STARTS OF ARTS

So here's some arts! This is like a 40 inch by 30 self plaid portraaaait. Focusing on simple portrait narrative things, doing one of Cal scratchin his head and one of Leah as John Henry's woman, Polly Ann, to come later.

we had just listened to/seen/experienced? a janet cardiff sound piece called the murder of crows, it completely blew me away, i sat outside in a daze thinking about it and i saw this little landscape in my wine. it was such a dream

incredible antiques store in berlin, hidden in the back of an little compartmented building. place was about twice the size of what you can see here, so small, i bought an awesome compass with eye glass attachments and a little leather box to keep it in. 

best restaurant ever...pigeon english version of "hole in wall." smelled horrible in there but the food was SO AWESOME yayyyy berlin, thanks for the cheap beer 

hanging out with castles in cannes

takin pitchers for my final big painting. this was our fist sunny awesome day where i could wear a dress with no leggings and no schweaters!

for my figure class we were assigned to paint a 4 foot by 3 foot ish painting focusing on appendages. stefi's hands and my pigeon feet

me dancin around in my favorite pants (owned also in charcoal gray yesssss). there are elastic bands that cinch around each ankle, thus determining these are pants and not a dress. that's my clarification for you, dad.
