Where I Left Off

Apparently, I’m not skilled at blogging consistently. It has been over a year since my last post, which is embarrassing. However, I will not stop trying over and over again, no matter how much time passes in between. I’ll get the hang of it eventually.

In all my experience, I’ve always been zipped lip about my artwork, apart from my postgraduate studies. Even then, I was only open about my work with my amazing adviser, Christopher Webster Van Tonder, and the visiting exhibition judge at that time.

Everything and nothing has happened since I last wrote. Last year was a whirlwind— good and bad. Starting the year broken-hearted. then learning to code for web-development, all while maintaining my health (which I may explain one day), I did not accomplish all that I had hoped. What I love (and hate) about life is the unpredictability. I’ve learned many things in such a short time, and I would not go back and change any of it— except maybe my impulsive nature to eat all the things I shouldn’t.

If you’re following my Instagram or Facebook page, you will already know this, but I have been selected to participate in an exhibition at the Urban Arts Gallery, here in Salt Lake City, this November. It will be the first show in over 3 years of which I will be a part. Needless to say, I haven’t created many new pieces in that 3 years, but just in the last 45 days I have started four pieces and finished one of them.

I’ve got a lot to do. I’m adjusting the pricing on my prints— providing more options for different budgets— and hopefully will have that done soon.
