One time recently I was home alone at night and my cat Dante was peering into the basement. It reminded me of this creepy artwork of a dog and a dark doorway. I've been wanting to do something similar. 

"Separation of Worlds" title comes from Silent Hill 4 unofficial soundtrack. It perfectly fits the vibe I'm going for. For similar vibes, also check out #10 (Tree) by Aphex Twin. One of the greatest tracks from one of the greatest albums of all time. In my extremely biased (but also correct) opinion.

Featured is my original character Herrington the Scottish fold kitten. I wanted them to look like a cute little dolly. Recently I have been looking at old childhood photos when we were dressed up in tacky poofy dresses for communion, weddings, etc. Saccharine 80s/90s fashion. A lot of the dresses we wore were made by hand by my mom and various aunts. It's like if a birthday cake was a dress.
