the worst feeling is wanting to read but you wanna read so many different books and you can not decide so you end up reading nothing at all.

I feel called out

i desperately needed to go out in the sun for a while after the last few weeks, so i did just that today 🥰

i try to not go into books with preconceived notions, but if your book's opening page is a curated playlist recommending me to listen to sabrina carpenter while reading, you should automatically refund me.

Not to complain, but whenever I pour my heart and soul into a piece, am overjoyed with the results, and excitedly show others, only to hear an "oh, cool," my ecstasy immediately drops (as it happened earlier today).

But anyway, may I present "The Tunnel of Escapism." Yep, I actually named it.

The purple fabric points to imagination. Then, the books come just after it, as a means for accessing the imaginary world. Then the tunnel, leading to the reading girl. What about the dragon? Is it green for a reason, and is it a coincidence that it's of a similar colour to the girl's dress? Actually, there is a reason! Do you know how, when you're reading (or after), you are vividly imagining yourself in place of a certain character? Living inside this universe in your head? The dragon shows how extreme our imaginary alter egos can be. So... don't mess with readers, I guess.

Tbh, though, it was originally just a concept art practice, as well as making new discoveries and conducting experiments in my program. I just really liked the sketch I once drew, and decided it needed colour.
