artwork on display

Even th0ugh it is far away, and it is not a gallery, my work will still be on display (and for sale), at Crunchy Granola Baby in Salem , Mass. at the far away date of June/July 2010

So it has been , far to long since I have posted something. This does in no way shape or form mean I have not been constantly creating art. I have graduated though and since then this is my list of pros and cons.

I will start with the cons first...

-I am broke.-

- I literally am a starving artist.-

- I am still in Bevery which is my

own fault.-

-A lot of friends have moved away.-

-Freedom of assignments is somewhat frustrating.

-I have no one getting on my butt about

time management but myself.-

-Its the real world now.-

- No more studio.-

- My apartment is not as forgiving

to art supplies as my studio was,

neither is cat hair in my printer.-

Now for some pros.

-I have been continuing my senior seminar project.-

- I just got a job as a photography assistant.-

- I just got a second job at the Picture People,

and I will have to suck it up and be happy its work.-

-I have a beautiful 3800 printer.-

-I still have a small community of fellow artists.-

-Theres still hope! -

The Show

The final show turned out great. I have learned I work best under pressure. I have definetly decided I want to continue this body of work, until I feel completely satifisfied that it is finished. Right now graduation is on my mind a lot. I had my final review and learned you have to balance the bad ones out with the good. I am really excited about the upcoming auction this Saturday! I have never been.

Good news! My dad is buying my friend Jeremy's place in Gloucester, at least for the summer. I have never lived with my dad ever. Being this close to him should be interesting for creating a relationship that has yet to really happen. Luckily there is space for a small studio where I can hang some photos. Plus me and Scarlett get a futon there.
