Tonight, I leave for a 12 day cross country expedition by train to see the country and do some quality adventuring. This trip has been in the making for quite awhile now, with first plans being spontaneously made during lunch last semester to see Mt. Rainier. Now, I’m off to Washington to do just that, … More One Big Ol’ Adventure
At first glance, this abstract piece may seem to be rooted in a (what we may call) a true reality, something that is grounded in previous, valid experiences. However, at second glance, we can see that the artist has expanded upon what we initially perceive as “true” into something that is “untrue,” or, exactly what … More Opus 3
In this piece, the artist draws upon their knowledge of amphibious creatures to recreate what is, arguably, the the most poorly drawn lizard in existence. Nevertheless, this may have been an aesthetic choice. The lizard, like the rest of us, has two eyes, a tongue, and thoughts (here represented by the miscellaneous shapes and colors). … More Opus 2
This is the artist’s very first piece in this expressive series, and denotes the genesis of expression and feelings through the digital medium which is, of course, Microsoft Paint. The artist’s choice to portray two creatures interacting in this scene really encapsulates the overall genre of it, namely, that of the subtle innocence involved with social … More Opus 1
*flips an egg without getting any of the leakies all over the stove* *Nice* I can not ignore the fact that I, did, in fact, set off the fire alarm in my apartment after an (apparantely) smokey cooking sesh with some potatoes and chicken, a current staple. My dinner every day (which I always wholesomely … More Beethoven and Burritos
Sure, living in the moment can be healthy. However, pretending that the world is going to end in 5 minutes every half an hour can be taxing. I need to find a balance. One of my dear plants, Ramshackle, has died after getting sick. It was painful to watch, but I know that I did … More Bringing Flowers to a Plant Funeral
Well, well, well. Three wells. Three very deep, very dark wells. Three coins. Three wishes. That’s enough for me. I have officially started an Adventure Fund. Meaning, I have plans. BIG PLANS. Well, big enough, I suppose. I always manage to have plans that are much larger than I expected. I’m not sure if that … More Birds, Semen Trees, and A Stray Duck
And I swear to you, I saw the universe in my bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch that afternoon, and it was beautiful. Cereal for dessert really isn’t a bad deal, all things considered. I woke up this morning to find blood on my shirt. Only after seeing the dense stains of blood on my blankie did … More The Localized Explosion of 1000 Small Harmonicas
*turns on brain faucet* *drip* *drip* *drip* *turns off brain faucet* A build-up of ideas in the brain causes pressure. Text yourself to set reminders. Not only are you reminded, but you get the satisfaction of receiving a message from yourself, which is always a nice surprise. I would turn on the vibration notification, it … More Resonating Chords and The Brain
*taps mic* *it is most certainly on* *throw it into the abyss* *it actually has a cord attached to it, so it only kinda makes it into the abyss,,, it’s just sort of dangling there* *the screams from the abyss are now amplified* Excellent. Wellwellwell,,, I honestly think that the triple comma thing … More From the Plant Alchemist
