Three years. I always knew who I was. I just spent two decades fighting to stay alive long enough to prove it. Everything I am as a creator was always in there. Waiting. Buried under survival mode. Under the weight of just getting through. There was so much inside me I couldn't reach. So much I didn't have the ground beneath my feet to build yet. And then something shifted. The door opened. I walked through it and didn't stop. Kept building. Kept making. Kept going back into the work even when the work wasn't ready for me yet. And somewhere in all of it, the vision cleared. The world got real. The voice that came out wasn't one I invented. It was one I finally got to let out. And then Route 47 happened. And I fell completely in love. I think about these characters every single day. These stories. This whole strange, broken, beautiful world I keep building piece by piece. They're with me when I wake up. They're with me in every quiet moment. I'm constantly pulling threads, deepening the lore, finding out what this universe is actually trying to say, because it tells you things if you listen close enough. I have fallen in love with what lives inside Route 47. Genuinely. And that love has changed me as a human being. Call me crazy, but hey... I was already halfway there anyway. I know what moves me now... what haunts me. I know what I keep coming back to in the dark. That kind of knowing doesn't come from a single moment. It comes from showing up every day and letting the work crack you open. This has been one of the greatest gifts of my life. And a blessing to meet so many talented and genius creatives. Three years of becoming. Two decades in the making. I'm just now finding out what I'm capable of and just getting warmed up. Thank you everyone who's been with me on this journey. A lot of big things happened this week that I'm not at liberty to discuss yet but I just feel truly grateful for everything ahead at the end of a long week. Have a great weekend everyone! 🫶🫶

GM!! one of the things I am most excited about with NODE is that it truly is a space for the community to exhibit art... so as part of my upcoming exhibition at the space, we'll have a community art showcase, similiar to what we do at Beeple Studio events!! note: this is separate from their OCCUPY series and only requires on jpg, mp4 or gif to enter!! send us your work, we'd love to have it be part of the show!!!!!! <3 @nodefnd <3
