Sometimes it's a message left from someone you really care about...
Other times it's just having the knowledge that they care.
I'm passionate about a lot of things, but i forgot about Sinatra, Art, music and travel.
These things were lost for a while...but recently, I've found reason to let them come out again.
My paintings reveal that I've been inspired. Below is a painting I'm still working on, a portrait of our African American model. I just love the warmer colors that come with creating a convincing dark skin tone.
As graduation approaches I am confident and optimistic about the future. Even though I am aware of how hard the world can be, I'm very ready to embrace the changes and all of the wonderful things that may be waiting once school is over.
"I've got you under my skin.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
I tried so not to give in.
I said to myself: "This affair never will go so well."
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well,
I've got you under my skin."
~Frank Sinatra
*Edit: I just found out that some of my artwork will be featured in Temple Univerity's art show on April 15-April 18 in Tyler School of Art!

I can't wait to tell you how much I care about you. And never stop telling you. I'm glad you're listening to music again, and enjoying art, because that's all part of what makes you who you are. And all part of the reasons I'm continuously falling for you.
I really love the painting, you're totally right, the colors are fantastic. You're so talented, darling, which is why it's so awesome that you're going to have your art in a show...so exciting! Congratulations, love.
There's a lot to look forward to after graduation. Because no matter what happens, i will feel a glow, just thinking of you. And the way you look tonight.
