Mikenna reminded me that I really don’t take the time to post any of my design… I am sure its because my design at the moment is pretty limited to what the professors tell me to create. This is a self portrait project that I was assigned in my Illustrator class. All of it was [...]
the city makes aliens of us all. every bustling, hustling street creeks the same as the empty allies. a forceful disconnect pushes your eyes down to the cracked concrete. i am not a person here, merely feet to fill their consumer shoes. no one has neighbors when the doors must remain locked. i see the [...]
The “campus” of my school is in the loop of Chicago and thus has a absolutely opposite feel than that of the universities I’ve lived around before. Forget walking a mile between classes, its a mere elevator ride away. It’s a matter of 1st floor versus 6th floor and so on. Likewise [...]
I see you in all of us. In the way our round noses sit on our faces, and in the way each of us approaches a new day. I see you the oldest. In the very way he makes a living and in his creative, distracted genius. I hear you in his voice, and in his increasingly [...]

Brett inspired me. I always look forward to his friday photo and so… I thought, “Why not?” So as I settle in for a night with my homework and a lovely glass of Chianti, I thought I’d share a good moment with you. This is at Jen’s house… I love the colors, books and argyle [...]
