current music vice...Little Dragon

Little Dragon is an electronic music band based out of Sweden. It consists of Swedish-Japanese singer Yukimi Nagano and her close high-school friends.I dig her voice it’s a refreshing and interesting female lead in a very instrumental ensemble with crazy beats. Their music is light and airy but with a great afternoon/evening grove. Kind of music you plug into and just go with it. I’m not a music critic or anything but I say yes to this. I hope they make it to the states for a tour! enjoy! and just close your eyes and sway your head to this tune!

had to share this because it was totally random and something interesting to watch.

Fucccck YESSSS

Passion Pit is so hitting the spot this morning!!!






Lyrics:
And everything is going to the beat
And everything is going to the beat
And everything is going –

And you said
It was like fire around the brim
Burning solid,
Burning thin the burning rim
Like stars burning holes right through the dark
You gave fire like saltwater into my eyes
You were an inch from the edge of this bed
I drive you back a sleepyhead, sleepyhead

They couldn't think of something to say the day you burst
With all their lions and all their might and all their thirst
They crowd your bedroom like some thoughts wearing thin
Against the walls, against your rules, against your skin
My beard grew down to the floor and out through the doors
Of your eyes, begonia skies like a sleepyhead, sleepyhead

Go ahead

The show was a HUGE succes!

I thought it went really well, I was pleased. It was 3 days of long late nights in the gallery. I loved it and I can not wait to actually be doing this on a regular basis. The hanging of different pieces and creating different types of shows will be amazing!! the space at first was a little intimidating , but after we started placing things in spots and getting a feel for all the works together it was easier. the four of us worked surprisingly well together, we each had different content but they all were related in style. it was a nice collaboration if you ask me.

The B-Side:

senior art exhibit

we started Wednesday at 6pm and didn't leave until 2am. in this time we built a full wall from scratch . Thursday I was in the gallery from 12pm until 3am.... all day long working. the wall was such a problem we kept putting putty sanding more Spackle and more sanding... I was white by the end of the day.

Capturing the Alternative Beauty

Assignment:alternative beauty.

to me alternative beauty was something that we dont see everyday, something that we may overlook because we are so over stimulated with images of cookie cutter, girl next door types. In this picture I choose to capture the darker side of beauty.I was pretty happy with the outcome because it was beauty but with a dark un-natural twist.

SOLD!!

I sold "Cant hear the monkey on my shoulder". I entered that piece at a local show with two others and that one sold opening night!! I was so excited its my first piece to be sold so i look forward to selling more!!
