St. Elmo's

The other day, my pieces that were hanging in the local coffee shop, St. Elmo's, were taken down--they had been up since June this summer.

Some of the pieces that were hanging (there was a total of seven) are below. Everything that was up was a collage, some of the work was made in high school, and some of it was made recently in college.

Exhibition at the Smithsonian

This past week was exciting for me because I received an email the other day about an exhibition that will be up in March. I had completely forgotten that when I was interning at the National Portrait Gallery this past summer, I applied to a juried exhibition that's only open to Smithsonian employees--thus I had to apply while I was an intern. This week was when they were notifying artists whose work was chosen for the show.

I didn't expect that my work was going to be accepted, and now I'm really excited. The exhibition will be at the Smithsonian Ripley Center which is on the mall in Washington, D.C.

So if you're in Washington, D.C., you should check out the exhibition. It will be up from March 20th-May 18th 2008.
