Etsy.com

A few months back a woman spoke at my college called Linda Rachichi and she metioned something about making money while you sleep and i took it to heart.

I decieded to put some of the jewelry i've made on this website that sells hand made things. Soon i hope i will have enough ceramic work to sell.

This is the first piece i put on the website.

Graphic Design Project























So one of the students at the ceramic studio works at a hair salon, and one thing led to another and she asked me to make her a poster for the salons new henna hair color service.

I've always fought with my 'art' with graphic design. I used clip art from stock photo websites but the color, placement, and font choice is mine. At this point i'm not convinced i can call things like this 'artwork'. I feel like they belong to another category like 'applied art' and not 'fine art' or 'installation art'.

Making Curtains



I need the sun, I need to feel the sunshine on my face and in my eyes to wake up and not be depressed. So naturally I just didn't have curtains, they block out part of the sun and when the sun comes in on an angle even blocking a little bit of the window will block a lot of the sunshine!

But one day my mom starts yelling that I need curtains... and that I need privacy... so I think even tho my windows face the wood that she might have gotten word from the neighbors that... well that I’m a boy. lol.

So I made curtains from scratch. The fabric is blood red that came form a satin sheet set (satin sucks to sleep on I much prefer cotton). The rods extend far beyond the opening of the window, so when I push them aside they don't block anything AAAAND they make my room look bigger.

I'm a DAD!

Ok i'm not really a dad but its like i gave birth... wait that doesn't sound right either.

Something was born because of me*

I bought this amazing germinator contraption at home depot. You just keep the bottom filled with water and a special matt keeps the plants with the perfect amount of water.

Some of the first seeds sprouted a little wile ago and i'm super excited for the rest. Even for the alovera seeds that will take 2 months to sprout, i will love all my sprouts.

Haha well i know this isn't art but its something close to it.

Happy Growing Season!

Taking It In

Decided to take in a hoodie that was too big for me.

I got this hoodie when i was working at DKNY Jeans and thought it would be my oversized/comfort/favorite hoodie but a problem emerged!

The bottom of the hoodie was too wide and therefore looked awkward on me! So i put it on inside out and asked my mom to put pins in it for me then using chalk i made a smooth line and repinned it.

The result: A hoodie that is form fitted and comfy.
