I photograph of 11 crayons I made. They are lined up on a table. They have names carved into the left side of each. They are named after the pigments used to make them. On the top are 3 that say gilsonite, followed by a D, M, and an L indicating that they have dense, medium, and light use of pigment in them (and they appear darker the more pigment used). They all appear nearly black. Below that are 4 crayons that say PG23. This is a type of pigment made from green colored soil, called green earth. The top 2 also say ancient, and the one below says mix and finally the bottom says cypress. The names just indicate the different sources and that I mixed them together to make a blend between the two colors. They all appear muted earthy greens. Lastly there are 4 crayons that are sparkly and iridescent. The top 2 say gilsonite bronze and the bottom two say gilsonite gold. These are a mix of gilsonite and different mica formulations.

A fisheye image of the last hurrah at Las Vegas Furcon 2025. In the image the party host has his hand in the air, calling out that the party, and the con are about to end (just before 2 am monday morning) Here is an excerpt from my essay on furrycon room parties: I managed to capture some of the celebration at the very end of the convention. These events are happening mere hours before the 11am checkout time on Monday Morning. A quite literal last hurrah of the night, a celebration to the inevitable end of the convention and the transformations that have happened. The intense atmosphere of this moment stands with me. There was such a strong sense of the end, something this is encroaching. In the furry fandom this is called post con depression, it is a distinctly sad feeling, a pit in one's stomach, that is accompanied at the end of a furry convention. It is the feeling that you want this to last forever and you are faced with the inevitability that it must end. I find it amazing and quite interesting that there was a lingering sense at that moment to keep going as long as possible. We collectively avoid the tasks that are to come, we avoid the fact that this entire party space needs to be returned to the state of being a hotel room in just a few hours.

A photograph of a furry party at Las Vegas Furcon. The party was called Electric Oasis and was in Room 2607. The photo was taken at 12:32AM on April 20th, 2025. There is a DJ booth to the left and and several fursuiters dancing on the right.I do not know the identity of the people dancing. The photo is circular and has a warped perspective. This photo is a type of photo called a fisheye that has a warped perspective, it shows a very wide field of view that is collapsed into a circular image.
