THE inspiration BEHIND THE SERIES

Every set tells a story.

Rooted in my Southern upbringing and the imaginative world of my forthcoming speculative fiction trilogy, this diary explores Southern Gothic storytelling through nail art.

Each month becomes a new chapter shaped by symbolism, culture, memory, and a little of the uncanny.

CHAPTER 01 · OCTOBER 2026

Holy Panes

Growing up in the South, stained-glass windows were more than  decoration. They transformed ordinary light into something sacred, casting fragments of color across old, worn church pews and familiar faces.

For my first chapter, I drew inspiration from those windows and the contradictions they hold: beauty and solemnity, devotion and mystery, the sacred and the unsettling. Holy Panes reimagines that imagery where every color becomes a fragment of a larger story.

Some stories are written within the light that was birthed through darkness.

Style is another way to tell a story.
