Mountain Projection

Working at this altitude changes everything.

I've made it to Colorado. Wild, wild west, indeed.

Commissions are in heavy season but are nowhere near as hectic as last year. It's enough for me to really invest a good portion of myself into each piece, making it closer to something that would have meaning in the greater context of my works.

The MOUNTAINS change everything.

I've been tested physically, pedaling harder up the hills, breathing harder as I pedal, and becoming much more aware that oxygen is a commodity. My sore muscles sing about how I scrambled up the side of a rocky incline at 13,000 feet above sea level.

My life has felt like it's going the direction I've been aiming for so long.

I will be sure to tell everyone that you said hi when I go back to the club on Monday,and I will tell Monet about her Fred drawing, but she hasn't been coming to the club since you and Suriya left. Welll that is probably because she does'nt like the new art assistant,well neither do Keisha and Shandelle. In my opinion he is okay, but he is to uptight and doesn't challenge us in our art projects ( yeah he makes us do progect with crayons).
