I LOVE my church. Granted, going to a small church means that everyone and their mama is up in your business… BUT gotta love the LOVE in that group. For our 4th year anniversary of our church, we had the theme of “Country/Western.” Being folk of the city, aka Los Angeles, we un-edumacated folk weren’t quite sure what “Country Western” looked like. So we all just grabbed some jeans, flannel, cowboy hats, hay, and handle bar mustaches and had ourselves a hay- ol’ time. =) ahahahahaa.
Here are a few. The rest is on my facebook page. CLICK HERE to go there! And trust when I say, you really want to see the rest of these!
SO. MUCH. FUN.





I didn’t realize how much I hate school until school let out and the BIGGEST sigh of relief enveloped me. I started smiling and I couldn’t stop after I turned in my last papers of the school year. I’m almost done!!! 3 more classes people, THREE MORE!!!!
So I bought some studio lighting equipment and wanted to test them out. I set the whole thing up in my living room and voila! STUDIO! I did my hair and makeup (CAKED on the makeup, hair extensions, TEASED my hair like crazy), then I proceeded to paint my face. AAAHHHH, the creative juices were flowing!! Random paintings. Just drew whatever.
Here’s the results! LOVE!!









Louia is FIERCE! The spectrum of personalities in this world is fascinating from sober to subtle, fierce and ferocious, passive and perky, balanced and brass… I LOVE people! We make up the rainbow that creates variety and sprinkles. Louia did a portrait session with me and I celebrated HIM!
Here are a few to sample. Click here to see the rest.
