Art returned during the same era that Axis was being assembled.


This page is not a portfolio, storefront, commission page, or separate public platform. It is a visual record of the personal art made alongside the writing: older work from years before Axis, photo manipulations from the first months of returning to art, and digital illustrations created after learning to work with a drawing tablet.


The pieces included here are part of the same life record. They show another form of recovery, attention, creativity, and becoming. Some were made quickly and instinctively. Others took dozens of hours. Some were experiments. Some became gifts. Together, they preserve the visual side of the same period that produced the books, the archive, the body record, and the public shape of Axis.


This work is included because art became part of the return. It is not here to sell anything or build a separate identity around the images. It is here because image-making came back, and what came back was worth preserving.
