cher bebe

[popart of my niece Lily from bighuglabs.com]
So my very first niece was born yesterday at 6:18 pm, she was 6 pounds 14 ounces 21 inches long! I know all aunts say this, but man she is the prettiest little baby girl i've ever seen. She was born with a full head of dark brown hair and has big bright blue newborn eyes; oh what a heartbreaker she'll be.

M is for Mignon... my middle name

More M designs from my sketchbook.

Mmm...

Sketches of M's I did in my sketchbook, while thinking of blog face lift ideas.

Coffee and Beignets

 
I did a mosaic of my then puppy Beignet, using this photograph of her.

[CAUTION] wet paint

 
These are paintings I did over the summer of '08. Oh how I miss lazy days of painting.

So fresh and so clean clean!

Man, I have wanted to have a blog that I am really proud of, but who knew how hard this would be?! I have been playing in illustrator and photoshop, looking online at famous blogs for ideas and yet it seems less is more. I hope to show my personality, but adding things to express myself and interests is going to take a bit longer. This blog makeover is my first studio assignment for my last undergraduate studio at unc-g. This project is exciting and has made me want to succeed in the studio. I have immersed myself in the blog project and don't want to get out! I feel the urge to fool around with my blog at any free moment. I am not one hundred percent satisfied with my blog, there is always room to improve. So with that being said, here goes nothin'!
