Surf Art Expo: Virginia Beach
Please join me for my first art show, Memorial Day weekend, at the Steel Pier Classic in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The Surf Art Expo is held annually in conjunction with the surf contest, right on the beach. Excited to start putting a booth together and getting ready for the weekend!

Hawaiian Shave Ice
Today I was craving a snow cone. Then I thought of how good a shave ice would be. There is no shave ice here, so I drew an illustration of one. Then I drew two more. It was a good time.
Hole-Punch Assignment
On the first day of my experimental darkroom class, we were asked to bring in a 4×5 negative, punch 5 holes out of it, trade hole punches with another student, and go into the darkroom and try to make something cool. This is the oddest assignment I’ve been given… here were my results..
