big things

I just got a nice check from the MICA Raw Art Sale. This was the first time I'd ever sold any of my work.

It's a kind of wonderfully unusual feeling knowing that people you don't know appreciate your work enough to buy it and have it in his or her possession. The pieces that sold were the ones I was most proud of (not the one pictured in the previous blog)
so that was nice.

Also exciting, I know I'm going to be traveling some where second semester next year, but I don't know just where yet.
Getting Global rules.

Feride Uslu

Feride Uslu is really great. I've always coveted her beauty line, Uslu Airlines and lately I've been reading blog on the Colette site. But anyway, I thought these photographs were really beautiful. I love the colors and shapes she uses on the faces of the models, especially in relation to the head coverings and social context.







I think for my birthday I'm going to treat myself to her GLOW IN THE DARK (!) nail polish inspired by Busy P from Ed Banger. It's comes with an *exclusive* mix as well!

Total Win Win.
