A strange land filled with aliens, magic, monsters, creatures, kings, queens, stories, artwork, and places that keep getting bigger the further you go. But none of that existed when I first started. I didn’t have any stories, names, worlds, or places. I was just creating characters.

Originally, I wasn’t thinking about them as stories or a storyworld. The characters started off as art. I didn’t know who they were, where they lived, or what their stories would eventually become.

As I created the characters, I started thinking about them as artwork. I built scenes around them that felt as fun and imaginative as the characters themselves, experimenting with different apps, digital layering, photos, collage, color, texture, and various visual effects.

The style that came out of that became what I called Abstract Whimsical Psychedelia. The backgrounds balanced light and dark aesthetics and were filled with shapes, colors, patterns, and movement. Because of the way I layered the artwork, you could look into some of the backgrounds and start seeing other forms and images inside them, almost like the scenes kept revealing something new the longer you looked at them.

I would look at the colors and feeling of a finished background, choose the characters that worked best with the piece, and place them together to create a scene.

That’s where Xairy Blocks came from.

That’s also why you’ll see characters in Xairy Blocks that haven’t appeared in Xairy Tales yet. I created the artwork before I created the storyworld.

Characters became scenes.
Scenes became stories.
Stories became Xairy World.


XAIRY WORLD

Home to the Xairys.


Xairy World is a dark fairy-tale, anime action-adventure storyworld where myth meets motion. It is home to Xairys, monsters, magic, creatures, queendoms, kingdoms, magic flowers, and places that don’t always work the way you expect them to.

XAIRY TALES

Anime Action Adventure meets storytelling.

Xairy Tales is where you begin meeting the characters and discovering the world through their stories. Some stories are funny and strange. Some are adventures, and some get darker. Characters make mistakes, friendships change, worlds fall into conflict, and magic can help, harm, or corrupt.

A hero can be wrong. A villain can have a reason. A monster can be good. Sometimes who you think someone is changes once you know more of their story.

Will you follow the light, embrace the shadows, or find your own path?


ARCHETYPES

Hero. Villain. Superhero. Supervillain. Anti-Hero. Anti-Villain.


Archetypes are familiar roles in stories, but those roles can change depending on perspective. You can be the hero in one person’s story and the villain in someone else’s. Sometimes it depends on what happened, and sometimes it simply depends on who’s telling the story.

That idea connects to the first Magkk Flowers apparel collection: the Archetype Tees.

The collection takes those familiar character roles and puts the choice in your hands.

Hero. Villain. Superhero. Supervillain. Anti-Hero. Anti-Villain.

You are the archetype of your own journey.

We all make choices that shape the path we take. Sometimes we get things right, sometimes we get things wrong, and sometimes it’s something in between. Other people may see us one way while we’re still figuring out who we’re becoming.

Sometimes the role changes.

Sometimes the story changes.

And so can we.

At the heart of Magkk Flowers is a simple idea:

FOLLOW YOUR MAGIC

Magic is a mysterious power you possess.

Not tricks or illusions, but the part of you that is special, unique, and filled with possibility. Your magic can be your creativity, your imagination, your talent, your perspective, or whatever it is inside you that you know is yours.

Find it. Take it in hand. Work on it and follow it to the desired result.


And remember:


Follow Your Magic.

It only works when you do.

Step into the myth. You are the legend.
