casual nothings

Julie Mehretu is one on my list of greatest living artists/painters.

unfortunately the website I got it through has no titles with the images, but it’s a nice set.

it’s weird seeing them so tiny on a screen when in life they are HUGE and engulfing. I recently went to the St. Louis art museum and they had a smaller painting of hers. I was so excited to see it!

oh my. I cannot say how much I am in love with triangles right now. and grids!

I really jumped around on my subject matter.

just another taste from my older work. need to start painting again…

this linocut is from a picture of my mom in high school at a fundraising girl on girl boxing event. she’s on the left. I live this image! I titled it “girl fight”

I haven’t done a self portrait in a while…

this is SUCH a good photo set for BM 2011. This description is also a really good explanation of the festival.

I’m still on the fence whether or not I liked it. I go back and forth with loving and hating every day.

I wish I had seen this installation though.

as much as I am so glad to be done with school and classes, there is something to be said for the simple beauty of drawing from a still life with traditional mediums.
