Today, I am pleased to add earthSista SepiaAngel has stepped up to the role of Editor here in Pangea’s Garden. Sepia has been an avid participant and contributor here since her debut in September of last year. She calls herself “a wife, mother, sister, granddaughter, aunt, friend, model and creative soul.” She is also a student of the Graphic Arts and true cultivator of the culture of Afrosensual beauty. Sepia has chronicled her explorations into her own afrosensuality, here in the Garden. She has been a muse to artistic photographer Remy the ECCENTRICsoul. And together they...

“Roommates” It was an erotic story I wrote last Spring, When I sat down with Nala and remy the ECCENTRICsoul to plan our shoot, we decided to build a visual concept around my story. We were going to take an artistic interpretation the story with me as a writer toiling away with the story, Nala as my manifested imagination, and Remy behind the lens being the “eyes” of the male character by creating a series of dramatic images.  However, it ended up being more of a celebration of our diverse and natural Black beauty. The contrast of our lovely natural crowns, the shades of our brown...

Coming this week in the Garden… New earthSista Nala’s makes her debut in the earthSista Q&A. Inspired by the vision of the Garden and works of Remy the ECCENTRICSoul, the young beauty worked with the artistic photographer to create a beautiful set of images. Look for it soon. PhysiqueAE1 is SUCCESS now! Look forward to her commentary on taking time to take care of self. The male star in Scottie Lowe’s tale “At Last,” is the earthBrotha Eros (the first official earthBrotha.) He will share some informative commentary and provocative imagery on the art and pleasure...

In the end its all about passion… Maybe, to be more specific, its about the liberation of passions. For so many its not easy to express rage, faith extreme sadness or joy as they are motivated fires within us that we hide deeply inside so that no one else can touch them. And in the process we lose touch ourselves. Recently, SepiaAngel collaborated with the EccentricSoul to create an intense set of striking captures. (Check them out by clicking here.) In her commentary on the experience she said, “It was about creating art through my emotions. I thought this would be a difficult feat...

by SepiaAngel On Sunday, September 26, I battled busy Tampa traffic to get to this photo shoot. I knew that I was ready, but this particular shoot was everything that I didn’t imagine in a good way. Little did I know that this was going to start my manifestation and liberation with a tall, brilliant, humorous man by the name of remy the ECCENTRICsoul. One of the personal struggles that I had going into the shoot was not being blunt about my own sensuality and sexuality. Ironically, I write about these things in my short stories and poetry, but couldn’t be truthful about my own. I listened...

Part two of the 3-part series on the EccentricSoul. This time we focus on cool. Dramatic contrasts of shadows and light, splashes of colour and attitude. These are the characteristics that are common in his works and they are not unusual tools for producing images for fashion editorial work and when you look at what Remy does you see the roots of a fashion editorial approach. But then he does that Remy thing. That step of creative discovery and collaboration with his muse where they both stretch, reach and find the inner passion that adds depth, strength and fragility to an expression that is...

He says he’s an EccentricSoul with a vision. And from his imagination he tells stories of the unseen.  Indeed. As an artist of photography, Remy constantly, seeks to elevate himself creatively by stepping outside of his fine art comfort zone and manifesting his style for fashion and couture. And he seeks out women and men who DARE to step outside the box with him. All of his models agree that when they work with him, he definitely takes their ports to another level. Remy employs colours in their vivid and primary forms. He exploits their richness to enhance the passion in his captures....
