So today I’m finally going to let you in on a little secret, are you ready? Okay here it is: I’m getting ready to apply to the most amazing MFA program and I am so excited! Getting my MFA has been one of my goals for a few years and I spent a lot of time looking for the program that was “just right”. Now that I’ve found the program I need to whip my portfolio into shape. I’ll probably be posting little inspiration/portfolio updates/hopefully-not-complaining-about-portfolio-work posts while I’m putting it together.
For now, some pretty things that are inspiring me today…
Spencer Finch‘s beautiful installation, Moonlight and Moondust
I really love his work and this installation is just so lovely.
Joel sent me this photo a few days ago and I really love the idea of tea tins turned planters…
A pretty, monochromatic room
Love these bird houses…

This Monsters of Folk song is exactly how I’ve been feeling lately.
Especially the lines, “Cause I like where I’m livin’, And I like what I do, And I like what I’m seein’ . . . When I’m lookin’ at you .” I hope you like what you’re doing today!
