Just wanted to scratch the itch.

...And so. "Dragonfaiyah" was born lol.

in fact "Fai" was never supposed to be my nickname but because pinoys are Like That and like to shorten everything they hear, Rafaela became Rafai which became Fai, and it stuck. more than a few people misheard it as "Fire" and it created a lot of puns and additional nicknames.

Fun lore for those who don't know me irl but "dragonfaiyah" was an obscure nickname I had even before my old artist name. a classmate of mine came up with it because I used to be known as that kid who really likes fantasy and...dragons,lol.
also because I was known for having a terrible temper lmao

Sigh im just having an identity crisis. And I'm 50% sure it's because of hormones that built up from both past week's stress and uterus-related things. I just feel like I used to be better than what I am now even though I know that's false... and I can pick this up again

Hidden Fai Art Lore.

Look at my old dragons... i used to be so good! These were from late high school to early college.
I loved drawing dragons even if the bodies intimidated me.

I want this old me back 😭 i miss my old dragons... i need to go back to them, i feel like i neglected that part of me

sorry for being cringe I'm trying to enjoy being alive

yes I still have that atalante wip
which is still a wip
...give me a few days 😂😅 I just need to work off all the frustration from the past week

some okay comm progress today which was very challenging but engaging. still need progress on my backlog but its been a tiring several few days...wondering if i should settle for a quick doodle to get back into my dragon-drawing mood from ages ago or just sit down and play to relieve the stress lol

nothing makes sense i am going to combust ong

I'm so tired of the emotional rollercoaster over the creative world, the job market, pinoy society, Im tired of losing hope. so I will simply run on spite. I'll complain the whole time but I'll claw my way up because god fucking dammit i have a place in this world and fuck anyone who thinks I don't.

(un)fortunately, I have an endless supply of spite. So as frustrated and angry as I am with how everything has panned out for society and myself I simply am just not going to budge. Just restrategize...

I feel like reality is so hellbent on suppressing my creative career and presence because of all the mishaps happening to me personally, and the government, and the world, and the state of the creative landscape, all the while I run on spite and fumes
