Description

The sea bows to him. Not in fear, but in recognition—an understanding that Douglas is no ordinary man, no mere wanderer upon these tides. He is the captain of his own mythology, a black gay pirate adorned in the spoils of his own liberation. Chains hang from his neck as golden testaments to a history rewritten by his own hands. Pearls glisten like captured moons. Silk spills around him, lush as a conquered empire, a vision of Afro-surrealist rebellion painted against the boundless ocean.

The ship is no vessel of conquest, nor does it carry stolen wealth. Instead, it brims with relics of a world that once sought to forget him—ornate lutes, embroidered fabrics, all aglow under the sun like offerings at an altar. A queer, regal inheritance reclaimed. Nautical opulence draping every surface—maritime grandeur reimagined through an Afro-futurist lens. The horizon stretching behind him, endless as his story, its blue expanse whispering of voyages through gay resistance in seafaring history, of empires built not from violence but from beauty itself.

And yet, there is no finality here. No neat conclusion. Only the ceaseless rhythm of waves against wood, the salt-heavy air thick with promise. Douglas does not look at you for permission. This black gay pirate does not ask to be understood. He exists—undeniable, unyielding, unforgotten. A living symbol of queer excellence and seafaring rebellion intertwined.

And I never (ever) using living artist’s names in my prompts. Always referencing artists out of copyright like Kay Nielsen, Botticelli, John Singer Sargent and others. Reimagining the past through a timeless lens that’s only possible because the future is now ✨
