It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.

Hello all!

Yes, slowly but surely, spring is beginning to shine through in Philadelphia. And spirits are subsequently brightening.

I wish I could say I had a lovely Easter, but my weekend was packed with a photo shoot, canvas priming, of course food, and maybe even a little love. You know what they say about Spring after all.

I’m making surprising progress on my most recent endeavor! I’m beginning to actually come through on some of my crazy schemes. Most of the time my brain pattern goes something like this.

THOUGHTS:

“I’m so fat… I should be skinnier… I should totally start running more… I know! I’ll get up at 6 AM every morning and run 3 miles and only eat salads! I’m gonna be one skinny minnie by June.”

REALITY:

(June rolls around)… “I feel so fat… I should’ve been exercising all year… cake.”

So the fact that this extra- curricular painting is even in existence in the middle of the semester is nothing short of a miracle (Maybe I’m in the Easter spirit?)

I’ll try and post pictures of my progress tonight , but to be honest with you, I’m looking at a couple of all nighters ahead of me.

But I do have some fun pictures from the photoshoot!

Me and my best best best friend Tori!

(clearly, our photoshoot did not take place in a disgusting locker room)

She also has a pretty cool blog, you can find it here:

Here’s a really horrendous cell phone picture of the team!

AND! I finally got to meet baby Layla!

I don’t think she hates her red- headed step- aunt 🙂

Like my fake eyelashes?!

Alright well, back to the grind! I’ll see you all on the other side, hopefully with a new painting!
