Gun


Last night, instead of doing my homework I made a linoleum print of this Kurt Vonnegut illustration and quote from Breakfast of Champions. I printed it on some papers and fabrics and made a sweet embroidered patch and a case for my ipod today. I'm quite pleased.

Books!


We learned how to make case bound books at book club. I made these two. The small one is for writing down quotes that I hear from people. I'm excited about it.

Phase 1


This is the first phase of my still life for drawing. I'm excited about how it's going to turn out.

Artichokes are my favorite vegetables!

Drawing class


This is my hallway drawing from my drawing class. It turned out alright. Excuse the crappy photo of it though, I took it with my telephone.

Breakfast of Champions

"Ideas on Earth were badges of friendship or enmity. Their contents did not matter. Friends agree with friends in order to express friendliness. Enemies disagree with enemies in order to express enmity."

african proverb

If you have a voice, you can sing.
If you have feet, you can dance.

one of my favorite poems

"Literal"
when they said he could walk on water
what it sounds like to me
is he could float like a butterfly
and sting like a bee
literal people are scary, man
literal people scare me
out there trying to rid the world
of its poetry
while getting it wrong fundamentally
down at the church of "look,
it sez right here, see!"
-Ani Difranco
