This is a digital piece referencing the novel La Fantôme de L’opéra, published in 1910, with many details about certain aspects of the novel, such as minor plot points, themes, and even the scores of songs related to the novel (for example, “dies irae”). This novel has been a major inspiration to me throughout my life and has changed the way I see the world. It has become a huge motivation for my art as well, as I often try to weave in references towards it in both my paintings and writing.

Creativity is an instinct. Whenever I am creating, I feel so alive, so human. I do not believe that to be a coincidence. Creativity is humanity, communication, passion, and all other things that correlate to mankind. Anyone who is alive can be creative, because creativity is what makes people alive.
