ruby onyinyechi: It's another journey story! Ijeoma means good journey in Igbo. The comrades audre and ada ride on an invisible okada [motorcycle taxi in Nigeria]. Known for their speed and spontaneity, this journey is quick, fun and easy! They are filled with bliss! Diver above - cos flying is like riding a bike is like walking. Air / water / earth are interchangeable in my drawn world. It all comes back to freedom. So I draw divers because I appreciate their weightlessness. Oh, but the pool is there too. Just not related to the diver - things get shuffled and I don't need to follow any logic! I've also drawn an architectural reference that appears as a perspective grid. Another way to nod to an expanse of space and the multiplicity of planes and dimensions
