"For most of us the problem isn't that we aim too high and fail- it's just the opposite- we aim too low and succeed."

I hate that its been so long since I posted on this blog. I have been pretty busy these last couple of months, but I think its getting to that time of the year where I can start taking the time and energy and put it back in this blog, at least some of it anyways. I will be posting art work from this last semester at MassArt in the next few days, as I take the professional images of it. I have also changed my header on this blog to a new image of myself at the Chapter IV festival of narratives closing reception at the Gallery at the Piano Factory. It was an amazing show and I was very honored be to able to take part in it. The closing reception was amazing. The work on the wall and pedestals were breathtaking and the performances in the last hour of the show were incredible. It was a wonderful night I'm so glad I didn't miss.
I have been blessed this last semester to be able to take part in so many shows, all at once no less. I have been an artist in shows and curated a show, will be curating another soon! It has been a busy few months!

This is my newest portrait in the Boston codex

Portrait of my brother

Continued work on the portrait of my brother... (I am pretty sure he hates it...)

New Piece, with new additions...

This is a new portrait of my brother. I am finally, and reluctantly (sort-of) adding modern elements to my Maya portfolio. Here's hoping it looks good as it goes along!

Back in the States!!

So!!!

I am really behind in this blog!!! I got really caught up at the end of the semester in getting as much done as I could before I had to leave! I have been back in the states for a month and a half now and have been right back in college life here in Mass. Here are some closing thoughts on my trip!
November was a hectic time of final trips, holidays, the end of classes, saying goodbye to friends from around the globe, and saying goodbye to the amazing country I was visiting.
Last picture of Antigua! 

But! before I left I did some amazing things! The first and foremost of them being our class trip to Copan Honduras, the furthest western Maya site. We only spent a couple of days in Copan, but I think they might have been my favorite of the trip! (maybe not... XD)
Beautiful Copan Valley
We all got time to view the site, wander and ask questions about this incredible site. The uniqueness of the site is apparent immediately, and I was in heaven!
We're just chillin' on the top of an ancient temple... No biggy... XD
 Though this trip was amazing, all things must come to an end, and on the 3rd of December I returned back to Massachusetts, after saying "Hasta Luego" to Guatemala!
Final Spanish Class! 
And it is at endings that we can look back and really reflect on what it was we experienced. My greatest piece of advice? If you find an opportunity of a life time, Go For It, and get everything out of it you can!!! 
From beginning... to end!
