Descry Magazine / Catalogue Of The Night /

After my appearance on the cover of Descry Magazine's issue No.1 I was approached by the chief editor and creator, Chelsea Rae Klein, to guest edit issue No.2. I feel honored to be apart of this collaboration. The second installment came out gorgeous featuring artist Michael Bailey-Gates on the cover and a slew of other talented artists inside. The first 100 copies receive an insert designed by Chelsea and myself with the help of artist Kate Diago's hand-written transcription of Bailey-Gates' text below.

"You hold your breath. As you close your eyes, your hair silently wraps around your pillow. The unfamiliar cool air licks your cheeks and you pull the blanket closer as if to comfort your racing mind. Memories of your childhood haunt you, the closet door creaks, the attic door shuts, the trees sway, and the house breathes softly. You raise your head, now heavy with sleep, and peer into the forest. The autumn leaves fall with the wind and wispier to you as your naked feet ache against the broken twigs. Walking, you touch the bark of the trees and breathe in the cool mountain air. Crows watch your body move slowly through the dark mist and you dance to the sounds of the night. You are lost, blissfully unaware of reality. You are gone. You are floating."
