Dublin vs. Texas

Dublin is, no doubt, changing my perspectives of things. I'm working on a smaller scale, for one, and, for two, it will be interesting to see how my change in city effects what I create.

But... my art is still living in Texas! The Amarillo Museum of Art is having a 12x12 fundraiser coming up soon which I will be participating in. Check it out, if you can.

Change

I'm finally here! I'm in Dublin (ready to get started with school) and today I discovered yogurt covered banana chips. I found an apartment today, so now my spare time may be used to explore. Hello museums and galleries!

Updated

I've added new drawings, mixed media, and paintings!

Museums

Today I visited the Nasher Sculpture Center and the Dallas Museum of Art. The DMA has a temporary exhibition that I absolutely loved:

	A Painting in the Palm of Your Hand: 18th-Century Painted Fans from the Wendy and Emery Reves Collection

Fans are more than practical; they are a communication tool. From Grand Tour souvenirs to statements about women in society, the variations that a paper fan can undertake have certainly caught my fascination.

Denton Art Show

Brian Gore and I are having an art show on Friday, July 13th (7 pm - 3 am) at Natalie's Cafe and Hookah Lounge in Denton. There will be live music by some of our amazing friends. I guarantee it will be a good time!

Snippet

The newest update for me is that I will be attending UCD in Dublin, Ireland beginning this September. I will be pursuing a Masters degree in Cultural Policy and Arts Management. I can't wait to see what new changes will come!

Discoveries

Inside:
I have been discovering things that are therapeutic to me and have been observing effects of the good and the bad, within and without.

Outside:
Side discoveries I enjoyed today were finding little "to go hummus" packages and finally purchasing regular size scissors.
