Aww it’s a kiwi :3

I didn’t even know I needed this in my life!

Aw he’s a kiwi and so am I :’)

OH MY GOD ALBINO KIWI WHAAAAT <333

what is that he’s eating

is it raw flesh? it looks like raw flesh

do not be fooled, ladies and gentlemen, by his pillowy demeanor

he only uses his tuftiness to lure you closer

So, for my art show next week I have been reviewing a lot of the stuff I have been and making minor adjustments for size and such, but when I got to these two posters I felt the need to give them a heavy duty makeover, while keeping the same layout.  It is crazy to think that it was just over a year ago that I started design classes, and it is even crazier to think that I have actually improved both technically and visually over that time.

The originals can be seen here and here

" Suzuki Roshi used to say that what was needed most in the monastery were people who were good at cleaning out the corners. The most perverting ideas are the ones that lie for years and years in the dark corners of our mind. Like spiders, they creep out while we are sleeping and spin their webs of illusion. Only when the mind is clean, in order, and uncluttered can the present moment be fully realized. If we hang onto past memories, trophies of our good-old-days, in time our mind and our home will be a museum instead of a place to encounter the present reality. The relationship between house cleaning, garden cleaning, and mental caretaking is not just symbolic. It is very direct.

" Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.’ We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

so often do I feel inadequate
