as you may or may not know, i am on vacation in lake tahoe. it is beautiful! i would love to tell all about my trip, but i think it would be more benefical if i waited until i have loaded up pictures :)


in any case though, something totally cool/crazy happened yesterday:

carson ellis (who i did a blog post on recently) has become one of my favorite artists. after much thought and delberation, last week i ordered my first piece of artwork, a print, from her website. i love her and have for some time so i decided it was a great investment. Yesterday, i was seeing if she had a fb page i could be a fan of. she didnt, but her personal page came up. there was a friend in common, my photoI teacher, jon. so i write on his wall "are you really friends with carson ellis?" he replies: "ya, we grew up together. shes one of my closest friends. she visited me in chicago just a few weeks ago."

can you even believe that!!!!!???? i mean honestly, what are the odds???

p.s. this is this print:
