โ Hi! I'm an ornithologist, biologist, birdwatcher, and artist. โ
โ Also a master's student in Alaska, studying Rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta). โ
โ I live for birds! I love birdwatching and I prepare birds for museum collections. โ
โ Obsessed with anything lime green, spicy, and/or bird-related. โ
โ Traditional tools of the trade: Copic markers, Micron ink, oil-based colored pencils โ
โ Digital tools of the trade: XP Pen 24 Pro, Paint Tool Sai 2 โ
โ My gallery is SFW and mostly digital. โ
โค My main sona is Skoryx the oryx (Oryx gazella). โค
โค Rain or shine, you can find him outside with his binoculars and camera, looking for birds. โค
โค After a long day in the field, he likes to unwind by sketching and listening to music. โค
Skoryx's faves on Spotify
โค He's happy to tour you around his lab space, though he keeps his workstation haphazard. โค
โค (See the open bag of spicy chips on his bench, right below the "no food or drink allowed" sign.) โค
โค At night, you can find him in the library intensely focused on his studies. โค
โค He'll occasionally glance up, scanning for cute boys to admire. โค
โค He has a thing for nerdy guys with dark hair and thick glasses. =:P โค

*CRASHES INTO A DOORWAY AND DROPS MY GLASSES*
Ow... urgh... I forgot the clearance of the library basement doorway is lower than on the upstairs level.
Phew... okay... uh... where was I? Oh, yeah!
โ Oryxes have long horns! โ
โ If you decide to draw him and you think the horns are long enough, make them twice as long! โ
โ Sometimes I comment emotes like =:) or =:3. Those are just regular smileys but with horns added. โ
โ If you like my sona, you can see more art of him here: โ

โ I made my fursuit and 3D-printed his horns. โ
โ If you ever see some long horns at a convention, it might be me! โ

I made it to Alaska!
7 months ago
I spent the last few weeks packing up, traveling, and unpacking at my new apartment here in Alaska. I drove from Tulsa to Fairbanks in my little Toyota Prius, and it was a trip that spanned over 3,600 miles. It was a beautiful drive! Lots of wildlife like bears, elk, deer, and caribou on the road. The worst parts were that there were steep slopes, sections of the road that were unpaved, and lots of potholes.
I start school as a master's student this Monday. I'm studying biology and will be working in a bird lab making study skins; bird taxidermy but for science instead of display! For the next two years, I'll be swamped. You will probably not see me posting much over the next two years, so if I'm quiet, that's why! I still hope to draw when I have free time and will try my best to find some furry friends here in the middle of nowhere. I'm looking forward to taking photos of myself in my suit when there's snow outside!
