As part of my constantly evolving thesis topic I took a bunch a photos and looked at some older ones. Enjoy.

First the New Photos:

Some Newer Ones:

So, in the spirit of narcissism (hey, it’s my Birthday, I think I can exercise this characteristic today) I wanted to share this tissue paper that was included in a gift that my mom sent me from Crate&Barrel! Enjoy!

For the final assignment of the class we could pick any topic and explore it. Over the semester I have been totally fascinated by patterns… here is what I came up with:

First, I made some on the computer:

Next I printed some patterns on fabric:

Lastly I did some printmaking:

Trish Moore, one of my favorite profs from MICA, once told me that she loves to collect art, including trading pieces with her artist friends. I have always thought that this is such a wonderful idea, but I never thought I had enough money to begin such a venture. Without even thinking about it, I started my collection last year with the purchase of some beautiful screen prints. Today during color theory, Michelle showed us that she is the featured artist on the 20×200 website! This site has always been on my radar but I had never bought any of the prints before. Well, today that all changed because soon I will be the proud owner of a Michelle Hinebrook and a Marian Bantjes print! I am so excited to begin filling my walls more! Below are the pictures and links to the prints that I bought.

This is the Michelle Hinebrook print:

And here is the Bantjes Print:

I got a new backpack the other day that has a padded pocket for my laptop. The tag had a really neat pattern on it, take a look!
