IMMOLATE IS THE FIRST STORY I HAVE PUBLISHED. I STARTED WITH THE CORE PREMISE IN 2020 WITH THE ORIGINAL INTENTION TO POST ON MY INSTAGRAM AS A WEB COMIC, DUE TO EVERYTHING HAPPENING AT THE TIME IT NEVER GOT TO SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY IN THAT FORMAT. JUMP FORWARD AROUND 6 MONTHS, I CAME BACK TO IT WITH NEW IDEAS TO IMPLIMENT INTO THE STORY, NEW MOTIVES, NEW THOUGHT PROCESSES AND JUST A BASIC URGE TO WANT TO TELL A STORY FOR PEOPLE TO EXPERIENCE. IT WAS A VERY HARD JOURNEY FOR ME CREATIVELY, I HAD FACED MULTIPLE BRICK WALLS IN WAYS OF MENTAL BLOCKS, ARTISTIC BLOCKS, LACK OF SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE. IN HINDSIGHT THIS WAS A STORY IM GLAD I'VE TOLD, ITS NOT POLISHED BUT, WHAT IS POLISHED WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO FIND YOUR FOOTING IN AN ENVIROMENT WHICH IS SO NEW AND INTIMIDATING? IT'S REWARDING TO FLICK BACK THROUGH THE PAGES AND THINK OF HOW FAR I'VE COME AS AN ARTIST AND A PERSON SINCE THEN.
