I finally got hanging to be successful! I'm so proud.
The three images above are of a frame that my prints will hang from. It feels like it took a long time and alot of people to help figure out how to get the bracket system on the back to be a manageable task. I'm thrilled with the result. Smooth sailin' from here, baby. Hopefully.
The larger print collages are going to be hung like the one above. The size of this one almost seems like a towel hanging down, but I think that's just the composition of the prints. But I'm happy with this one as well. Durant taught me how to use a drill press last night. New favorite thing! So yeah, I'm getting excited.
My oral defense date has been confirmed and things are going smoothly. Its kinda nice.
And one for the homies!

O- Film Festival
My picks
1. First Saturday in May
Good documentary about horses, their trainers and the families of the trainers. Makes me want to bet on horses.
2. Gimme Green
Insightful documentary about wasting water
3. The Wine Bar
Funny comedy short about a guy who just wants a PRB
Other ones I saw were A Lawyer Walks into a Bar, I love Hip Hop in Maracoo The Pipe, The Animation Block, surely a few more, and screened the Alternative Films. Good time over all still plan to see Kabluey.

Hey!!
Words of wisdom from one of my Artist Interviews
"Good luck- remember that the M.F.A. show is just the beginning and set your life up so that you can keep making work afterwards, no matter what!"

New Paintings
fun. Fun. FUN! The show looked amazing. And I personally think its a good sign when a receptiong goes longer than anticipated.
Never stop a work too soon.
Laurie made a bunch of us who were there into peanuts.
By the end of the night the gentlemen had a bit too much fun. I think.
Well Done, Painters!
