Moving Pains

Well, it's time to move again. Just once more before our big move to Romania. And in preparation for moving from California, I had to paint over my wall art. So, below are pictures taken right before I painted over them. Sad... but not really.
Freehand and not my best work, I had a lot of fun painting directly on the wall. The first one I did (the yellow and green one) I started when a friend was over visiting. She was talking about something while I was mixing my paint, and she stopped mid sentence as she saw me paint right onto the wall. She was quite surprised that I was just going to paint without even drawing with pencil first. Gotta love shock value.

Model for a Day


Through some luck I met Bill Millios, a wonderful gentleman who's picked up photography as a hobby. Having recently been married, and still fitting into my dress, Bill asked if I would do a bridal shoot for him, to help him build the wedding side of his portfolio. It was definitely fun learning how to model. Luckily my sister-in-law Sharole came along to help out and give me feedback.

This picture is one of my favorites. If you're interested in more, send me an e-mail and I'll give you the link to the gallery, while it's still up, or I'll send you some.

As fun as this experience was, I don't see modeling in my future :)
