Design


As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together

As of late, I have not been the least bit inspired in my photography. So instead I decided to showcase the collage I designed as a graduation present to Sam, and a prop for his grad party. I took Design this past year and it really got me interested in the more digital side of art. I got to play around with Adobe Illustrator which I had never used before and was able to create some really nice projects with it. So, for this collage I got to place things where I wanted and got to make it look how I wanted it to look. I think it turned out really nice. I am ready to do more design-related pieces in AP Art next year and am looking towards more of an emphasis on graphic design for my 2D portfolio.

If You're a Bird, I'm a Bird


They said if I think with my heart that I won't get very far
But that can't possibly be true
I don't wanna know what life would be like without you

Because I Miss Him


I do want you to know
I hold you up above everyone

No, I did not take this photograph. And yes, he's been gone for less than 48 hours. But I miss him. Although, he's finally growing up. He's becoming a man, and for that, I am extremely proud of him and everything I know he can and will accomplish.

My brother, my best friend.

Summer Soundtrack: All Time Low


Well, they can take, take, take the kids from the summer
But they'll never, never, never take the summer from me
It was the very first time that I lost my mind for a week
-
Everybody's living like they're crazy in love

For me, this summer is all about photography and music. I am fascinated by the way in which art and music relate and how they can become one. This is why you will see me adding lyrics to every single one of my posts. The photos I take and the music I listen to show who I am.

Both influence me. Both inspire me.

Forgive and Forget


You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down
-
It's too late to apologize

Monkey Bar Inception


Tonight, we are young
So let's set the world on fire, we can burn brighter
Than the sun

Tonight, goofing around and letting loose on the PLE playground brought me back to much simpler times. Times of juice boxes, cooties, and hair bows. I was able to breathe in the summer air and think about what life was like back then. The world was innocent. Reminiscing for a moment, I was happy.

I imagine this row of monkey bars to be a portal that takes me back to those times. When issues today didn't even exist.

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive?

Cheers to Summer


If I could find you now, things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
