Hello Newgrounders! Hope you have enjoyed your weekend. Its been not very great presidents day weekend for me, but thats a story for another time. Let's keep that positivity flowing!

I had a short visit with extended family and had the opportunity to meet my youngest brother's girlfriend who is in law school and got her to sit down for a quick portrait:

I like how I am progressing in art school. If you are wonder I am self-studying under Marc Brunet who used to work as a senior artist at Blizzard. The courses are expensive, but I think worth it, and some progress is beginning to show. Should only take me about another two years to catch up to everyone else here. Progress is slow-- but sure. :)

I finished some music for the NewGrounds Beat Saber Collab. I really REALLY want to share what I made-- but it has to stay all hush hush right now. As far as when that Collab will be be completed it should be sometime after April. I think I am the only person to have finished their assignment. Based on the WIPs I have heard though from the other people working in the collab... if you like BeatSaber and love electronic music-- you are going love what we got coming down the pipe. :D

I have nothing to report on the Bastardized Rainbow Brite Project. Its currently only a passion project of mine and as far as passion projects go its in bits and spurts and still being (re?)storyboarded.

Speaking of Passion projects... I really enjoyed my time working on the beatsaber thing and wanted to try my hand at making a NewGrounds Happy Hardcore/DnB Music compilation Collab CD/Thing/whatever. I am unfortunately unsure as to what level of experience I need to be and how well known I need to be as well. I used to help run a small record label LLC and am familiar with CD printing companies, and people willing to do professional mastering-- but thats about it.

If you know how these things work around here, please PM me. I appreciate it. We need more happiness in our lives now more then ever and it is ever fleeting and being gobbled up by overactive neurons in our brains. Music Heals.

Also, holy crap, this is my favorite thing right now and it should be yours too!:

Keep it moving-- work those pens, paper and tablets and headphones, oh my! :O

Your Pal,

YendorNG :)
