BLACKOUT

The days before my Prismacolor markers. The difference a good marker can make is amazing. Aside from that, this is one of my favorites gowns. It reminds me of my senior prom dress that I got for a sweet deal at Bloomingdales, but much elaborate. It actually has a long tail, but my lack of equipment forced me to cut it off. I wish I had fancy events to attend to give me an excuse to pull my dress out from deep inside my closet back at home.

SPRING TIME!

Spring break has past, a new quarter has begun. I've been failing miserably at keeping this blog updated, but my life has been unusually calm for the last few weeks. Being home for the break was like refresher course. I ate home-cooked food, got to see my closest friends/cousins/family, and I was on a high by the longevity of SUN during that week. Daly City is known as Fog City...The sun is a rare and precious thing to us. So what else would you do on such beautiful days but frolic around the City!!!

Now back to reality. This quarter actually seems very relaxed, and dare I say...easy? It might be because I'm only working 9 hours a week due to my conflicting schedules. But for now, it's a good thing because the fashion show is coming up in a little more than a month!!! AAAHHH! must work work work!!

OFF TO CLASS! will post pics soon =)

FINALE

One final project for 2D/3D. There is (or was) a 3D version of this painting....but it crashed into pieces while I was walking out the door. =/ I will attempt to reconstruct it once I get back to Irvine, so we shall see how that turns out.

For now, I am back home and it feels great. I've been welcomed with never-ending offerings of great food and my tummy's quite happy. Home-cooked meals are truly the real luxuries of life. While I fatten myself, I really need to start sewing. I'm sad to say, I'm not as motivated to do the work compared to last year, most likely because I've experienced the amount of work and time it takes to get everything done. I just need a push!

MY KIND OF GEOMETRY

I think all this geometric/organic stuff I've been doing in my 2D/3D class is really rubbing off in all of my work. I'm actually kind of sad that the class has come to an end. I really love this design though. I wish I had to skills to make it right this moment.

I've just finished my finals!! WOOHOO! I'm making the 6 hours drive up to Norcal alone tomorrow so that should be a blast. I'm not sure how much of a break this will be with me having to get a move on on the sewing for the show. But home always brings the procrastinating-lazy bum-sleeping until noon everyday person out of me. I look foward to it.

PINK ROSE

I need a bigger scanner =/.

FIG Fashion Show 2007-2008

These are some of my designs for my first fashion show last year! I'm working on this year's line at the moment so keep a look out for updates on the show. AND COME TO THE SHOW, WHICH WILL BE SOME TIME IN MAY!

CATCH UP

So I'm pretty much failing at keep this thing updated. BUT I do have a legitimate excuse...at least I think so. Finals are coming up, but for someone in the Studio Art major, finals come a week or 2 earlier than everyone else. From last Saturday to about 5am Thursday, I was working on a final painting project (which I will post as soon as I take a picture of it).

GOOD NEWS! I was interviewed for the New University and was featured in last week's issue! WOOT WOOT!! Here's the link, if you're interested.

In other news, I've finally had my designers' meeting for the Fashion Interest Group fashion coming up next quarter! I'm so excited for it because we actually have a good number of student designers this year. I'll keep you guys updated on this as the stress of sewing builds.

Just to give you something to look at...
