artist I love

in ceramics we were doing lots of projects 5 vases here, and 5 cups there, bowls, and pitchers galore. so when our teacher told us what we were doing my sister decided to get some inspiration to see what we could do that would be fun enter jonathan adler's website here and an obsession had occurred. everything he designs is so whimsical and chic and i love him and would love to intern with him some day...if he takes interns. i love his quirky sense of style and writings and here are some of my favorite things he makes.

Last week my school brought a visiting artist. they do this from time to time with different clubs. this time it was artist margery amdur. she came did a lecture in the afternoon which i attended.(because one of the art professors came in to our classroom and told us about it and our teacher said it was ok to go! YAY!) she went though some of the art she did when she first started out. it was 3-D installation work and some really awesome community art  pieces. she showed us how her style changed and what to do if we get in a creative slump. then at 5 was her gallery opening. which was amazing.

her stuff i amazing i hope you enjoy!

4 pics of...... and artist i love

South carolina

i went to go visit my grandparents for spring break i still have to go though most of the pics i took but here are some i took with my phone.

skittles + coke in glass bottle = best road trip fuel ever! it keeps you awake for the 12 hour drive.

i never understood why they called them the purple mountains majesty un till we got to Tennessee because those mountains looked purple and i was like ohhh that's why.

every morning started with strong coffee.

it was such a nice day the day before we left it was sunny and 75 degrees. then my mom called her friend and she told us that it snowed a lot. so then the rest of the day became a count down to back to the snowy weather. 

 back to reality i have so much stuff going on these next two weeks i will try to blog about it. my sister and i are making take a ways for mark newport. he's visiting our school and doing a performance and were making them so the people who are participating in the performance have something to remember the event by. will try to take photos of the event! were all pretty excited about this. will keep you guys posted!

all roads lead to pittsburgh

on thursday we loaded up the car and took a trip over to pittsburgh to the andy warhol museum. they had the marilyn Monroe exhibit photographs, paintings of other artists, and of course the screen prints that andy did of marilyn.

the museum was huge it has seven floors and a little tip you want to start seeing the galleries from the seventh floor and work your way down. something we didn't know oops.

if you ever have a chance to make it to pennsylvania i suggest going to this museum. its full of color and amazing work.
