I hope to continue to improve. I own my identity, my history, my flaws and feats.
Every bit of that has shaped me into who I am today, and I am proud of me.
I'm incredibly thankful to my friends and chosen family for supporting me and guiding me. I wouldn't be me without them.
Becoming Cor was my first real step in accepting myself for who I am.
My first step in self-autonomy.
Accepting my bisexuality. Accepting that I didn't have to do what others expected of me. Realizing that my thoughts, desires, and goals are valid.
These are the first renderings of Cor, from May of 2012.
The artist was a highschool friend of mine. I've never had a ref sheet of Cor made, but I always refer back to these original pieces first.
Cor is me, I am Cor.
Cor is not a character; but a representation of my self. 💜
