Welcome
This is the official dwelling place for the words and images of Madyson Blair's series of novels The Weather Inside.
Hello! My name is Madyson Blair. I’m an author and artist currently in the process of bringing my dark fantasy novel to life. In my work, I strive to blur the lines between the often clichéd forces of good and evil by way of exploring the mysticism of the human psyche. My hope is to provide my readers/viewers with a transformative experience from the inside out.
For me, The Weather Inside is more than just a project-in-progress, it is my personal myth. It is not merely a story to be told, but a mystery to be solved. It seizes me, creating powerful ecstasy that imbues every single day of my life with magic. I have surrendered to its beauty and its vastness and am utterly devoted to recording it on paper with the intention of capturing it in the very best possible way. Though the prose is not yet ready to share with the world, I enjoy offering glimpses into its depths by way of my psychologically stirring illustrations.

'Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.
Who looks outside dreams; who looks inside awakes.'
~Carl Jung
'It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.'
~Joseph Campbell
Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths.'
~Joseph Campbell
'There is a very dark and painful side to life, but that is natural. People in our culture think they should never be unhappy. They think that being unhappy is unnatural. They try to make it go away. They take pills or they go to therapy to "fix" themselves. They blame themselves or others for their suffering. We need to understand that sadness is as much a part of life as joy. It would be easy just to get bitter and cold while focusing on the dark side, but there is also an amazing, wonderful side of life. If you look for it, there is true magic all around us. Maybe that sounds trite to the hardened, self-protective modern ego, but there is magic in this miraculous life. If you open yourself up, you do make yourself vulnerable to pain but the deeper the pain you experience, the deeper joy you have.'
