Comic Con, moving, art show, and etc.

So, Comic Con was awesome. Our costumes were awesome, mostly Amanda's and Michelle's though. There were many aspects of my costume that I liked, but I was missing a few key elements. Like hair, boots, and broaches. Oh well. My fuku was awesome and my choker was too.
Amanda and Michelle's costumes were totally complete, and it was very exciting to walk around with them all day and take pictures with stormtroopers and other folks like that.
I also shook Kevin Sorbo's hand. For those of you who don't know who he is, he is the star of my third favorite T.V. show to ever be on television: Hercules, the Legendary Journeys! (The order is this: Sailor Moon, Xena, and the Hercules!)

Unfortunately, I was out of money and unable to buy an autograph from him. But, I did shake his hand!

Life has been pretty crazy ever since summer started. With moving, orientation, trying to say "goodbye for a while" to all my favorite people and things I've become attached to has given me a bit of a shake-up.

In preparation for the new apartment I bought a whole bunch of plants to plant in pots outside. I think that growing something will make it seem more like home for me.

More on life and such.

So, we've managed to find ourselves a three bedroom apartment.

I'll post pictures when I feel like it, but I'm confident in its awesomeness and I think we'll be doing alright there. : )

I also have an art show featuring some never-before-seen art!
I've been working vigorously for the past two weeks, and I've completed three paintings and I'm working on a fourth. Hopefully, photographs will be taken of all of them and I can make prints of them to sell online. I'm very proud of this particular batch, especially since they were done without the rigid guidelines of a class assignment and allowed me to demonstrate my style. 

I'm putting up a couple of self-portraits and a few other things. 
Once again, I am filled with excitement.

I will be showing at Espresso Metro, on 11th and Freeport in the Landpark Area.
It will be from July 7th-August something.

I will be also showing with special guest Jake Wallin, fellow artist and Sacramento native that I have known for many years. 

If you are interested in seeing more than paper scans of my art, I encourage you to stop by and see what we've been working on. 

And if you like coffee, come drink some and check out our art as a second thought. I hope to see you there!
