Guggenheim visit

I had the opportunity on Saturday to visit the Guggenheim Hermitage in Las Vegas http://www.guggenheimlasvegas.org/ at the Venetian, with my amazing girlfriend Andrea. What a pleasure! I was finally able to lay my eyes on the priceless treasures I have always admired. From Monet, Picasso, and some Van Goe, I also saw some other pieces I enjoyed. Here are a few I really enjoyed, I will place them in order top my fav. and so on.

Summer in Zeeland - Piet Mondrian

Mountains at St. Remy - Vincent Van Goe

Man with crossed arms - Paul Cezanne

Still Life with gingerpot II - Piet Mondrian

Still life with cherries - Juan Griss

The Palazzo Ducale Claude Monet

Still Life - Fruit dish and pitcher - Pablo Picasso

Some things I found interesting: The man with crossed arms, was painted using two images taken from different points in the room. This is why his face is skewed. Piet Mondrian and the way he breaks down objects in several pieces. The absolute vibeness of Van Goe's painting, only appreciated face to face with the painting, same goes for the Monet. Still life with cherries looks like it is made from fabric, which is a fantastic manipulation of the paint. And my favorite painting, Summer in Zeeland - Is overwhelming, the canvas is 8'x6' It was the gazing piece in the gallery, completely drawing you in.

I encourage everyone to go. Please post some of your favortie paintings or museums! I am sure there are some places and pieces I should look out for.

T-shirts now available

Here are some of our t-shirts that are available online! We do custom orders and can create anything you would like. We are also in the process of having our shirts printed on organic friendly cotton.

This is the first steps in getting the ideas out. I must admit I am excited! This is some of the steps in the right direction - that is doing things (I will write about this more, as it constitutes the reasons behind the blog).

Welcome!

I bet your asking yourself why your here?

This will become my place to share the interesting journy my life is going to take. Now a little about myself (promise I will try and make this short and sweet). I am currently 21 last I checked. A hard (sometimes) working landscape architecture student, trying my hardest to bust out of the confined walls of design school, one that I won't elect to mention here, no feelings hurt.

I am currently involed with a great, creative bunch of individuals at Continuous! http://www.cont-design.com! Where we are constantly trying to break boundries and have fun at that same time.


So the journy begins!!!
