This was honestly a bit dark, even for me, but this time, with the vivid imagery I remembered that night, and the meager skills that I have, I want to paint an uncompromising message regarding common urban problems that we all can work together towards solving them ourselves.

(I intend to make this as a sort of series of drawings with a connected theme. I don't know how that's gonna work but let's see.)

Later down the line though, I started drawing more characters. With each mindless stroke being a mistake, and me doubling back and drawing more which ironically made it even more of a mistake, I ended up with a cast that I wasn't even sure or confident about.

Call them The Randoms, I guess.

I heard that the Rust programming language is celebrating its 10th year in stability, so, given its popular mascot Ferris the Crab, I figured, why not draw them?

So I did.

My basis actually was Mt. Mayon. My drawing skills pale in comparison to its natural beauty. Come check it out for yourself if you can.

I BOTCHED THE LEGSSS!!!

I am so sorry this picture is shot against the light, but I love how it looks.

Maybe one day I'll just learn how to draw different elements and put them together in a single work, and hopefully it sticks and it looks great together...

I've used a reference this time, but beyond that, I simply just want to draw what I love correctly and accurately. And maybe that's the first step into anything beautiful, especially when what I'm drawing is just that beautiful and meaningful for me.

Soon enough, it'll be the rain.

This is a personal favorite of mine. After all this time, I've always loved drawing clouds in the past 129 days that I've been drawing, and now I want to do it scientifically.

Nothing in my time at the University, in all of its deliberate oldness and tradition, could replicate the value of the fleeting, natural novelty this situation brought to my eyes and my senses.

As the curtain closes on my time here, truly...

Thank you.

We're not in Japan, but I wasn't expecting something like that to actually happen.

It was deeply mesmerizing. A tranquil moment that quietly captured my mind even for just an instant.

A short, indifferent movement of nature brought about a moment as beautiful as this...

As if the heat became the least bothersome thing in that short moment, the wind carried forth a new serenity, both in the coolness it carried, but also the sight that it brought.

It's as if we had our own cherry blossoms blooming, but this time, it's orange leaves from the trees, blown by the wind.
