i've been SUPER busy! doing what? i have no clue! but i've been busy alright! i just came back from peru (my brohter got married there- yahoo!) and was totally inspired by all of the hand woven textiles and alpaca roaming around. :)
so one of the things that has been keeping me busy is a photoshop class that i started right before my trip to peru- and here is my first homework assignment! i've been thinking a lot about lace ruffs for the past several months- so i also added little Baby Jesus in there because he's usually dressed in some pretty elaborate velvets, lace, ribbon, etc. inspired by the streets soley devoted to selling religious relics. paintings, dolls, statues, clothes for your saints, night lights, rosaries, tapestry, and of course, crowns to adorn your Baby Jesus! so with Baby Jesus in there i'm free to mix in all lace and pretty delicate things that i want to.
i'm pretty excited about the photoshop class- especially after fiddling around with it last night. i will share pictures of Peru once i find some time- as for now- i'm a busy bee with homework and wanting to draw. Sunday is my only day to myself so i think i might start drawing something. i got a huge piece of watercolor paper from swain's so i'm set for a huge painting- i'm thinking of painting scenes around the home- me and my cutie, loungin' around and being lazy.. pretty sweet huh? :) i feel happy at the moment. optimistic...
what's got you feeling happy and optimistic these days????
