Back to it! Happy Monday, all. 
An article of mine was posted over at C-VILLE Weekly's Art Picks page, check it out here if you like.

As you can see from my phone-fotos, this weekend I had the pleasure of seeing Chihuly's glass works at the VMFA. If you have yet to see it, do. Worth the time, though it is a test of self-restraint for those of us who fight strong desires to touch and visually inspect every side of  every thing (maybe that's just me). I think it goes without saying the entire exhibition supplies one great photo-opportunity after another. I love what glass can do... Chihuly uses organic, undulating forms to create sensual and strong pieces of sculpture with such a delicate medium.


Eventually stumbled into Judith Godwin's Gesture show as well. We did not expect it to be tucked away near tapestries and masks but we found it, by gum. I admit I was too excited to be surrounded by such large canvases to whip out the phonecam. And how can I forget about Diana Al-Hadid's installation Trace of a Fictional Third?

I must make another trip before all of this good stuff ends.

Keeping Busy

So, here we are in mid-November. It's been a month since my last post? Four months (a third of a year) since I've moved here? Wow.  Submitted an exhibition proposal to a gallery, excited and impatient to hear back! Interning weekly over at 1708. Lots of writing happening as well...two articles in the works and a collaboration lining up with my other half/photographer. I'm practically living in my car driving back and forth but I'm exceedingly thankful and happy to do it.  Here are a few photos of my exploits since October. In short, I have become attached to pastels, mod podge, and copious amounts of coffee. No, really, I have been drinking too much coffee.

In addition, I am travelling back home next week! So many things for which I am overwhelmingly thankful. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
