Big Chop Day
This is another piece I made for my Introduction to Visual Arts class! I really enjoy using colored pencils and crayons to make abstract art. It makes me feel free from any expectations of perfection. This piece is meant to depict the day I decided to cut off my locs. It wasn’t a particularly sadContinue reading “Big Chop Day”
Songs That Influenced Me
This is a list of songs that have honestly affected what kind of music I listen to and the music that I create. This list is subject to change, so I may or may not make an updated version, but I just wanted to share the songs that have inspired me. I hope you enjoyedContinue reading “Songs That Influenced Me”
Not A Star
I want to be a moonNot a star Stars burn brightBut can’t get too close Moons pull oceansAnd laugh with the stars above The sun may bring comfortAnd merciless warmth But the moon can seeWhat a sun cannotIn the dark

These were for an art project I was doing in my Intro to Visual Arts class last year. They don’t hold any special meaning, but I got to experiment with clay art, which is an art I would love to do sometime again soon. The flower is a paperweight, and the star is meant toContinue reading “Clay Art”
A Mountain in Hokkaido
This is my first time doing a piece like this outside of an art class! I used crayons which was a bit difficult because I wasn’t sure how to blend it. I ended up using Vaseline which made it look 10 times better. I have started getting in the habit of seeing where I haveContinue reading “A Mountain in Hokkaido”
Bedroom Sketches
Here are some sketches I did in my bedroom to practice drawing using references! I usually use images of different K-pop idols when I do this, but sometimes I’ll just use any image I see on the internet. I will show the sketch as well as the reference I used for it. I hope toContinue reading “Bedroom Sketches”

K-pop Groups That Hooked Me! Pt. 4
Continuing from where we left off last time: KiiiKiii: I first heard about their interesting and abnormal concept on YouTube. It gives me “girl next door” vibes. At first, I thought their concept wasn’t going to stand out much to me because it didn’t have a concrete theme, something I see often in 5th-generation K-popContinue reading “K-pop Groups That Hooked Me!
