A marker drawing of a yard. Shrubs fill the foreground, partially covering up the cracked stone patio. A small lamp marks the boundary betwen the patio and the grass-filled area. At the edge of the yard, small conifers stand out against the neighbor's metal fence. Large oaks set the backdrop alongside a blue sky.

Waverleclipse · Chord Sketch for Eggbug - Compost #6 [YM2413]

I finally got around to re-uploading this! I originally uploaded this short piece to Cohost as a part of Compost #6, a community challenge to compose a song in one hour.

One hour isn't a lot of time, but it was fun to try! Chords and rhythm - send it. Written in MuSICA for the MSX2, YM2413 only, fade-out added in post. MML under the "read more".

Do it (Again)

I wrote a lament (again), but I wont post it. My heart wasn't even in the right place when I wrote it. Why dwell on the past; Focus on the future (again). The second best time is now.

If I start practicing piano scales (again) starting today, what sorts of cool songs will I play in a year's time? If I start writing (again) starting today, what sorts of stories will I write in a year's time? If I start tearing down the barriers to my happiness (again) starting today, what sorts of joys will I feel in a year's time?

I'm running furiously towards the brighter skies (again). I can't let them bring my spirits down (again). I'm forging my own path (again). I'll make it happen (again). I'll do it (again). I'm here (again). Now (again).

Again.

A drawing of a tree with a severely knotted trunk sitting on the side of a grassy hill, surrounded by a short stack of bricks on the side cutting into the hill. The leaves on the tree are a strange mix of red, brown, yellow, and green. A forest on the other side of the hill serves as the backdrop, with a light blue sky.

A Poem from the Library Help Desk

Sickness settles around me. Where once was just a headache, my bones feel a chill. Standing up gives me a spell of diziness. All my muscles are inflamed. Sometimes when the door aside opens, a chill overcomes my skin. The facemask covering my face digs into my ears, adding to the sense of pressure across all of my systems. And yet, I sit at work.

What else would I be doing? I feel a bit too ill to properly fall asleep, but the mundanity of a night shift makes time drag on forever. I’ve eaten four small meals today: two bowls of cereal, a bagel, and some saltines. The pain in my stomach is ambiguous; did I not eat enough, is this inflamation, are my insides churning for no other reason than to let the digestive system run its course swiftly?

I wore a sweater to work today, though the temperature is above 20c, and yet I feel like I need it. My coworker is away, and I sit alone at the desk. Two laptops are returned, then some headphones. As I struggle, dizzy, feeding the headphones into the UV sanitizer, my manager waltzes out the door, done for the day.

I stumble, madly, into a poetic mood. The world collapses around me. Only my sickly body and the keyboard in front of me remain. How many minutes has it been, when will my coworker return, why am I left alone in this library, this public space, this bastion of knowledge, wasting away as I type?

Hello, 2025! I made bread.

Other than that, I'm only slightly revamping the layout of the site to better accomodate adding non-tumblelog pages. I want to embrace the freedom of the website format and get a little silly with it.

A sketch of a Cardinal (bird). It has long feathers forming a sort of tuft at the top of its head. Its grey wings contrast with the red body, and it has dark feathers around its eyes and beak. It is sitting on a hook in a berry garden.

A sketch of a cardinal. I streamed this piece, so it'll be neat to watch it back and maybe learn from my mistakes.

A digital sketch of Cohost's mascot, Eggbug, with a slightly rough brush.

An eggbug sketch as we sail off into the sunset.

Drawn in Macromedia Flash MX, mid-processed with a brush engine I've been working on, then re-imported back into Flash MX for coloring. Exported to SVG!

I imported two more bird sketches from my tumblr to fill out the content here, backdated to their original posting date. I added the missing alt text descriptions for my images as well.

The pen for my normal drawing tablet is not working at the moment, so I'm going to continue experimenting with using an iPad as a cintiq alternative. The screen resolution over SideCar is so small!

In other news, I've figured out how to combine my retro computing hobby with my art hobby: Macromedia Flash MX, from 2002, running on Windows 2000. I don't usually do lineart, but this is a way to get me practicing with it.

A rough sketch of a chibi-style girl gesturing to some text which reads: 'Hi! This is a digital sketch done in Macromedia Flash!'. The program window is visible framing the image.

A rough sketch of a Common Raven. It is looking to the side, showcasing its narrow head compared to the comparatively thick and long beak. One wing is raised slightly as if it has just landed or is about to take off.

Testing out pixquare.

Yay another bird sketch!

A sketch of a Black Billed Magpie. It is looking off to the side, standing on a wooden post. It has blue and grey accent colors on its wings, and a fluffy chest.

A sketch of an Altamira Oriole. It is clinging to some short branches near the top of a tree. Its body is a nice orange while its wings are dark with white stripes.

I've been doing ~~daily~~ every other day bird sketches and dumping them on tumblr. I figured I might as well start putting them up here as well. Here's day five, the Altamira Oriole.

A sketch of an Acorn Woodpecker. It appears to be in flight, wings spread wide open as it looks offscreen. It is a darker color, with lighter splotches on its wings. It looks like it has a hat because the top of its head is red.

Today's bird is the Acorn Woodpecker.

A sketch of an Acadian Flycatcher. It is standing on a branch, head turned such that it is looking towards its tail. It looks like a small bird, with striped wings and a fluffy brighter colored chest.

Today I sketched an Acadian Flycatcher.
