It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in.

P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center is an addition to the MoMA Museum of Modern Art; which opened in 1963, and has been affiliated with P.S.1 since January 2000. MoMA young architects exhibit their work at the center in Queens, NY. The center also houses the National/International Projects series, quite an honor in the art world. Although the center is an addition to the MoMA; meaning the work is mostly modern and the walls ceilings and floors of the center are molded into the imagination of young architects, the museum itself is actually one of the oldest in the country. But it wasn't as known UNTIL the MoMA came into play. The center is literally play-dough to the young, modern, and brilliant minds of artists around the country and the world. The physical presence of the museum is the molded imagination of young architects from the MoMA, but the museum is also famous for housing the famous internet art radio station WPS1, since 2004. Not to mention some of the most recent exhibitions are raunchy and completely and totally revolved around the act of sex and the sexual being. Most artists, even modern artists, relate their work to sex in some form of another, but the exhibitions in PS1 don't relate to sex or hint sex, they are sex. Pablo PIcasso might have seemed out there in early 20th century Paris, but this work is the first of it;s kind, and quite expressive/impressive. Daring and totally imaginative, PS1 is a playground for the brilliant minds of visual artists.

i want to be a visual artist more then anything. the nerves and goosebumps that run through my body that pulse through my feelings my five senses my memories my creativity is inspiring and overwhelming when i create art that can be seen and touched. i'm a good artist, but i'm a better writer. i have low confidence but i can say that i can express properly through ink and paper, keyboard and computer functions. proper as my definition of proper. proper as in i can express all that matters and is meaningful through words. i can wrap my mind around different areas of the brain and how each expresses onto paper. that's why when i come to a dilemma it's easiest for me to get it out and solve it by laying it out on paper. a projection of my most tender feelings and misunderstood thoughts on paper, made into an array that almost resembles a piece of visual art. i miss the time when i woke to his name and his words his gold eyes his thick lips i miss when i could see everything i had to live for and everything id have forever pulsating through him and onto my mind. i dont want to have to fabricate tales to steer his attention into caring. i want to wake up again and know i'm on this thoughts and i'm what keeps his heart beating. my sighs are the throbs of his veins..or they used to be. i dont know what to think/ is he nonchalant now because he feels comfortable with us and secure that i am his and feels he no longer needs to treat me delicately and with constant care? maybe i dont know anything and he doesnt care and he just says he does because he pities me. pities me because he knows me better then i know myself, and unfortunately my definition is a sad one because of my history.look it up i swear

the invisible dog is much like the art work it houses. a multi media of creative and artistic collaborations located @ an historical building in Brooklyn, New York. Historical in it's age but also inventive, not just because of it's current purpose, but from it's original purpose as well. The invisible dog was an old factory in the 1950s until the 1990s that created dog leashes with muzzles in mass productions, and people in America would actually walk down the streets with a wired leash and empty dog muzzle. Women at Studio 54 would be seen with this trendy yet ridiculous accessories. When the fad ended the factory was abandoned until a french man with a degree in theatre came to America to resurrect it. The old beautiful red brick factory in Brooklyn was then made into an exhibit of art, a theatre, and studio space for young and happening artists. A building that was molded into anything any artist that strolled by wanted it to be. Not to mention the theatre built in the basement. Each floor either spaces/ studios for artists, vintage accessories on sale, a theatre, or artists varying exhibits. Not to mention the elevator that takes you to each floor is an actual moving room, a room that's an art exhibit all in itself. Not to mention the vintage accessories, like my white leather hand studded bracelet, originally 5$ and then given to me for free by the french man himself, is a great way to remember the invisible dog forever.

My paint was a splattered mess. I needed to soak my plate for @ least an hour in hot water if i had any hopes in removing the paint mess. I had used thousands of different mixes in order to complete an english assingment where i chose to paint a scene from Pride and Prejudice but incorporate Jane Eyre imagery, boy i lucked out! But alas! Instead of boiling the plate and removing the foot marks to my creative path..I will start a new creative path. I began to chip off the dry paint clumps with scissors and and a knife. After 30 minutes and a large pile of pure colored and tie dye colored chips, I applied them to my next idea. I spent another 30 minutes cutting out scraps from the Sunday Styles section of the NY Times and i used these newspaper scraps, all carefully selected from articles about painting and bouquets of flower arrangements, i used them to collage the replica face of a woman! I applied the paint chips to the eyes of the newspaper woman, and drew funky red glasses out of charcoal around the paint chipped eyes. I drew MArilyn Monroe-esque hair in ink and pencil (are they the same?), and lastly cut out Rocky Horror Picture Show lips for my main ladies lipz!! She is wonderfully beautiful. I feel like ive created a frankenstein, but a frankenstein to my own taste and artistic style =)
ps. i HATE smiley faces like this > :)
i ONLY like these > =)

Girls want to look pretty now?
How preposterous girls dressing in floral?colorful chunky jewels? Hair weeped delicately and make up natural and to a minimal?
Sounds nuts!
But actually clean cut and girly is back in style for female fashionistas.
For a while girls in day to day USA and girls of the red carpet were reflecting styles like Balmain military run way looks and girl looks that border-lined you're childhood sweetheart strapped to a motorcycle and obsessed with replicating Bob Dylan in his 1960s iconic phase. Girls were pinned up with smudged dark make up, rips and tears, leather lined in fur, bullets and studs, platform weaponed heals, messy hair that appeals to your bed more then your parents, over sized clothes, and tattoos galore.
But now girls are fresh and clean, and have even started to use make up remover and combs. Hair is swept back delicately and natural and make up is limited and flesh toned. Dresses are an essential and are made for girls without the boyfriend expression, turquoise spring toned colors reflect off naturally organically replenished skins and faces. Although jewelry is still over the top, it's gem stones as opposed to distressed leather with studs. Girls are putting away rock and roll streaks from the 90s and taking out their spring time favorites, with a dash of chunky native american authentic jewels.

layers of cake like marie antoinette.
madame deficit used light pink and dark pink,
cherry blossom and delicatessen pearls.
she wanted to clean rebellions with baked treats.
layers of sky like the clash of feathers on thy bird.
blanket of sky envelopes trees of green.
envy green arms taste blue and white frosting.
just testing before the real taste.
layers of Death in his royal carriage.
Death floats to layers of fiery fear.
we observe closely.
100 years in a layer sensation.
