Yeah Right, I get it. You always have to be right. Well, you know what? You can write the right-handed way and you can act righteously like you are right now. But that doesn’t make you right, you got it? Alright. - Sappy

The Sound of Falling Leaves
It’s hard to say that there is still no first Snowfall in Michigan. As an out of state student from Colorado, they experienced lots of snow this past week, and looking through my friends’ from back home posts, I can confidently say that I am so jealous. I captured this image of the beautiful law quad while walking on a chilly day. While I can see the leaves on the ground surrounded by the architecture of the law quad, I can also see a visual symphony, where each unique element in this picture represents a musical phrase. To me, the bare branches of the trees represent the staff lines on a musical piece, with each fallen leave being a single note.
architectureThe center of this image shows the law quad, and it acts as the steady and elegant beats of the music. The rich details in architecture as well as the arch, evokes a harmony that goes beyond a simple melody. It is complex and raw, with the arch welcoming people in to the creativity warm sounds. In this orchestra, I envision the warm colors of the fall leaves as a cello, with its rich tones bringing to life Fall’s beauty.
I am reminded of the piece Cello Sonata in G minor Movement III Chopin. This beautiful piece is a duet with the cello and piano, and its sounds combine together to form a haunting yet heartwrenching piece. The cello stands out to me as the soloist, and moves the notes in a legato way to emphasize the connectedness of the notes. In this way, the Univeristy of Michigan’s campus becomes a symphony, emphasized by the sound of falling leaves.

Critter Comix Week One!
Hi guys! I’d like to introduce my original comic featuring these silly guys :). Hope you enjoy! I am planning on making an almost slice-of-life style comic with them. The main character is the brown cat, her name is mur, and you’ll probably be seeing her the most, but I’ll add more characters as time goes on! Like the dog (his name is Keys).
A Side of Sketching – Study Sessions
With it being exam season, this week I’ve drawn a little point-of-view sketch inspired by all of the late-night study sessions I’ve been having in my dorm lately. I’ve always enjoyed doing point-of-view sketches; even though the perspective in this one is quite unrealistic, these sketches offer a great opportunity to practice drawing people and characters interacting with their surroundings instead of my typical drawings of characters existing in front of their environment. Overall, I really did enjoy this sketch and I’m happy with the result : )

Have Some Manners Being witty can be kind of shitty, but being shitty is not witty. Someone not witty, not necessarily shitty, is a dumbass. Someone shitty, not necessarily witty, is a smartass. I know that being dumb is bad and being smart is good. Still, I’d rather be a dimwit with shitty wit, than be a witty shit, who’s a piece of shit. - Sappy
