a catalogue of my personal posessions

I've started a little project of starting a catalogue of my posessions. Again, going back to noting the things that surround me and the things that bring me comfort. To start out, I began drawing my shoe collection. I have an incredible amount of shoes. Some I like more than others, some that give me grief, and some that have memories.

Time In Between

So I've made the move from Kansas City to DeKalb, undergraduate to graduate. Waiting for things to pick up, I still try to create something. A little bit of a struggle, but it's keeping me somewhat occupied.



Working with watercolors and ink, I've been doing drawings from old family photographs but adding some changes to make it more fun......

Also still keeping a sketchbook ....
