senior show: once removed

2011-04-27T15:14:00.000-04:00

here are some shots from my senior show!

2011-02-03T14:04:00.000-05:00

i'm about to leave the house to go hang my first solo show!

if you are in the pittsburgh area, come check out my drawings & collages.

here's a sample of the work:

in other news, i'm busy applying for some residencies & competitions,

experimenting with medium & size,

& figuring out my (quasi)permanent move to pittsburgh

in june.

here is a more useful way for me to show things i find inspiring

2010-09-26T15:37:00.001-04:00

i made a separate blog.

this is going to be my work, that one will be other people's work. what an unnecessary yet alluring spreading out of myself over the internet.

some shots from my studio

2010-09-25T22:59:00.000-04:00

i'm getting immersed in work, & have 1000 projects i want to be working on. here's what's going on in my studio right now.

here are some shots of my storage closet:

this is the first in a series of

collages tentatively titled "how to go home":

my desk. messy, already.

my newest project. i'm creating a cross-stitch microjournal for a month.

more influences

i've never been one for names per se. images that stick in my mind are often stronger than looking at a body of work, or an exhibition catalog. i'm always bad at remembering who makes the things i like. so forgive me if i don't have a cohesive group of artists i can point to & say "these ones." i'm more likely to post old photographs, snapshots, sketches.
though i guess most of these are from more "professional" artists.
