Maybe you know my real name or maybe you don’t. Either way, it doesn’t matter because I’m forever changing. I’m literally a shapeshifter, meaning I tend to change identities often. You know, just mutable Sagittarius things, particularly in the 9th and 10th house.
But for the sake of normality here is the bio that I’ve written for myself: my name is Pia and I am an artist, graphic/web designer/web dev/marketer living & working in Los Angeles, California, USA. I work in the online/virtual adult entertainment industry (my day job aka my 9 to 5) doing a combination of these things; I’m sort of a creative ‘jack of all trades, master of none’ kind of person. I’m also an introvert but can be an ambivert when necessary.
I realize now that I am a workaholic (if the work is creative of course), it’s all I do; my Sagittarius sun, Neptune and Venus are all in my 10th house, with my Midheaven in Scorpio. It doesn’t help that I also live in a HCOL state. When I am not working, I am pondering my life, my inevitable death and the nature of the universe or creating through art, design, writing and sharing it on this blog of mine. This blog simply exists for my personal expression and enjoyment, I do not make money off of it.
Other than that, I don’t know how to describe myself or this blog but it’s a mix of everything that I’m into – it’s simply a record of my past, present, future and parallel endeavors. But if I had to label myself, I guess you can say I am an occultist. If you really want to get to know me, then this is the place where I share my inner world. I have nothing to offer but my own experiences.
I am always learning something new and so I am always editing this About page. That’s the beauty of the web isn’t it? Being able to edit things and call ourselves a ‘work in progress’.

I’ve discovered along the way that I’m also interested in marketing, entrepreneurship, social media, web design/development, small business development, making money online, creating passive income streams; as most of these are part of what I do at my job so it only makes sense to apply these things to my personal interests as well.
This blog revolves around my personal experience with these subjects. I only represent my thoughts and opinions here, and if I am sharing someone else’s work I do my best to credit the source.
A few of my friends still know me as SHERM, from my days as a graffiti artist.
shermgrafik.com was my old domain, and I no longer own it. Content warning: you may or may not see an explicit landing page.
Why did I name the site “Save the Savages”? The title came from an old painting I did, here.
If you are interested in buying crystals & stones, browse my online only crystal shop on Etsy: Metaphysical Vibes. I also accept PayPal if you see something you like, just hit me up on Instagram.
