June... whatever

Guess it's time for another journal entry.

First:  Shout out to my friend for this most awesome birthday present.  It definitely made turning a year older a little less painful



Meanwhile, I've been busy sharpening my skills before school sucks up what little remains of my energy, time, and sanity (the last of which I have very little left ).  I apologize now for my increasingly eclectic gallery.  Hopefully, the occasional turtle is making up for it...

speaking of which...

I've entered a TMNT t-shirt design contest.  (not the wet t-shirt variety. Get your minds out of the gutter!)  One of the judges is Kevin Eastman himself.  Rating of the entries starts June 18th and I'll post the drawings here on that date, but meanwhile here's the link if any of you are interested: contest.welovefine.com/contest…

To finish... I'd like to share a fun little video of my grandma who is the awesomest and who took me to art classes with her as soon as I could hold a paint brush (mostly because I kept trying to steal hers).  BTW, I just want to add that her name is Elva and she is turning 100 years old in September (thank you News Channel 5 for not getting the facts quite right).
