Made Out of Money

This painting I did based off of a Van Gogh painting. A technique I used for it was to glue Monopoly money to the canvas to block out the colors I'd be using. You can still see a few 20's and the shape of many of the bills.

The Bolt

This is a painting I did in highschool. Definitely one of my best paintings! I'd originally done an oil painting of a barn on the same canvas, which you can still see evidence of near the top, but decided it was u-g-l-y! This painting is taken from a detail of Fragonard's The Bolt. I absolutely love Fragonard, mainly for his habit of including a "steamy" under- or overtone in his works!

What's Going On Here???

Hey Blogger! Why are you saying that my blog doesn't exist? And why can I still find links to it that work?????????? You big bully!

Really Getting in the Holiday Spirit!

I just couldn't resist myself when I saw this! Inspired by a teacher's blog posts about her husband's comparisons between her and a "bobble-head", here, here, and here, I just had to take this picture of a tree ornament that I found at World Market yesterday! I think it's a rather cute resemblance!

Love you Suzanne! :)

O Omelet, My Omelet!

I was very proud of how this omelet turned out, both in taste and in presentation! I hadn't expected it to fold over so nicely, but when it did on accident, I did my best to maintain its shape! And it was sooooo tasty!!!!

Fall Is In the Air!

These are some pics I took today on campus. Isn't it beautiful? Even if the school itself is rotten, at least the landscapers know what they're doing!

Mushroom Kingdom

Check out these trippy mushrooms I found on campus! They were everywhere!!

Two-Hour Art Sessions

These are some pictures I did of my friends over Fall Break. I used my Chartpak markers (for the first time since last semester! Yay!) on trace paper with an artist pen for the outlines. I am really proud of them!

This last picture was actually done by my boyfriend, Jaleel. Isn't it great!!?? I love him so much! I'm really proud of him and all the work he put into it!

Downtown Design

This is a cute, cute store in downtown Greensboro, located at 515 Elm Street. The store is called area- modern home and lighting. It has some really great furniture and interior accessories, which is a huge compliment coming from me! I got so many ideas when I went, even the customer service was less than I expected.

*The second picture was taken from Google Maps. Check out the street view of the map!

Super Lighting

This is a pic I took on my boo's cell phone while we were waiting on a friend in the Super Lab in the library. I'm not a big fan of this style of lighting, but that doesn't mean it can't be made interesting.
