Zephyo is my alias; I came up with it because it was my brother’s League of Legends username and I thought it was cool. By the time I wanted to change it, it already had a small following.

I’ve always been into art; I got my start doodling on walls, my parents yelled at me and gave me a sketchbook, and I haven’t looked back since. I’m still doing art because I love things that look nice and it’s very relaxing and relieves my stress.

Damn, I’d say all my favorite animes are films, but if I had to pick a series, it’d be Serial Experiments Lain or Madoka Magica. I just love the contrast of cute and dark. I’m not currently watching any series because I’m that type to either a) drop it if it’s boring or b) binge it all in one weekend, but I have a long list of anime films I wanna watch.

I’d say my artwork is like my taste in media: Dark, with a sprinkle of cute. I don’t know what exactly to call that style – semirealism, maybe? Minimalist at times?

Honestly, I’m pretty picky with anime, so I don’t like every anime out there, but for the animes I do like, I like them because the animation style is extremely unique while still being aesthetic, clean, and not too much shading. Also I feel like they focus more on dark, serious subjects whereas Western animations target children and focus on humor. Think anything from Masaaki Yuasa or stuff like Tekkonkinkreet.

Haha it’s just what I like – I don’t know how to explain it. I like cute things but I’m a very moody person, so I guess I project my dark thoughts onto cute stuff?

I like fashion and I like art, but I couldn’t find a shirt I liked that had a 1) quality art print and 2) was more than just a print slapped on a crew neck t shirt with no regards to shirt color/cut/etc. So I made my own stuff.

Probably the bloom crop sweater or 3am tee, to be honest. I always get compliments when I wear them out and I’m a sucker for compliments haha.
