Pardon the Dust...
I'll be working all weekend on some behind-the-scenes stuff with the blog & (hopefully) a new design, so please excuse any weird hiccups around here during the next couple days!Labels: site update

Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris
The capybara is the largest living rodent - growing up to four feet long and weighing up to 400 pounds - and are found in the wild in South America. They are excellent swimmers and can hold their breath underwater for up to five minutes. Capybaras are herbivores and graze like cows, regurgitating and re-chewing their cud. Also, they are coprophagous, meaning they eat their own feces to extract maximum benefit from their food.
They're also just really damn cute.Labels: art school confidential, drawings

Je veux ton amour et je veux ta revenge
A little drawing of Lady Gaga for class. I just adore her - I think we're in need of an artist who puts on a spectacle, who has a strong sense of showmanship in this sea of pop factory dupes.Labels: art school confidential, drawings

Stiff back or stiff knees, you stand straight at Tiffany's
Even though our anniversary was a week ago, I wanted to share my little anniversary present from Ryan. I'm trying to better remember his thoughtful presents, because as the years go by my memories seem to get jumbled up.
Does that happen to you? Have you already forgotten what you got and from whom for Christmas?
Happy February, friends!Labels: about me

"Everything you see, I owe to spaghetti."
A little drawing I did this past week. One of the few that were liked for this one class that might just kill me.
I love Sophia Loren. Definitely one for my Food Therapy book.Labels: art school confidential, drawings

Tumbled.
You can now follow my Tumblr, which I intend to use for cataloging the gorgeous inspiration I find around the web. (Like the above Camilla Akrans work I found via The Clothes Horse). Seriously guys, my bookmarks were getting out of control.Labels: inspiration

Waking Up in Vegas
Sorry for having disappeared on you for awhile. Spring term started, and then last weekend R & I took a trip to Vegas for our four year anniversary. Four years. Wow.
Some of the hotels (namely the Bellagio & Palazzo) were gorgeously decorated for the upcoming Chinese New Year holiday. Two things about this: first, I love that Chinese people are known for loving Vegas & gambling so much that their culture's most celebrated holiday is represented. Second, there were beautiful lanterns and 10 foot tigers made of flowers everywhere. It was such a styling dream! How do I get that job??
