Day 469: Kristin Kwan
From Kristin’s about page:
“HELLO!
I am an artist who makes illustrative paintings and drawings. In my work I use elements of fantasy and allegory to explore themes of life, death, and rebirth. I live with my husband, daughter, and crowd of pets in Lincoln, NE.
When I was growing up my family moved many times, and every new home held mysteries and secrets. I dreamed of hidden stairways that led to unknown attics, or cellars underneath that held forgotten treasures. I knew I could get there if I just kept looking. That low door is still elusive, but when I pick up my pencil or paint brush I can find it for a little while. When I paint I try to bring some of that magic country back with me.”

tips for exploring the woods at night with your significant other
- bring a flashlight.
- bring another flashlight.
- both of you should have at least two flashlights each. the woods are rumored to siphon battery life from certain contraptions.
- bring spare batteries.
- dress warm. even if it’s the middle of july, the woods get colder the deeper you venture.
- make sure both your phones are fully charged. there might be service. you might get lucky.
- do not lose sight of each other.
- do not talk above a whisper. the trees are known to lash out at things they do not like, and they despise loud noises.
- there should always be some sort of noise going on around the two of you (leaves rustling, animals pattering as they walk, water rushing, etc.) if either of you notice everything has suddenly gone silent, do not panic. do not cause a commotion. just keep on walking. do not stop moving. do not look behind you, but keep your ears open. the woods can sense fear, and they prey on it.
- always keep the braver of the two of you in the back. they cannot look behind them at any time lest it has its eyes on you. neither of you can look behind you. keep your head forward and your gaze ahead. do not let your eyes stray from the path.
- the woods hold many secrets. it is best you refrain from finding out the truth. do not go searching for answers. they are annoyed by prying eyes.
- do not lose sight of each other.
- both of you may see flashes of figures in your peripherals. do not look at them. they will not hurt you, but they do not like to be looked at. they are simply curious. mind your own business.
- you may feel eyes on the back of your head. you may feel eyes everywhere around you. they are watching you. do not turn your head to search for them. do not make eye contact with them. they are also curious. mind your own business.
- do not anger it. do not look at it. it is all around you, and the two of you have ventured right into the heart of its territory. there is no guarantee the both of you will make it out alive if you do. be polite. be mindful. be humble. be wary.
- do not lose sight of each other.
- it is best you exit the woods after a few hours of walking. no one knows how long anyone can stay within the trees before they are trapped there for eternity. if you and your partner decide to explore for longer, be mindful you are voluntarily overstaying your welcome and that they might not be happy with you.
- if you see anything questionable, do not go near it. avoid it. walk around it and do not stare. the woods do not appreciate rudeness and criticism. do not look behind you to look at it once you see it for the first time. do not touch it. do not stop walking to inspect it.
- time does not exist in the woods. do not depend on the clock on your phone. it is no longer safe to rely on. nothing is safe to rely on in the woods. keep your cool at all times.
- one of you must stay awake while the other sleeps. you cannot both be asleep at the same time. you may not wake up after. the woods are known to capture sleeping souls. it is recommended the two of you stay awake at all times lest the person who is awake cannot fight it off.
- you may feel a sense of suffocation while you are walking. do not give in. fight off the sense. it will eventually give up.
- do not lose sight of each other.
- if by chance the two of you you get separated, pick up your walking pace. walk in a zigzag path. this confuses the things following you. do not call out for help or for each other. remember that the woods do not like loud noises. do not call attention to yourself. you are now at the mercy of it. from then on, watch every step you take. be swift. you may be able to find a way out if you are quick enough.
- if the two of you make it out alive, go home immediately. do not linger. they will grow restless. they need their privacy. go home. do not return to those woods. they will not be as welcoming the next time.
