Summer breather...

I am officially no longer an undergrad! I am now a graduate student and I will resume my schooling in the fall, and in two years I will have my MFA in fiction and WOO YEAH! I'm still on cloud nine about it. My Charleston art show went well and I got some wonderful feedback for the prints I made this semester. (Everyone in the show had wonderful work; I'd direct people to the websites of the girls I was exhibiting with, but they don't have websites yet and they are Serious Artists, so they definitely don't have DA accounts. :XD: Just kidding.) No buyers, but the Spoleto festival crowd hasn't come into Charleston yet, so I could still sell some things. Really, given the opportunity I received, I have little to complain about.

But of course, there is always something to complain about. I just now am getting over the Worst Sunburn Of My Life, God, it itches like a mother. Being a pale person who gets singed just crossing the street in a tank top, I should have known that sitting out on the beach to read for four hours was a bad idea. But I used sunscreen, dammit. I DID. Strangely enough though, I am starting to tan, though not really tan so much as freckle to the point where, from far away, it looks kind of like a tan...like one of those pointillist paintings.

So. At the moment I am back at home, chillaxing, job searching, reading, organizing my closet, throwing out some old sketchbooks (it's a purging of high school shit really; I'm not about to be nostalgic about it). I have some pieces I want to post, a couple of etchings from my printmaking class and maybe something else. I'll get my printer hooked up tonight and scan them in.

Best wishes everyone! Thanks for all your comments and faves!
Have a happy summer.

-Jen J.

You've got a deliciously twisted sense of surrealism; I'm still in awe.
Gorgeous. Wonderful job.

Tengo que aprender a volar
entre tanta gente de pie
cuidan de mis alas unos gnomos de lata
que de noche nunca rien
Si la lluvia llega hasta aquí
voy a limitarme a vivir
mojaré mis alas como el arbol o el ángel
o quizás muera de pena...:blackrose:
