As most of you know I ended up coming back from S. America a little earlier than planned and I never got the chance to write a conclusion to my blog. Well, now I've been home for about 2 months and the year is coming to an end! About a month after I returned to the states I moved into an apartment in Medford. I actually live right on the line of Somerville and it is a great location. I can walk to Porter and Davis Sq. and surprisingly, I never get stuck in traffic here :)
I participated in the Emerson Winter Market as a visiting artist the first weekend in December. This was the first year I was personally invited to the show - in the past I did it with John, my glassblowing instructor at Salem State. Thanks to everyone who came and visited me there it, the weekend was definately a success!
I've also been participating in photo shoots as a model, makeup artist, and wardrobe designer with one of my friends who is a hair stylist. We've been collaborating with local photographers and it has been lots of fun. Hopefully it will lead to some paid work in the future so I can finance a new camera!
