New Paintings I'm working on!

 Painting project we worked on in class. Went from blurry upside down slide ( and yes I typed slide lol) to right side up and clear image on an old classic painting. It was so much fun and reminded me how much I love to paint.

Work for my Sketchbook Project

I'm taking part in an illustrated sketchbook project. Here are the most recent entries!

My first attempt at Printmaking!

Minneapolis and St. Paul finally had it's first all night art extravaganza called Northern Spark. Basically what you do is go around to all these different art events and create and inspire the public into the world of art. It was WONDERFUL! ( I will be writing about it for my other blog soon) One of the events was at the High Point Print studio and gallery, and they had free print making. So without further adieu here is my first attempt at Printmaking I hope you like it.

My favorite

Hey all sorry I've Been MIA
