Way way back....

I've been thinking about my artwork again and about how it really is all about me in some way or the other. I started thinking about one of my earliest rejections... that would be my running for Junior class vice president at Nathan Hale High School.

I lost to Linda Brown... I think I would have made a great Vice President... I was crushed... rejection is hard when you're 15 years old. I guess it's hard anytime, but I suppose if I'm going to be an artist I better get used to it.

Today was busy - I got most of the stuff done that I needed to. I went to Art Chicago this afternoon and introduced myself to Greg Kucera.... better start networking now. I saw work by Tim Roda and Drew Daly (both UW MFA Ceramics grads)... I really like their work.... maybe I'm partial to their work because I know them...

Tomorrow all I have to do is attach my exhibit list, print out a few business cards and look cute for the reception and karaoke!

I better go to bed soon.

errrr... what am I doing?

I'm sitting here trying to figure out what to do next. I've got beautiful postcards to upload and order but I can't save the pages separately to upload them.... I should just go to bed.

I saw my friend Tim Roda today. He gave a talk at Columbia College Museum of Contemporary Photography. I really like his work (I actually own a piece of his that he made in grad school). You all should google him. He's here for the weekend, I said I'd take him around school if he had the time.

Tomorrow I need to finish installing and then I need to work, go to a panel discussion at Art Chicago and then back to school for the Student Leadership dinner.

I am going to bed... not much more can be done tonight.
