"Family Library of Cats" Beth Heppenstall
Another gem from my collection.

My painting teachers for the winter quarter are Greg Eltringham, Todd Schroeder, and Laura Mosquera. Maybe if I get them hits on their websites I will get extra credit (not that they or I need either...). Check out the fine art dear readers.

Some scanned images from Harter's Picture Archive.

It is one of many books I have enjoyed recently.

Must catch up live journal with blog. Here we go.
These are from JJ's first stay at my house.

Having A Baby : It is my first photography series and I’m certain that it will grow/change. I will begin posting the images a few at a time, but you can see the whole thing on my (under construction) website.

Check it out!

A lot of the photos on this site aren't really to my liking, but some of them are very impressive. I enjoyed exploring!

Hey everyone, I'm doing a project for my alternative media class and need some help. The assignment is to do a subversive fashion project and mine will include as many pictures as possible of people making a "model face". I'm trying to include lots of photos of people from outside the normal (skinny, symmetrical, young) model category. I've been going up to people and asking them to pose and, though they tend to feel silly, they usually say yes. I've gotten a lot of great pictures so far but for my project to work the way I want I'll need a lot more. So, if you could send me a picture of you, and anyone else willing, giving the camera that silly "I'm bored, I'm hot, and you love it" face that would be great! This does not have to be done with a great camera, you can do it with your web cam or camera phone or anything.You don't need to touch them up at all either, this is about real people, pores and all. The finished product will be published online and possibly in an installation.
Thanks gorgeouses!

Yessss, got to be on Warren Ellis' blog today. He invited everyone to send a picture of their message to the world on what is said to be the most miserable day of the year (today)and that he would try to post them. However, it kind of back fired, considering it pretty much made my day. My theory is that he was just trying to give everyone a fun little activity to make up for the sucky day- what a pal.




This is George.

Bah, I had to design a logo for my computer art class and these are my idea sketches. I think I'm going with the Whalephant, though I don't see why I need a logo...


This one is based on my family crest...cause apparently my family has one.



Whalephant and I are very close, I like to paint him.

Self Portrait Day- why not

I woke up today and realized that I like being named Beth. This is a personal, momentous moment.
Positive thought about myself of the day: My name is Beth.

Ecclesiastes 1-3, from Last Minute Portfolio

Zachariah, Star Boys 3


Pen, Star Boys 4

Decided last minute to apply to SCAD, and since all my art is lost in storage among the family trinkets - I had like a week to make a portfolio which I hope will get me some money for school. Ian helped so much, he is responsible for a lot of the brilliant titles (which i normally leave out altogether). He also stayed up all night with me just about every night for moral support, three cheers to the boy! So I'm going to be posting that over the next week or so, it is mainly photography and painting....

My summer with Ian has been amazing. First we went up North to visit his entire family, and sure it was a little stressful (mainly cause I got sick) but they were great. Then we came back to Savannah and got all tucked in to our home. I've been learning how to ride a bike in the city which is getting easier though still freaks me out a bit. Also have been playing some flute, reading some Sandman, and just being happier and felt more at home than I have in a while.
Anywho, these are two photos from when Ian's dad let me play on his drum set. the first one i took and the one where i'm totally rocking out ian took.
:) summer timeeeeee

hope to fix that

The kids were all playing in the pool the other day and I used a roll of film on them. I'm going to miss this backyard, but not the way the bees tease. I'm supposed to call people to hang with while I'm in town but it's just easier to stay in and watch Short Circuit and Monk.
It has felt like the day before a big trip for a week and a half now and its a strange way to live.








i will figure out a better way to post pictures this summer, i promise

So I was going to leave school friday, but then on Thursday I agreed to be a last minute actor in a short film some friends were making. We started filming Sunday at like 7 am and didn't finish til like 8 30 that night; then of course we had to have an after party to celebrate our success. It was tons of fun. I play a rather masculine girl, Courtney/Dylan, who identitfies as male and who does not get along with her ridiculous roommate, Bart. Bart refuses to respect her and in the beginning he throws me in the shower, at one point I slap him in the face while choking him on the floor, at another point he is working out with two jugs of wine, at ANOTHER point i rub heads with a girl while our hair is covered in aloe, and in the end we happily wrap him in tape. Sooooo pretty much it's going to be the best short film ever. And I've never acted before but I think it went well. Here is a picture of me as Courtney and Blacki as "Bart":

and now that that and all my stupid finals are done i'm at home for a little while, trying to sell some of my stuff so I can go to Savannah and start an amazing, broke, fun summer
