,Last summer was the 2nd annual Kids Day Event, held by Collective Concepts and About Time Boutique. 
My boyfriend Zack Helwa and I were asked to do something that incorporated our art and the community, so we created puppets and built a stage.  We sang and laughed with the children. parodies of songs like "Where is My Mind?" by the Pixies and many more were heard roaring through the street of Sterling Place.  It was a lot of a fun and this July will mark Annual Kids Day Event: it's 3rd year in Crown Heights/Prospect Heights.  So come prepared for contagious laughter and much much more!

multiplicity
geometry
must make mark on moving forms
want to turn private marks to public skin

so who wants to teach me how to tattoo?

So as seasons reveals to us a hunger for change, I'm going to let you in on a little secret.
This time last year, my family took a series of classes, an exam, and now we all have our sailing certificates.
That's right! We are all qualified to sail.

Anyway, it's been a year of drab obsessive Craig's List hunting.
Luckily our family joined a boat club and our demands were met.
Well, $200 bucks later.....

*I just want to add that my bicycle was more expensive than this boat.

*******MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THIS BOAT.

I neglected to photograph her mast and boom. (Personifying boats with feminine gender.)

She's pretty(I did it again.) but really, really dirty.  After some cleaning up, WD-40, nice little paint job, and a name we'll be ready to launch and my dad and brother are prepared to start growing matching disheveled beards.
A NAME??? We haven't settled on a name YET!!!!!!!!!!!!

my suggestion was pretty terrible:

The Aquarian Dipper

.... that was it.  My parents hated that.

Names for boats are hard to pick!

obviously we're going to think of Greek mythology or water things.

I don't think I should be awake right now. I have an eight hour drive tomorrow.

Leave me a comment of name ideas!!!!

I worked as an artist for Trader Joe's a few summers ago.  I was responsible for illustrating chalkboards and designing templates for the company's products.  These are two images I produced for the store during my employment there:

This following illustration was installed for promotion of Trader Joe's Fearless Flyer.
