What a Cute Little Monster!

I have always been fascinated by the art of the Celebrity Inspired Food Parody. Sesame Street does it, and now.....so do I. While learning the basics of Adobe Photoshop, I manipulated images of food to make an image of Lady Gaga.

I think the resemblance could have been better and that the people at PBS would have used a baby, or avoided the topic after the Katy Perry Incident (http://tv.gawker.com/5642979/katy-perrys-boobs-guest-star-on-sesame-street)...but this is still adorable, if I do say so myself.

POSTMARKED MARCH 24, 2011: A Stamp Project

When I was bored in elementary school, I used to write letters to my "future self," a sixth grader and leave them in my underwear drawer. I reread these letters not too long ago. I was a rather strange child. I think that child and her future self, both of whom were probably better versed in world capitals than I am and drank canned Arizona Iced Tea whenever they could, would delight in these stamps. (Its not the same out of the gallon jugs.) What represented then, could represent me now. Perhaps only body and setting have changed. The pieces of my series of stamps, modeled on the concepts of past, present and future, are more alike than not. er her

A Day at Hunter

Up, up and away I go in this vertical campus that I sometimes call home. Some mornings are sharp and my purpose is clear. On other times its rather blurred. I am frequently dazed and confused as I face this world of higher education. Whether you are like me, or not, the concept (and process) of ascension is linked to this 14 story campus. The individual is often lost in the city, but people here get the attention they seek.
