ReMasters of the Universe

This is another one of those "Finally!" posts. As you can see on the flyer, the show date was August 11th. It is now Sept. 24th. And they say things happen faster with technology...

This event was a really big deal for me, because it was the first show that I've actually been approached and asked to be in. I was thrilled, because Brooke E. (who curated me,) is a phenomenal artist. (Check her out at : http://www.unfriendlythings.com/)

The theme of the show (and hence, the name) was to take a work from one of the masters, and recreate it in our own style.

My choices?

"Woman With a Teacup" by Hokusai

My version. I didn't have time to scan it properly, so this is the best picture I have. :(

I painted Hokusai's "Great Wave" on the teacup. See what I did there? :3

"The Last Supper" by da Vinci

My version. I'm a little bit disappointed with the colours. I wish I had kept it at red, white, and black, with maybe a couple of other spot colours. I love the layout, but, again... I'm not used to using colour, so...

(I didn't have time to scan this one either. Bummer.)

The Skrillex Weekend (Day Two! With Carousels!)

In the post below, you can read all about The Skrillex Weekend Day 1.
Finally, I'm getting around to posting Day 2.
I hung out with Sami, who I've been super good friends with since sixth grade. We had a mini-photo shoot at Bridgestreet.

Most of the photos are after the jump.

My nails were so long!!! All 10 of them! I was SO happy, because it's rare that they all grow out that long.

Oh, and that face? Ahem.... I'm making fun of my sister, kinda. Somehow, this deranged face kinda pulls the whole I-have-bright-pink-hair-and-shaved-half-my-head look together.

The Skrillex Weekend (Day One! With Animals!)

Finally posting this. Whew...
This was my "Last Hurrah" before moving back to Nashville for good at the end of the summer. (Previously, I had been living in Huntsville during the week and Nashville on the weekends.) I got to see 2 of my closest friends that I hadn't seen all summer.
Of course, pictures happened.
A TON of pictures happened.

I got my hair shaved into a "Skrillex" (sorta), held/petted/loved on a ton of cute animals, and had one of the best smoothies of my life.


Day 1 was me an' Ookami:

Most of the photos are after the jump.

"The lovechild of Skrillex and a My Little Pony"

In the dressing room at H&M. I got this badass skull butterfly shirt. :D

I don't think Ookami has gotten hers yet.
