Things Ive decided
1. I'll be making a Game Boy game (accessible tools)
2. It'll be light rpg
3. It'll have battle mechanics like Pokemon Red/Blue
4. Exploring dungeons will be a big part of it

A hyperfixation to make a pixel game has crept into my head and I can't stop thinking about how it's all I've ever wanted to do in life since Friday night at 1045 when I saw a YouTube video about gameboy homebrew

My study in Sargent (25 cool points if anyone gets that reference) is done, while not 1:1 it did teach me a lot in the process and I'll be tackling another here soon

I've been practicing wet into wet painting via studies of Sargents work
It's slow going, his mark making is not intuitive to my academic methods.
Still fun

I looked into planning a what if of changing my major
I'll always be a painter
But philosophy does challenge me in certain ways
I'd be playing catch up in languages, logic, and some 100 lvl courses but it's doable
That being said I'd be there 1 extra semester at least

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.
When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

A person told me today that because of me they know far too much about the Zorn Palette when they’re not even an artist
“Yes yes Zorn, I know, and I shouldn’t”
