Falling into love

(acrylic and ink on canvas board)

We are a spiral spinning,

and I will follow you in as far as you are falling.

(acrylic and ink on paper)

And when you appear,

all the suns sound in my body

bells shake the sky,

and a hymn fills the world.

Art is already stimulating, but with titles like these it is a whole other experience. I found this on Free People's blog and couldn't wait to check out the rest of Mark Warren Jacque work. 

"Saying Fuck It and Letting Go All Together"

(acrylic, ink and enamel on panel)

It's beautiful & strange, we were drawn together, as to leave a sense of connection that we never

want to lose touch with.

So, what do you want to do?

"I didn't know what I wanted to do, 

but I always knew the woman I wanted to be." 

-Diane Von Furstenberg

With graduation coming up in less than three month, I keep getting the "So what do you want to do?" question followed by the "you do know what you want to do with your life, right?" look. I hate them both. I think I can blame growing up in Westchester County for that. I have no idea what I want to do, but I've always known the kind of path I want to go down. I want to be an experienced woman. I don't know if I will ever have a set career because there are too many things I want to try. Isn't that the point of life, to experience? I'm not sure when sitting on a computer a week after graduation updating my Facebook status because I'm so bored, hoping that one day I'll work my way up in this damn company, became something to strive for? Whatever it is that I do, I will be successful (whatever that means) because deep down I know I want to make a mark on the world. 

That's enough thinking for now. It's 3:47 in the morning and if I don't learn to sleep I won't be able to experience anything.
