Welcome to 2.0!

Ever have that nasty feeling that you're watching your life speed skate past you?

Yup, welcome to the club!

People think its funny that I'm freaking out about getting old at 26 (I even think its funny), but the truth is, I'm not even in the ballpark of where I want to be, or where I planned to be...and I'm not just talking about economically. I'm talking about the whole shebang; financially, socially, spiritually, emotionally, logistically, geographically, educationally (is that a word?)...ok, you get my point.

One thing that has become abundantly clear to me over the last couple years, is that you really have to be your own white knight, though personally I've always preferred cowboys...but I digress.

So what is a 6th year community college student in the midst of a quarter-life crisis to do? Get a Harley, a word processor and a 100 piece Craftsman tool kit. Between riding, writing and wrenching I should accomplish something productive...right?

Summer School - Ceramics and Watercolor

Greetings & Happy Summer All,
Since they aren't offering any Auto Mechanics courses over the summer, I had to switch to a Fine Arts Major for the next month or two, so I can continue to receive my educational benefits. I, who have never had any real art training or experienc, am tackling Ceramics I and Watercolor I. My mom's dad is a professional watercolorist, so at least I have a decent chance of relying on genetics in that class.

Here are a couple things I've done so far:






Piggy Bank & Vase w/Egyptian Symbols











Values Landscape - Watercolor



(The 1 mega pixel cell phone camera really doesn't represent this piece well.)
