Oh where to start?

I recently graduated this past May with a B.F.A. in studio art and a minor in art history, and I’m trying to figure out what on earth life is like after college. I have moved back into my parent’s house, because like many I couldn’t get a solid job when I graduated. I have an internship at an art museum in D.C.,  a part-time job, and I am also taking an Italian class. Having these three things was part of my plan to help me towards my aspiration of being a curator or exhibitionist.

The plan has kind of overrun me though. I don’t think I understood how time-consuming this was all going to be and the effect that was going to have on me. So now I’m trying to figure out how to ground myself once more, and fill my life with things that make me happy. For me, that is creativity and inspiration.  It is like finding a little bit of love. It’s such a high, and even though I may not find it for awhile, that little bit is enough to hold me until next time. Predominatly that is art for me.  I focused on ceramics in school, but I can no longer do that because my body developed too many problems.  Photography is another medium I have always admired, and I’m now going to push to go out there and take my own. Another bit is baking/cooking/anything food related. It’s just such a joy to do this for people (and of course yummy too!)

So this blog will be filled with my own creative musings, and also the creative ideas of others (of course I will always link back to where I found it).  Whatever makes my heart happy as I try to figure out how I want my life to be after college. Cominciamo!
