Yesterday was the American Thanksgiving (The day of giving thanks and celebrating harvest). For me it wasn’t our normal one. Previous years we would meet up with my dad’s cousins and my second cousins at the country club. We would sit around tables and eat food that had been cooked for us by the club’s [...]

Something I like to do is draw and color. So one day when I was very board and I was in WallmartI thought to myself maybe I should get a paint by numbers and see how it turns out. So I did that and once I got home realized that you mix the colors together, [...]

So fall is beautiful here in Maine but not unrealistic. Purple leaves are some what unrealistic. Yet this pictures does have purple/ pink leaves in it. That’s because I photoshoped it. I took out some of the yellow that was in the picture which left the leaves as a purple color. The tree was originally yellow [...]

This photo I took in the fall when I went apple picking with my families.
I like how it was a lone apple and because of fact that is was the only non-green item in the photo it stood out. But I wanted it to stand out even more. I took the picture and opened it [...]

So over the past probably year I have become really interested in packaging. (The packing of the Vitamin bottle…probably one of my fav.) My interest in packaging has risen out of my increased interest in advertisement. One of the other things I am really interested in packaging is the packaging of beer. For two reasons: [...]
Texture

I decided to post this photo (after not posting for over a week) because I like the texture in it. There isn’t that much doing on, only three simple lines. But there are clearly different types of texture that I think play nicely with each other, the pebbles, the grass, and the smooth stone.

Sorry about the long name but its the truth. It has been a very long election, feels like YEARS (actually only about a year). And tonight its over. Hopefully Obama will win. (Although I feel Mccain could do a good job as pres, Palin makes me shudder). And no matter what tonight makes history. So [...]
