Commission: Rainbow Railroad
My finished commission for Rainbow Railroad. Born in Barbados, I suffered a lot of discrimination there due to my LGBT identity. With the help of my friends and RainbowRailroad, they helped me moved to Canada in 2020. I started as a refugee and later became a protected person in June (right before my birthday too). I now live a happy life with my partner in Sudbury, Ontario. This illustration represents the transition and healing of my relocation to Canada. All Work-In-Progress images are available on my Patreon. ✿ Special thanks to my beloved Facebook friends and Rainbow Railroad who contributed in my time of desperate need to get to Canada! ✿ ✿ Special thanks to my bestie Nat Liong for spoiling me with his love and support! ✿ Love you all so much! o(TヘTo) *big kisses and hugs* ♥♥

I will discuss how it appeared, how it actually was, and then the fallout of how everything that came to be. The Allure of Paradise. If you read my initial article, “How I Escaped My Abusive And Manipulative Parents”, then you would have probably taken note that…
