GOTHIES story
A frail weathered skin anciano sits at a rustic wooden table, under a tattered fabric tarp. A raging cascade of razor-sharp raindrops beats the tin hut around him.
The anciano called, El Señor Ensueño, drifts into a daydream of deep thought to the percussion sounds of the tin.
Ensueño inscribes in his Diario, old parchment pages with worn shredded corners soaked, bleeding of ink. With his cracked craggy hands he charts in Goth-style drawings and notes, his death tale.
To cheat death is to cheat life itself. My story, best heard after tossing a wishing stone in the ‘Well of Ceiba’. And while you sleep you will dream of a tale of how I did just that.
”
My words are not to prepare you for death but to prepare you for life. A life in an endless loop of immortality wished by many, who seek it in the well.
But this is a cautionary tale, for the price of immortality is the risk of spending eternity as a fiend monster, for there are no cheats without consequences.

I went to bed last night at age six and woke up this morning as an adult.
Often I speak about the hourglass of my life. Certainly, I now have more sand on the bottom than at the top, but that’s how it goes. We all have limited time regardless of who we are.
Do you know why the most precious grains of sand are at the top of your hourglass? It is because they are so few. Each one left needs to matter before they are all gone, and once they are gone, you are gone.
No matter how hard one tries, it is impossible to see how much sand is left. No amount of money, prayer, or love for life can add grains. But lust, greed, fear, and anxiety can eat them up, drain them faster. The mystery of life has always been: How much can I do with the time I have?
I have worked as a creative leader across the entertainment industry for decades, on TV animation, films, theme parks, and AAA games. I’ve been lucky to help create some of the world’s most iconic properties. My philosophy is that fantastic visual art and design are the foundations of truly original storytelling.
With Gothies, I invite you to visit the place where the sand came from. Nestled in a universe that exists between wakefulness and what lies beyond.
