Into a Creator's Mind

Into a Creator's Mind

My name is Niahmu I go by the name of Niahmu the Raw Talent. I am a customizer who's been in this industry since 2015. I am originally a sketch artist based in Washington DC but I have found a way to take my art and talent and take it to a new level by giving personal art to people that is functional through sneakers, skateboards, and even decorative two dressers vases Etc.
My passion for my art is to share it with the world. I want my art to be something that gives people joy, gives people love, and just give them overall happiness. I want them to see my art as something they were both cherish and want to give to another as a gift. Since I began this journey I have seen ups and down learning lessons and it's crazy moments but overall I have never once look back and felt that I should quit what I'm doing because it is my passion, joy, and everything that brings me happiness outside of my loving family. Truly I am so appreciative for the talent I have and how my skills have grown thanks to God, it has put me on the path that shows me what I am capable of and what is yet to come. I am continuing my journey by going on YouTube and Instagram and showing to the world how I develop how I do my craft and how pieces are created.
This is just beginning for me I hope everyone continues to enjoy my art not just purchased it but to truly enjoy what I create. I like to look at something like a canvas no matter what type of object it is visualize and mock-up my design and plan and then bring it to life I truly enjoy creating and looking at what I had done as possible. I didn't make a factory by request of another I made it with my two hands.

Author's Corner: Savanna Malveaux

Savanna Malveaux, born in Atlanta is a true southern Georgia peach. Her love for reading and writing was sparked in early childhood. While life got in the way, as it usually does, Savanna focused more on reading than writing. Her first novel idea was born out of necessity during a solo vacation after finishing all the books she brought along (long before e-readers were wildly popular). While this is her first foray into professional writing, she has written blogs, poems, and short stories throughout her life. Savanna hopes her vivid characters and intricate plots are relatable, inspiring, or both. Savanna Malveaux desires to live in a world where women's sensual empowerment is not frowned on by society; but, where it is celebrated! When she is not writing or working her 9-to-5, she continues to travel the globe enriched through her interactions with diverse cultures and people.

‪Our Time is erotica, focused on women's sexual freedom/empowerment. While dealing with her own baggage, Leah the main character, helps her clients fulfill their most intimate fantasies. Almost every chapter is a different fantasy. Spicy read, with a great story line.
