[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled "immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]

a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”

#dinosaur #evolution #comic #prehistoric #animal #wildlife #paleontology #biology #poetry #comics #original #my art #archaeopteryx has no direct living descendants i know #but i wanted something aerial and the dinosaur to bird connection is classic and well known anyway #also the chicken over any other bird is very on purpose #its the mix of truth and comedy and genuineness and the fantastic in the mundane #its me asking you to see something so wonderful in something taken so un-seriously #and to love it both ways #also the jurassic park thing #where someone saw the reconstructed gait of a dino #and said. hey hang on. i know that walk.#and pulled up footage of a chicken walking #which jumpstarted the entire study into the link between dinosaurs and birds #in the end take whatever you want from it i just thought id provide some insight #i always like it when other artists do #the point is that i enjoy when people laugh at the end and when they dont #and i like it when they cry. i like it best when they both laugh and cry. eeaao intent #anyway mourn your losses but to live is to change #also hi guys i finally figured out tipping after 5 months so no more annoying ko-fi link

Diversifying my video making skills - Screensharing

Breakthrough in versatility for video editing and recording slide deck from Canva template over Loom from a Zoom call

I cheekily presented a slide deck I’d made in Canva from a template and uploaded my own images and found it on Lucy Griffith’s archives. Loom allows you to share links to videos in Loom, which is really useful for quickly showing someone how to do something. That is something I have an interest in doing. Screensharing is something I’ve been trying to do since 2020 when I signed up to Test.io to…

Day 28: Happy National Poetry Month!

It’s almost the end of National Poetry Month. I’ve ended up with almost fifty pages of poetry! I finished my little epic “Where the Sidewalk Ends”, which means I’ll start putting together the book next month. it will have many of the poems I’ve written here in it. I’ve nearly figured out how to illustrate it, too. I finished the cover the other day. Not to mention, I broke out of my writing…

DVF - Diane Von Furstenburg

Diane Von Furstenburg Portrait in store

Born on December 31st, 1946, Diane Von Furstenburg is a Belgium-born designer that is most well known for her creation of the iconic wrap dresses.

Diane bloomed in the fashion industry as a model, then found her passion in designing. Starting off with basic items, Diane designed t-shirts, shirt dresses, etc. She then created the wrap dress which she debuted with in 1974. Known for their chic look and convenience, to say the least, the wrap dress was a hit! As more women were entering the workforce, it was acceptable for women to start wearing trousers for functional reasons. However, the wrap dress was extremely functional, comfortable, and fashionable. Due to these pros, Diane sold over 5 million wrap dresses in the first few years after its debut.

Diane Von Furstenburg became a role model to many women. Whom looked at Diane for inspiration for fashion related business and even non-fashion related business.

Dress on display in store

The Diane Von Furstenburg store located on Washington st, NYC, had so many iconic dresses and art works on display. As soon as you step foot into the store, you are greeted with so many pieces of art, as well as, a room on the side for live poetry. Even the stairs leading to the second floor of the store was a work of art itself.

Stairs leading to the second floor of the store

Extremely colorful and abstract stairs with neon lights and art pieces posted on the walls. Additionally, inside the store, there was a photo booth for anyone to stop by and take pictures. The mirrors and displays inside were unbeatable.

There was a very interesting thing in the DVF store that I would have never expected.

Projector projecting Virtual Fashion

It was very interesting to see snippets of these virtual fashion shows that were being projecting inside of the store. There was an employee monitoring the projectors and changing up the clips from time to time.

I really enjoyed my visit at the DVF store. There was so much that caught my eye and made me think,

"I would love this in my room..."

From the dresses on the mannequins to the works of art posted on the wall, everything was so unique and aesthetically pleasing. Thinking my visit would only last a few minutes, I was prepared to snap a few shots and head out, but I stayed in the store for about 20 minutes just really appreciating the layout and the art that the DVF store is.

I would love to visit again to try out the photo booth, or maybe treat myself to an iconic Diane Von Furstenburg wrap dress one day.
