So first off, Finals are over! Just had my last three yesterday and they all went very well. Life has been going pretty awesome as a whole lately. Things are still rough but my outlook is much better and had some great things happening!
I took an independent study (500 level) this semester in collaboration with

with a focus on character development and illustration. The project CHIAROSCURO was born from this class.

It is now hanging in a gallery on campus for the school and world to see! Our labor of love and many, many hours of hard work -and lots of sugar and caffeine- has paid off! It was crazy to see something we've spent so much time on hanging up and getting to talk to people that wandered into see why we were in the gallery typically reserved for visiting artists. It's been awesome to see how two characters created for a random rp have become a huge part of our time and portfolio and allowed us to talk about important issues and motifs.
But now i'm ready to start the summer! It will be full of hard work of course but also packed full of adventure! Youth will not be wasted on this one!
To everyone still in finals: CONQUER THEM LIKE WARRIOR PRINCES AND PRINCESSES! TAKE NO PRISONERS!
