This is my pasta sculpture(s) for my one of my art finals. The assignment was to chose a collection of something (in this case pasta) and turn display it in an interesting way. The added twist is that the objects couldnt look like anything else. So I attempted to make them be a type of "building blocks". This was much more time intensive more difficult than I originally thought. Each pasta scupture took around 3 to 4 hours a piece, not counting the few I had to throw away because they were too similar to an everyday object. The one made out of spaghetti noodles took 7 hours to complete (my patience grew). I am proud of this project, it by no means is my finest work, but with how hard I worked on it, I am happy with its outcome.

There have been several Christmas events, but I have foolishly forgotten my camera for all of them except this recent cookie decorating :) But thats alright, because I am pretty proud of them!  I love how tiny they are


 There was never a better weekend then Thanksgiving Weekend! I was able to see my niece for the first time and held her every chance I could get :) I spent an enormous amount of time with the ones I loved.  The five days I got to spend at home soon had me feeling like I had never left. Nate even got to start a grease fire while cooking the turkey














Group Trip to Chicago :) It was fun to visit Millennium Park again and feel familiar with the park area. I also got to visit the the Chicago Art Institute which is an amazing place with endless amounts of art work to look at. Absolutely overwhelming amazing
