I’ve been swamped with school, work and a social life. It’s been hard to get anything done.

However, I was able to squeeze in a senior pictures session a few weeks ago.

I also had some of my photography on display at Paradigm Coffeehouse in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. It was such an honor! I even had one print that sold to a lady from Chicago! I’ll try and get some pictures of the show up ASAP.

School has been going great so far. I’m currently in a watercolor II class and a 2D design class. I also want to get pictures up of my first few projects.

So, please, stay tuned! I really want to get back into the swing of things, so expect more regular updates!

I didn’t change much, just added a little info.
I also added some new photos and got rid of older ones.

There is one major downfall with being a perfectionist. I am constantly changing and updating things because I get sick of them and I always feel like I can do better. I suppose that’s not really a downfall, but it’s difficult to keep things consistent sometimes.

Also, please check out the latest photos at my flickr. You can see a lot more that didn’t quite make it into my portfolio.

This is the latest self portrait added to my portfolio.

At first, this photo started out as nothing but an experiment. I was attempting to spark my imagination by messing around with some manipulations. I was also brainstorming a concept for a series that I’m going to be starting soon. This was the result.

However, the more I look at it, I’m beginning to see a message form. Perhaps this was my subconscious telling me that I’m finally “breaking out” of this creative block I’ve been stuck in for a while. Hopefully, this will lead to a lot more unique projects. Even if they are a little weird and creepy.
