graduation, life, and my hopes and dreams..

:)


me and my roomies at BrewCo! just some of the people I will miss after graduation


With that said, I'm going to give you a big update on what's been going on with me..

--Things in my life have been going incredibly well as of late, and I'm so thankful! I feel like I'm living a triple life: Artist/Designer. Entrepreneur. Student. It's rad and I would say that I wouldn't have it any other way, but I could definitely do without the 'Student' part. But thankfully, I'm graduating a quarter early from UCLA. Only three more weeks and I'll be doing what I love full time--making art and continuing to develop my design business. I can't wait, I really can't. freaking. wait.



--I completed my first huge commission (72 square feet can you believe it?!!!!) for a private client in Las Vegas through the Jennifer Marie Gallery. It turned out awesome and I'll be posting pictures of the process very soon. The best part was that I had total creative freedom. It was stressful trying to get it done and having to ship such an incredibly large painting out to Nevada, but it turned out just the way I wanted it to which is a success in itself.

--I'm definitely looking forward to all the shows I'll be doing with Gallery1988 (both LA and SF), the first being the Mattel-sponsored Toys show which opens Tuesday April 1st. Also looking forward to releasing giclee prints of 'The City' through the gallery as well.

--Bunch of shows lined up til 2009!

--And on a more random note, I'm planning on getting another tattoo and I'm excited (sorry mom and dad if you're reading this. haha!!!)
