Lyrics drenched in sinister rage & cult-like reverence

^{Hey there, I'm Aster and I'm a writer and artist. I was raised in the American south but now I live in the PDX area.I'm working on a lot of different projects and while the settings and characters in them may differ, the common thread in all my stories is a backdrop of unsettling and liminal horror.All my work is heavily inspired by the music I'm listening to (which is largely in the various metal genres) and I like to think it shows.When I'm not writing or drawing you can probably find me going for a drive (so I can listen to music with the windows down) or wandering around the PDX area admiring historic buildings, architecture and nature.}

Inspiration

^{Road trips at 2am | Empty, foggy parking lots | Colored glass in the sunlight | Poppy Z. Brite's work | Max Gladstone's work | The Crow (with Brandon Lee) | Nu Metal | Metalcore | Prog Metal | Some of my favorite bands that I draw a lot of inspiration from are 3Teeth, Cane Hill, King810, HEALTH, Haex, VOWWS, Katatonia, Mastodon, TesseracT, Breaking Benjamin and Tallah}

Do you offer commissions?^{Not currently. I don't typically offer commissions very often but if I ever have them open I'll update this page and my socials and there will be some kind of announcement.}

Can I draw your characters?
^{Abso-fuckin-lutely! Nothing would make me happier and make sure you tag me if you do!}

What's the best place to follow you?
^{Currently I'm most active on Tumblr but I'm trying to be more active on Bluesky as well}

Can I repost your work or use it for my own purposes?^No.

What does Kelrath's band The Dead 3 sound like?
^{I have a playlist here. I think songs on this capture not only the vibes, themes and sound, but 3Teeth and Haex are pretty close to the voice I imagine.}

What does Split-Axe sound like?^{I have a playlist with inspiration for sound here My biggest inspiration is Cane Hill, King810, and Tallah}
