What happens when a poet picks up a pen and remembers she likes to sketch too:)
I write poetry over at @words.bycm on IG and since Inktober is here, I thought it was time to let that side of me out of its little corner of Instagram.
This is 'What Is Freedom?', a poem I wrote about a blue bird that spends its life fighting to escape a cage, only to find its wings clipped when the door finally opens.
A little existential crisis, now available in ink.
I wanted to bring the poem into a visual form, keeping the bird, the open cage, and that big, complicated idea of freedom at the heart of it.
For the writers, designers, and other creative shape-shifters here: what side of your creativity would you bring to Inktober?
this is so gorgeous!

Would be a gread concept
Inspired by, I'm sharing one of my own concepts that wasn't chosen for the final design, but that I absolutely love.
This idea is so good! We all have concepts hiding in our drafts that never get to see the light of day. I think they deserve their moment, too. ✨
How many concepts die in your drafts folder? 💀
