Soul of Suw

In today's #SoulofSuwBehindtheSheets we learn that genius is not always planned....and I use that term loosely Check out the Soul of Suw website to see what I mean

Today's #SoulofSuwBehindtheSheets is a short but sweet post. This page introduces Snoogums which is a character inadvertently named by my mom. When I was a toddler/baby Mom would call me her little "Snoogums" so this became a fitting name for the supremium that represents the joy of youth.

Today's #SoulofSuwBehindtheSheets blog introduces two crucial characters to the storyline, Midnye the supremium of death & Faith the warrior of light. Discover the inspiration behind these two characters at the Soul of Suw website.

"The end is the beginning" is a common theme in Soul of Suw. This page reflects how the death of the goddess of love, leads to the birth of souls. I wanted to present the origin of life not as a conscious decision made by a supreme being but rather, a sacrificial or forced transitional act in which the life of one converts to the life of another.

The beauty of being an entrepreneur is you're always present. Everything you do, your work, your projects is you. Some times working for corporations can make you feel a lil underappreciated or worse...invisible. And though they may boost your resume, sometimes it's nice to feel a part of something bigger rather than just a part in something bigger. This weeks #CreateInspireExplore_repeat blog features Christine, an entrepreneurial brand manager who left her home to start a new life in the ATL. Check out the #SoulofSuw website for her interview.

This is one of my favorite pages from the first issue of Soul of Suw. Here you meet Amage (pronounced ay-maug) the personification of love along with a host of other supremiums (pronounced sep-pre-um). Supremium are god-like beings that are muzik incarnate.

"At the end of eternity, time began and in the beginning was muzik" As Soul of Suw developed into a mythology, I became determined to give it an African-American theme. This wasn't Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones so I needed to create a different identity for the story. As I researched I would soon discover the deep penetrating association music had in African-American culture and in turn, discovered what a great influence this culture had on the Americas.
