An old man told me a story I couldn't put down. I still don't know how much of it was true. Neither will you.
Maier files started there β a graphic novel following an ordinary couple, Dieter and Lena, after they surface the diaries of Otto Maier: a physicist who vanished without a trace at the end of the Second World War. What they find pulls them into a conflict between mighty, mismatched powers that never stopped fighting over what Maier knew.
It's rooted in real European locations, Germanic mythology, runic tradition, and history most people were never taught. Alongside the twelve published episodes sits a research archive of nearly 900 articles, published on the same site, in the same voice. No one draws the line for you between where the record ends and the story begins.
Self-published, cover to cover. No committee softened this, and none will.
This story is dedicated to those who know they do not know.
Under the warm glow of the moon, I draw the ache of beauty, the bite of memory, and the touch of the otherworld ,softly, slowly, and sometimes a little scandalously.
I treat grief like itβs holy and lust like itβs sacred. I draw the in-between where love lingers, where love isnβt lost, only changed And yes, sometimes the ghost gets to stick around and flirt a little.
My main weapon of choice is digital illustration (Procreate on iPad), though I like to dabble in the physical too; pencil, ink, colored pencil, gouache I like to try anything at least once.
Totalitarianism is a political system where the state strives to control all aspects of people's public and private life through mass surveillance, restriction of speech, state controlled media, and terrorism. This is what the corporate press and social media channels have become in America today.

It takes a good amount of effort and time in accurately crediting the artwork and providing its provenance. That is, whether the piece was published as a cover, interior or editorial illustration for a book or magazine, or perhaps as poster art, or something other. In some cases, extra context is provided based on the subject or history of the piece.
If you appreciate the effort and enjoy the variety of art posted, you can always show your support through token donations.
