking me up I'm wondering Does the feeling of touching you, loving you ever go away? So, I'm sitting next to this new girl and it just don't feel the same Now I need to know Will it ever feel the same? Said, I need to know, yeah Do the memories wash away? She's always touching my skin I'ma touchback then she'll leave And I'm alone again, oh Will it ever feel the same? ------ This is a good song that bridges from the last series yet starts off an entirely different story. Vestiges of almost speak about the remains of what could've been something short-lived as compared to the previous series (Spilt Milk) that spoke of years going down the drain. Follow along as we unfold the mini-series together~~ ------ Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGLL9w66eSI
We are moving on to new heartbreaks
I realized I've been piling up artwork and not posting them. I've just been in a limbo of emotions and consuming music at full speed.
Here is a traditional painting I did some time ago.
I found a song that fits it called Nobody Else by Sneaker kids. This song has me in a proper chokehold and I see no escape anytime soon.
It's the type of song that feels like it encompasses two perspectives and you relate to it depending on where you are mentally.
My favorite part of the lyrics is:
Yeah I don't trust nobody else, you gotta love yourself Maybe time will treat you well, yeah it gonna treat you well I guess we'll find out What's your name, what's your problem babe I thought you gonna tell me something But then you go leave with nothing (Oh)
If you wanna play my heart and pluck my strings To sing your song, it's cool Tell you that it's all okay when I'm close to the brink And you say it's no excuse Nothing special when you think about it Don't blink - just believe that you're still astounded
listen to it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iInAogNIxUk
Today I finally closed the book for the Spilt milk series! Thank you to everyone who has supported it.
I am grateful for this space where I have been able to use my art to process the experiences I never thought I could resurface from. Feeling completely renewed let's keep moving forward! To more music and art!~
This piece has been inspired by my new comfort song, Better Days by SuperM.
Lyrics: I know that it feels like the world is falling down And you can't make it through There's gon' be better days, better days, better days for you. Just gotta hold on Yeah, I know that it hurts But the sun will shine through There's gon' be better days, better days, better days Around the corner it's true I said I know there's gonna be better days for you

It's been a while! I am bringing you another piece for the Spilt Milk Series! This is another piece for the "It gets better" mini-chapter This was inspired by Obsession by EXO Lyrics that built the concept: --- Ha! 그만해 둬 (Bang) 내 귓속에 쏟아대는 소리 I'ma let it blow 오감은 그것으로 쏠리고 곤두서고 들어온 너는 제멋대로 휘저어 한눈을 뜬 채로 잠들면 소리 없이 스며드는 The phantom I'm so sick and tired of it 불이 켜지면 네가 사라져 있길
Eng: Ha! It's enough All the gibberish on my ear I'ma let it blow My five senses are focused on it, on edge You come in and stir it up recklessly When I fall asleep with one eye open You permeate without a sound, the phantom I'm so sick and tired of it When the light turns on, I hope you're gone --- Official MV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxmP4b2a0uY
It's been a while! I am bringing you another piece for the Spilt Milk Series! This is the first piece for the "It gets better" mini-chapter This was inspired by Haunted by @taylorswift Lyrics that built the concept: --- You're not gone, you can't be gone, no Come on, come on, don't leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Something's gone terribly wrong Won't finish what you started Come on, come on, don't leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Can't breathe whenever you're gone Can't go back, I'm haunted You and I walk a fragile line I have known it all this time Never ever thought I'd see it break Never thought I'd see it --- Official MV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoQAyLditXQ
I am bringing you another piece for the Spilt Milk Series! This is the FINAL piece for the "Not holding on, just depressed you're gone" mini-chapter This was inspired by my tears ricochet by @taylorswift Lyrics that built the concept: --- We gather here, we line up Weepin' in a sunlit room, and If I'm on fire, you'll be made of ashes too Even on my worst day, did I deserve, babe All the hell you gave me? 'Cause I loved you, I swear I loved you 'Til my dying day I didn't have it in myself to go with grace And you're the hero flying around, saving face And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake? Cursing my name, wishing I stayed Look at how my tears ricochet --- Official MV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWbDJFtHl3w
I am bringing you another piece for the Spilt Milk Series! This falls under the mini-chapter called "This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things" Fun fact: This was greatly inspired by the concept of "its not a love story its a goddamn tragedy" and I just loved it! This was inspired by Bad Blood by @taylorswift Lyrics that built the concept: --- Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times You and I 'Cause baby, now we got bad blood You know it used to be mad love So take a look at what you've done 'Cause baby, now we got bad blood Now we got problems And I don't think we can solve them You made a really deep cut And baby now we got bad blood Did you think we'd be fine? Still got scars on my back from your knife So don't think it's in the past These kinds of wounds they last and they last Now did you think it all through? All these things will catch up to you And time can heal but this won't So if you come in my way, just don't --- Official MV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcIy9NiNbmo

Fun fact: This piece is my absolute favorite piece I've ever made as of now. I have been waiting to post this and the timing felt like forever.
This was inspired by Out of The Woods by Taylor Swift
Lyrics that built the concept:
---
Looking at it now
It all seems so simple
We were lying on your couch
I remember
You took a Polaroid of us
Then discovered
The rest of the world was black and white
But we were in screaming color
And I remember thinking
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we in the clear yet?
In the clear yet, good.
