septima-severa

A lot of things happened. During those turbulent times, I totally forgot that some DeviantArt even existed, and migrated towards Instagram where I can post freely all the behind-the-scenes of my major creations. Yet I struggle - a lot. You know, I have always regarded the social media as something to hone one's ego, I even haven't visited my personal FB account for almost a year.
