About Epic82

Hello, and welcome! Across the internet, I go by the username Epic82. I'm a digital art hobbyist and writer with a passion for worldbuilding, storytelling, and digital artistry. The name of the fictional world that I explore in my writing and artmaking is a massive universe called Beriah.

I use a variety of digital tools to form this world. For writing and brainstorming about Beriah, I use Google Docs, ChatGPT, and Sudowrite. For illustrating Beriah, I use both online and local AI art generators, such as Whisk, Leonardo AI, Fooocus (Stable Diffusion), Mage.Space, Pixel Dojo, and KlingAI. I also use Inkarnate for my maps and GIMP and Canva for additional image editing. While I don’t have formal art school training, I’ve studied art through a local program at a popular art center in the American state I live in. And I took several college courses while earning my bachelor’s degree in writing.

About Beriah

Beriah is a Hebrew word meaning “creation” or “something made new.”, and it’s the name I've chosen for this mythic alternate universe. The fantastical cultures of Beriah are based on the cultures of the ancient world and prehistory. In the alternate timeline of Beriah, history transpires from the dawn Creation to the dawn of the New Creation. Humans on Beriah have technology equivalent to that of humans

About Mature Content

As a Christian, I understand that my work may surprise some viewers. It blends sensuality, spirituality, and myth in ways that don’t always align with modern expectations of “Christian art.” But like the Song of Songs in Scripture—a deeply erotic yet sacred book—my work seeks to honor the beauty of romantic and marital intimacy. Many of my characters and stories are inspired by my dreams of marriage, and the longing to love and be loved deeply. The sensuality in Beriah is not gratuitous, but poetic: a way to portray the beauty of covenantal desire, sacred femininity, and human longing in a mythic context. I create primarily for men who, like me, value both beauty and meaning—especially those who are navigating singleness, love, or faith.
