Senior Show "Shake Your Chains" Done and with Great Success!!!

Finally. FINALLY! The Senior Show "Shake Your Chains" is over and done, and with tremendous success!  Lots of people came to see the art work.  It was a lot of fun! Thanks to all of those who made this show possible, and thanks very much to those who came.  Hopefully, this won't be my last show, but even if it is, that downer won't stop me from simply creating for the sake of creating.

Here are a few pics that I took during the exhibition:

Myself with fellow artists Diana Bonilla and Jessica York

Myself with my bestie since Junior High. I actually got her to come!

With the ever-so-fabulous Holly Tempo!

Other besties from high school. It's always more fun with friends!  :)

My high school art teacher came! After all these years, she still cares. She is truely awesome!

My oil paintings in one of the studio galleries.  Look at the people!  =D

Here is my work. I thought I should get a good photo of them before the crowd came.
