Blizzard Nemo

Okay! So everyone in the New England Area can relate to the three days we spent stuck inside of the house thanks to Blizzard Nemo! Here are a few pictures that pretty much sum up what I did that whole weekend. I had the privilege to be stuck in the house with the amazingly funny Hannah and Lauren. What we did the whole time was, arts and crafts and drink... A LOT. You know living up our 20's, killing our livers. But in all fun, take a look and enjoy ;)

We were prepared in case the light went out

Painting With Light

I have realized this. Painting with light has to be the most outside of the box way of art I have ever made. (not sure if that makes sense.) But usually I shoot landscape and people the way we usually see them. I have never done something so abstract before. I've been having trouble accepting this. The fact that it is so different and cool I think scares me. Im so used to working with the light not against it. But none the less I a very satisfied with the work I have completed so far. I guess it shows that I can be versatile with my style of work. It will always be a Working Progress!

C.E.S.A Clothespin Project

Last spring I helped out the NorthShore Clothespin Project. This project happens twice a year on campus (once in the fall and in the spring). What happens is students or residents of the North Shore fill out a T-Shirt standing up to domestic violence and rape. Some people share their stories and stories of others. Most of the T-Shirts are filled out anonymously. It is a very powerful day. Students and Faculty have to walk past and see the t-shirts. It brings a sense of hope to the campus. It can also get very emotional for victims and those who have been effected by domestic violence or violence of any kind. I just thought I'd share because this was something very inspirational and important to me.

More Light Paintings

Hey! Here are some of the latest pictures I've taken, using my great friend Nina!!

The Poet's Companion 

This is my favorite. There is this emotion that the picture conveys, and the orange glow adds to it. 

I have no idea why I love this picture! It was a mistake and the head is cut off. But there is something that keeps drawing me back to this picture.. Comments? What do you think?

Trying No Heat

I have been "going natural" for about a year now. Although I have not subjected my hair to chemicals and perms. I have been using a lot of heat on my hair. I know that this is not good for my hair! So since it was a long weekend, i decided to experiment and try bantu knots after I washed my hair. This was the result. I was pleased. I got the same look I get when I tight curl my hair with the flat iron. The process time was doubled what I'm normally used too but I can't complain. 

 

So the next day when I woke up the curls did not stay like I wanted them too. ): So in a panic I straightened my hair. I am definitely going to try this again and research ways to get them to stay for a couple days

I love food. I love food more than a lot of things. 90 percent of what I shoot will be food. Its a sickness, or a great gift if you want to look at it glass half full :)

MMM Enjoy :)

For dinner last week (as you can see) I made Honey Lemon Shrimp various seasonings with a Onion Sliced Baked Potato and Broccoli with cheese. It came out soooo yumm and was so healthy for me :)

Im becoming a regular ol chef in my old days!
