Ever since the age of eleven, I've had a deep love for history, mythology, culture, art, and fantasy. I’ve used these pillars of inspiration to create costumes, write stories, and develop concepts for unique portraits. These projects are my coping skills that aided me throughout the years. They are my way of showing others the magical (and sometimes downright weird) world inside of me, and they have also been my most successful method to communicate with others. Although I appear confident in person, I have a tough time explaining the thoughts and emotions stuck within my head. My creations are the feelings and ideas that I don't know how to put into words.  

My goal in designing these images, stories, creations, website, and more is to give hope and happiness to a world that has cast fairytales solely into the realm of children. I have a philosophy called BALBOMBIEL (bring a little bit of magic back into everyday life) and I have used it for over 20 years to alleviate depression and promote excitement and imagination. I have many cool projects, stories, adventures, etc. using fantasy and psychology and I hope to share as many as possible with you. My deepest hope is that by visiting this site and my social media, it may make your day just a little more magical...even if it is the smallest bit. 

Welcome to my world....
