oops...

So today at work I got to go home early... only to get stuck in the parking lot. I went to make a U-turn and slid down the hill.

Thank God I have a burly roommate and there are some awesome boys at my school. They pushed my car uphill and saved my day!

The ladies in the office said they laughed at me until they realized the car had California license plates and it was me inside.

One of the ladies informed me, "Don't drive or park in ice."

Words to live by?

not to get what we can from life."

Abolish Three Strikes Poster

It dawned on me...

And I am still doing the same imagery. Over and over. I'm trying to break out of it and I got a lot of wise words from multiple sources. So I have been working on these little portrait series when I am too busy to print.

Project!

Two book project with Jan!

Jan sent me the most delightful package with two books inside. She had decorated one and requested that I decorate the other.

I'm very excited about this and so happy that Jan thought of me.

As for this semester I am going to have a lot of projects to balance with writing papers.

I am applying for a show that will set up in a parking garage structure downtown for one night.

I also wanted to make some small books since my class last semester was more about going past the standard book structure and all the sophomores are running around making these awesome books.

I have a lot of ideas for prints and I grained my arm so sore I had to take pills for it (which has never happened before, but I have also never tried to knock out three stones in a couple of hours... I usually space them out.)

I have my camera and I am going to try to keep my work updated more often so I can get some advice from my friends.

Advice and critiques ALWAYS welcome.

Mmmm....

Bottle of Strong Arms from Jan, Christmas, 2009

I miss you and love you Jan!

One semester down, Three to go!

Just to catch you up I thought I would post some of my work from last semester. They are random pictures from cards I made to prints from the middle and end of the semester.
