I dropped off my childhood best friend off at the MTC. Watch out Japan! Ellie Hansen is on the way!!!!I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS GIRL! She was so thrilled she could barely walk straight! But this is actually how she usually is. haha. Man I love this girl. Two more years until I am off! Wow time flies.

This is momma Hansen. She is completely wonderful and adorable. Kaori her sister was here too. At least we get to be together at school!

Folded and Torn

Our art teacher displayed our class' art in the art building; every artists dream and honor.We had a fun time enjoying the moment!

Art building junkies!! We have two art education/fellow studio artists, two amazing photographers, a Paige with a font obsession, an illistrator/graphic art major and myself. We love running into each other. I think this is what happened here actually.

My heart is full of joy

The time of the year where the leaves crunch and smells are everywhere

As a native to the east coast where the fall air turns crisp and sweet, I had to jump into the first pile of leaves I could find.

This is my element.

Pick me up when the snow falls. Please bring me soup, pumpkin cookies, hot sandwhiches and corn bread and I will be fine.

Enjoying center street together! The only artsy part of town. haha. Look at these girls! Paige has a feather in her hair and Hannah's pants are patched. What more could you ask for in a friend?!

Sweet sweet fall. Can you smell those leaves?! It makes me want to go for a run just thinking about it.

I like the smell of wet newspaper

This is our duck pond.

I have never seen roots like this. And I have seen a lot of roots in my day.

Look at that green moss! Nature is amazing!

Fall is the time to appreciate that Paige's hair is the same color as some of the leaves that I hang I pick up off the grass and hang up in my room.

Fall is the time to wear beanies and panda sweaters.

Fall is the time to sit in the grass and enjoy watching Alyssa love her hot cider.

Fall is the time to find ten dollar purple cashmere sweaters at Gap.

Fall is the time to study under a sunlit tree of fiery yellow leaves.

Dance party

My roommate and I dressed up like iPod commercials. It gave us the perfect excuse to dance however we wanted.

Its like where's waldo.....

Where are the iPods?

I am currently enrolled in a sculpture class where I get to work with sparks, leather jackets, blow torches and welders. This is to all those who claim that art is a major for the timid. 

Lighting that torch is one of the most satisfying things I've done in the studio. This picture is for you grandpa!
