big news!

I wanted to wait to write about my big news until I had pictures to go along with the story,

but it doesn't look like that is going to happen until this weeked.

So, here it is~

I am the new artist in residence at Zootown Arts Community Center {ZACC}!

It is a terrific nonprofit arts community center that is located just a few blocks away from my house.

I will have an "official" studio & act as gallery manager

along with the other artist in residence~ Chris Koelling.

So, it is official~

I will graduate with my master's in economics in May,

and enter the world, not as an economist, but as a full-time artist & freelance illustrator.

I am so excited to become further imbedded in my community & my neighborhood!

I will make sure to take a few pictures of the building and my studio space this weekend.

Also, I will be restucturing my blog a little bit~

The first change will be a weekly post I've named

{gratitude + thursday}

I will be featuring an artist whose work I am grateful for,

along with things that I have felt blessed with in the week prior.

Look for it every Thursday!
