The Ghost in the Halls from the solo exhibition of the Eternity Concepts collection by Xexilia O. Shadows, which shares the name of Eternity Concepts with her—my—retro webcomic romance mystery manga beginning in 1999 and still ongoing! This piece will be on presentation in the Halloween Art Show at ArtWorks Gallery for their Fourth Friday event on October 24th at 6 to 8PM (Which I will also be attending) and the following month after. The original is being prepared for sale, but limited edition prints, including those displayed in the exhibition, are available along with open edition prints, and are available in any size or medium for sale, display, installation, exhibition, or loan. The title is from a lyric from Sarah McLachlan’s beautiful song, “Building a Mystery”.
A ghostly figure stands in a dark doorway wearing a dark cloak and carrying a large scythe, staring at the viewer with intensity. The viewer is left to decipher the meaning of this work and can be aided by reading Eternity Concepts online, accessing the official website, reading Eternity Concepts Volume 1; All Will Be Revealed in Time via print or ebook, accessing Facebook pages and Discord groups and connecting with other readers to share clues and insights, joining the mailing list, supporting my works via Patron or Ko-Fi, purchasing prints, and carefully analyzing every element related to Eternity Concepts online and off. . .because the clues, and the answers, are already there, and aren’t all in one place! Select works, supporters, purchases, etc. include extra clues not released. . .or may not be clues at all. Become a part of solving the mystery before time runs out!
Well it may not be #PortfolioDay and this is in no way connected to #Artober or #Inktober (not even made as a result of), but before this piece goes to a showcase and charity art auction in NYC, it’s been chosen to be part of the art show for ArtWorks Gallery RVA! 🥳 I’ll be there Oct. 24, 6-8PM! 👻 🎃

Coup de Grace from the solo exhibition of the Eternity Concepts collection by Xexilia O. Shadows, which shares the name of Eternity Concepts with her—my—retro webcomic romance mystery manga beginning in 1999 and still ongoing! This is a close up of the piece and this image is actually from a misprint which has errors called moire in the printing, namely the face of Hollow (the featured character of this piece), which I took to show the print company and to demonstrate the effect; This was caused by the company using software that automatically resized the image slightly and is a common problem with printers not accustomed to working with pieces using screen tones. The original is being prepared for sale, but limited edition prints, including those displayed in the exhibition, are available along with open edition prints, and are available in any size or medium for sale, display, installation, exhibition, or loan.
Hollow stands before a combination of a clock and round rose window as glass shatters around him and his hair and clothing are whipped and tattered as Hollow stands against the aftermath, one hand grasping a rapier sword with an angelic motif, and the other clutches the head of a being, face unseen, with long, sharp horns.

Select works, supporters, purchases, etc. include extra clues not released. . .maybe. Become a part of solving the mystery before time runs out!
All You Did was Save My Life from the solo exhibition of the Eternity Concepts collection by Xexilia O. Shadows, which shares the name of Eternity Concepts with her—my—retro webcomic romance mystery manga beginning in 1999 and still ongoing! This is a close up of the piece and is one of the few pieces with a decidedly happy atmosphere, and combines my love of literary romance classics and modern dance. The original is being prepared for sale, but limited edition prints, except the print displayed in the exhibition (Acquired by a private collector), are available along with open edition prints, and are available in any size or medium for sale, display, installation, exhibition, or loan.
Hollow, surprised, appears to have fallen into or been swept up by the arms of Julian, who looks at Hollow with deep affection. It’s inspiration comes from the emotional support of friends and fans of my work, and is dedicated to them along with taking it’s name from a song of the same title by Our Lady Peace. Deeper insight into this piece can aided by reading Eternity Concepts online, accessing the official website, reading Eternity Concepts Volume 1; All Will Be Revealed in Time via print or ebook, accessing Facebook pages and Discord groups and connecting with other readers to share clues and insights, joining the mailing list, supporting my works via Patron or Ko-Fi, purchasing prints, and carefully analyzing every element related to Eternity Concepts online and off. . .because the clues, and the answers, are already there, and aren’t all in one place!

Who Am I Offending Now from the solo exhibition of the Eternity Concepts collection by Xexilia O. Shadows, which shares the name of Eternity Concepts with her—my—retro webcomic romance mystery manga beginning in 1999 and still ongoing! This is a close up of the piece and this piece is an updated work first created in 2000 that, despite begging to enter a piece into a highschool art contest, was removed by the head of the Art Department as they felt LGBTQAI+ relationships were against their religious doctrine and that displaying the piece would suggest the school was “encouraging” such relationships. The original is being prepared for sale, but limited edition prints, including those displayed in the exhibition, are available along with open edition prints, and are available in any size or medium for sale, display, installation, exhibition, or loan.
Hollow and Julian appear first looking as if interrupted before a private moment, and below are shown laying together in a forest clearing with the ground covered in autumn leaves. This piece is, obviously, a statement that hatred is what will not be encouraged or tolerated, that such works are not shameful, and that I refuse to be silenced on the idea that this offends. The title is from a lyric in Taylor Swift’s Exile. Additional meaning can be aided by reading Eternity Concepts online, accessing the official website, reading Eternity Concepts Volume 1; All Will Be Revealed in Time via print or ebook, accessing Facebook pages and Discord groups and connecting with other readers to share clues and insights, joining the mailing list, supporting my works via Patron or Ko-Fi, purchasing prints, and carefully analyzing every element related to Eternity Concepts online and off. . .because the clues, and the answers, are already there, and aren’t all in one place!

A traditionally drawn page of Eternity Concepts from the studio residence of Xexilia O. Shadows, at ArtWorks Gallery in Richmond, VA! I’ve since opted to reside in a display studio and have a home art studio I work in, and also provide private showings and tours of both spaces to interested parties. This page is part of volume 2 and hopefully will be released very soon!

@lwflouisa.bsky.social Re: Bad Google Results, SAME. I’m still not used to it’s AI being the first thing I see, and it messed me up at work editing an article (Also, DM me on Discord today/this week/next week and let’s do a long call like the old days!) Also now I’m Head of Creative (and paid!)

Remember, when you shop at a chain store, you're paying for a CEO's 3rd yacht. When you shop local, you're investing in your community

Starting Fen 26th Amazon will be removing the 'download' function from ebooks, meaning once you've bought it you will no longer be able to save it to a PC or other device. So you can still download and buy ebooks, but they will only be accessible on your kindle/device. 📚😔
