Journey
psychedelic pattern art: a surrealist portfolio by ⸘jason alan‽. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
welcome to the vivid unconscious, a collection exploring the intensity of the world through non-naturalistic color and abstract patterns. this portfolio is split into two distinct yet stylistically connected series: psychedelic wildlife and surreal portraiture. whether depicting the familiar silhouette of a zebra exploding with vibrant geometry, or diving in the symbolic weight of psychological burdens with the piece titled "death," my work uses vivid contrast and expressionism to illuminate the energy and unseen tensions within life. i invite you to explore this world where the familiar is constantly shifting, intensely colored, and profoundly honest.

The Painter of Hidden Sunrises
A reclusive painter woke before dawn to paint sunrises no one else witnessed. She hid the canvases under her bed, saying daylight did not need repeating. One morning, she found a stranger staring at one of her paintings. He had discovered it by accident and was weeping. “I didn’t know mornings could feel like forgiveness,” he said. From then on, she painted openly, sharing her work with anyone brave enough to knock on her door. Her sunrises became known not for their colors, but for the moments they helped people remember they deserved to start again.

If I Missed That, I Would Have Never Achieved My Goal
The bus was late — again. It was one of those sticky, summer mornings when everything feels slow: the air, the clock, even your hope. My interview was at 8:00 sharp. The kind of job my parents would be proud of — stable, predictable, with benefits that sounded like a promise of safety.
