Hello. Its been a while I know.




I had an interesting weekend. I will spare you the ugly parts and stick to the cool parts. I got to go with my fience to a reptile show; My first one ever I might add. It was pretty enlightening. I got to see cool little things like these...
























Arent they beautiful. I'm still not keen on the snakes but some of them are really beautiful. While I was with these beautiful creatures I got to meet some of their really great handlers and owners. Jeff Littlejohn is a guy who breeds skinks(not skins. so sorry about that) but also does incredible art work. Go here to see it. jefflittlejo.googlepages.com
I got to my point in a round about way but those beautiful creatures have inspired me so I felt it important to share with you all.

I've started my classes this semester and I think I'm going to like them alot. I'll have some work from them to put up here soon.

This piece I posted a while ago but I've cropped it so it looks better and is easier to see. Its all I have to share for now.

I'm getting antsy.
I need to be improving and promoting. They both kind of depend on each other though. I need to improve to have things that people will be interested in and I need to be promoting so people will know me. Time is my enemy at present.
I do have a new Myspace for my art. Check it out! www.myspace.com/breathingroomforthesoul

My evacuation routes project is going pretty well. It got off to a slow start but I'm half way done with them and my boss is really liking what I'm doing. I couldn't be happier.

Check back for new photos of my art.

First Art Related Job

I was unofficially hired yesterday as a designer for the Snu alert department at my university. I will be drawing maps of each building to be posted and used in case of an emergency to access esscape routes.
Its a start and I'm very greatful.

These are some stamps that I designed in my Vector and Raster class a year ago. I was never able to get them posted. There are alot about these that I would change now if I had the chance, but I still like them. Its just a begining.

Babies

This was my first attempt at drawing babies. They are very different from kids and adults.

Frida

Frida Kahlo was an amazing artist.

I really admire her honesty and the feelings that she put into her work. I think that if I were to compare myself with any artist it might be her. Not that I am at a point in my art where I am as developed stylisticly as she, but the feeling of her art resonates with me.I just wanted to take time to recognize her.
