What I Wore: 6.27.08
Saturday, June 28th, 2008Yesterday, I pulled out my prized Michael Jackson shirt. I’ve had it for a few years and barely wear it because I’m afraid of ruining it.

What I Wore: 6.21.08
Sunday, June 22nd, 2008
I was going for a 60s stewardess look yesterday. I just got my hair trimmed and I always beg my hairdresser to give me a bouffant, but my hair is so stick straight that no amount of back combing and hairspray can keep the ‘hive up!
Saint-Tropez shirt, Urban Outfitters
Navy wool skirt, Banana Republic (my aunt’s friend […]

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008It’s easy to get caught up in what other people have, what they’re doing, who they know, what they’re wearing, what they look like and what’s being said about them. But, as you’ve no doubt already figured out, comparing yourself to others will get you nowhere.
Because of our fast-paced, instant access lifestyles filled with […]

Black & White Graphic Insight: Black As Night
Monday, June 16th, 2008
Black As Night, 2008
Collage and resin on wood
12 x 18 inches
I wanted the collage to come off as an intense, futuristic body armor. This piece was particularly hard to edit due to the intricate edges and the reflectiveness of the resin; it has a much stronger presence in person. The final few pieces of this collection […]

Love & Legacy, 2008
Collage and resin on ceramic red cross
9 x 9 inches
I love making these ceramic red cross pieces because they’re so compact and not everyone has room for a massive piece of art! Lately, I’ve been getting more into the idea of portability. I have a few more new […]
