Ladies Sasquatch


Ladies Sasquatch by Alyson Mitchell (sp?) is the exhibition in the UofL gallery right now. I remember watching her ArtNow lecture in my first year and I'm sooo excited that the show came to our school!

Project due Tuesday

I've just finised my photo project that is due Tuesday. It is a non narcisistic self portrait - you are in the work but you're using your body to carry it. I took this image and liked it but it wasn't used for the final piece.

More fish :)




I had to post a few more pictures from the fish section at Homes Alive. It's so nice to finally get an impressive petstore in Lethbridge... it's too bad that I had to wait until my last year for it though! They had a huge selection from tropical fish, freshwater fish, hermit crabs, and even star fish!



Homes Alive petstore... Best in Lethbridge!!

Biggest lizzard I have ever seen! Around 2 feet right now... and it's just a baby!

Nice African Grey

I was VERY impressed by the fish section... the tanks are like plasma TVs they're so clean! They have a really impressive fish selection too.

Awesome turtle... he's still a baby so his shell was a little bit soft. The guy let me hold him and feed him out of my hand :) A really fun experience! I just had to keep my fingers out of the way... CHOMP!





October 1


I've been spending a lot of time in my studio lately, working on a painting that is constantly changing (left). I complete the painting everyday and the next time I work on it I paint over it to create something new... it's really neat to see how it changes, and I photograph it so I can look back and see the progress at the end of the semester. While in photo class I witnessed a fly getting its morning coffee BUZZZZZZ... wanna sip? (ew)

Walks Assignment


This is the final product of the walking assignment for Photo3. The first was an observation walk, during which I went down into the coulees and followed a path to the river and back, taking pictures of whatever caught my eye. The second was an intervention walk, for which I took a roll of quarters downtown and followed the streets with parking meters, putting a quarter into each of them until I ran out.
