my website is finally up!!
yaayyy

it took me soo long to get it together and up
but after all the stressing out and being lost its finally up! :)
i've also gotten through printing my business cards and calendars which was another challenge in itself. I have a feeling of relief right now; i feel like i can breath.
but i still have much work to do (like designing a board game and making two new pieces of art for my independent study) so i can't relax too soon.
ill post some pix of the calendar and cards soon
in the meantime
enjoy visiting the site

ive been sketching in my little black sketchbook for a while now and i thought i'd scansome of my work in and show you what it looks like...
im putting them up in chronological order from the earliest to the most recent so you can see my transitions..a lot of the sketches were done while i was sitting around waiting for something or someone
sooooo..here it goes!

i did this batch around campus (CSULB)
this whole sketchbook actually started out as a class
assignment but became an all the time kind of thing

the love of my life, my fiance art, posing for me :) i love him so so very much!
in Karavan dance studio
in Art's old apartment
back in Karavan
back in the old apt.

this batch is from art's nutcracker shows in Dec. 2011
this is a slipper laying around backstage in the orange county nutcracker
we got there early so art took a quick nap in the dressing
room at thousand oaks..we were suppper tired that entire month
with all the rehearsals, shows, waking up early, going to bed late
and the endless driving! I took advantage of his lack of movement and
got a quicky sketch out! :)
waiting for art to finish changing after
one of the thousand oaks shows
i was sitting directly in front of these in a hallway
back at the old apartment..
this is the last of the apt sketches
backstage staircase prop for orange county

i took a long break from sketching

got back into it around feb..this sketch is of my mom in
the car while we were going out to eat sushi with
my dad and art
feb ballet in pasadena..
backstage


hope you enjoyed these

till next time

so i just got back from the asian market with my parents
i grabbed a few things that i though i'd show you guys

these i actually tried for the first time like a week ago at school and i really liked it..so i thought i'd get a box
these panda cookies are the best! my mom used to buy them when we were kids and i've loved them ever since..the strawberry ones are my favorite

the lily bulbs i've tried once and they're pretty good..i though i'd get more to have my fiance (art) try some and our friend vartan too..
i've never had the bamboo though so i will have to try that and see



i love trying new stuff!
ive discovered so many great things that way..like Indian Food! the best food ever
life is too boring when everything is the same all the time..don't you think?
try new things and explore other cultures and maybe you'll discover a new favorite something that you wouldn't have known about if you took the safe route
