Personal

I create pixel art...

For example, here is a set I made for scenes:

City
Field
Glacier
Mountain
Swamp

Here is a set I made for my favorite history Youtube Channel Extra History:

Admiral Yi
Bolivar
Mali
Irish Famine
Joan of Arc

Sometimes, I put it in 3D, with fusion beads or M&Ms:

MLK Portrait
For a Wine Fundraiser, edible in M&Ms on cookies
For Ukraine Fundraiser

I write poetry...

For example, here is an acrostic White Rose (a type of poem where the first letter of each line spells out a word when read vertically):

During the season of cold and darkness,
Every man and woman sits beside their hearth.
Covered in snow, a seed grows in hopefulness,
Eagerly awaiting the coming spring.
Many days pass in growing melancholy,
Buried dreams encased in a solid frost.
Even though hope has passed, the sun still rises,
Rising and stirring the thought of spring again.


Journeying east with the birds is the sun.
A tiny green sprout peeks out of the snow,
Not knowing when the ice will melt away.
Unsuitable chilly breezes still blow,
Aptly reflecting the length of the night.
Resting below the ground, the seed yet waits,
Yule passing into warmer days, awaits the white rose.

I love history...

especially Swedish history. Here's a lesson I put together for a friend:

I also procrastina-doodle...
