MINT: Part One
Before the whale, there was the cosmos.
Mint is a stoat. Twelve inches of muscle, instinct, and precision — built by a hundred thousand generations of perfect killers. In the Sandri, a vast post-catastrophe forest where nature's rules have been rewritten and predators have grown to nightmare scale, he is at the top of his world.
He wakes. He hunts. He survives. Nothing in the Sandri has ever changed that.
Until the whale.
Three hundred feet of ancient ocean creature, beached and dead — its body erupting with alien plants that glow with a light that has never existed on this planet. Something fell from the cosmos and changed everything it touched. Now a Harpy Eagle with a wingspan that blots out the sky is circling. Something massive came to the tide line in the night and retreated. And Mint, the most dangerous small thing in the forest, stands at the center of it all — every instinct firing at once, none of them telling him to run.
He moves toward it.
In the Sandri, standing still is dying. But what's coming next isn't something you can outrun.
MINT: Part One — the beginning of a dark, relentless fantasy series where the wild things are wilder, the stakes are cosmic, and the smallest predator might be the most important creature alive.

About Ray Aquarius…
Hi, Thanks for coming by,
I'm Ray Aquarius — a visual artist, designer, and creator from Long Beach, CA.
I've been an artist my whole life. It's not something I chose so much as something that chose me. Over the years I've pushed my craft into just about every medium I could find — canvas painting, custom shoe design, apparel art, illustration, graphic design, and writing. Formally trained in graphic design, but the streets, the culture, and the hustle taught me just as much.
In 2002, I gave myself the name Ray Aquarius. It stuck — the way the best things do, unexpectedly and for reasons that are hard to fully explain. Before that I went by a few other names: BoneCrusher, KuroTaiyo, The Specimen. Ray Aquarius outlasted them all.
The things that influence my work are global — culture, human connection, emotion, contrast. I try to capture feelings that are hard to put into words. That's what the art is for. Humans, animals, chaos, beauty, humor, grief — all of it shows up eventually.
I grew up moving around a lot, but Long Beach is home. It's in the work whether I mean it to be or not.

WHAT I DO
I create original canvas art, custom shoe designs, apparel graphics, logos, illustrations, and concept work. I also write — poetry, stories, and narrative concepts for creative projects.
If you want to work together, head to the Commissions page. If you want to own a piece, check out the gallery and the shop. And if you just want to follow along while I build this thing — the YouTube channel is where that lives.
