School has ended for the summer, so I figured now was a good of a time as any to give an update on what's been happening:

This year I have started to actually do some commission work, and I'm looking do some more.
I would really love to do some senior drawings, and even wedding photos, so that's one of my goals for the Summer/year.

As a group in my school a bunch of us (both male and female!) to donate our hair in honor of Amanda who past away, for Locks of Love. I just wanted to say that I thought it was a big success and we got over 40 ponytails! I hope we're doing it again next year!

In May I entered some pieces into the school's art show, and I won "Best of Pencil" on a drawing ([link]) of the talented Lara Jade ([link]) and "Second" under pencil on "Armito Hess," "Third" under pencil on "Nyra and the Snow" ([link]), I also won "First" under varied and mixed media for my "Light Weider (Digital)," also under pastel I received an honorable mention on my "Make Your Return." When the student and staff voted I came out with the "Rock Star Award" which means over all I got the most votes!
It seems all my hard work has paid off! I'm really excited.
Some of my friends also won some awards. Dez ([link]) won "Third" for her paining, "Japan," and Courtney won "First" under pencil drawing for her picture of a baby who I believe is named Jack, but the title escapes me as of this moment!!

I'm working on my editing skills, and trying to get better with my photography. Being that I am close to getting my long awaited new camera!

This summer I will be entering more are into the fair, wish me luck.
I also be going on a Mission Trip to New Orleans! So hopefully that will be going well for me...

That's all I have for now, for those who care.
