from evanston, illinois.

i'm currently in a summer program at Northwestern University, taking a three week AP Chemistry course. it's super challenging because of the accelerated pace, and i've been so stressed that i've almost depleted a whole drawer of chocolate. however, the chemical reactions and molecular structures have actually got me thinking in new perspectives artistically. atoms and compounds can make for some very cool drawings!

updates

arrrgh, sorry for the lack of posts. i currently have no computer access, so i will upload pictures later.

after north carolina, i went to visit my friends in charleston, sc. that place is beautiful, and we spent the majority of the time in the pool or on the beach after dark. i want do to a drawing involving water and light, but i want it to be a spinoff- so that is still a work in progress.

i've also spent a week at uChicago. the architecture is granndd, but i didn't get much time to draw. i did take pictures, however, and i'm planning on sketching the strange gargoyles.

there were a few small art galleries / shows that i've visited. there was a dismal one in the holocaust museum, and there was one of stained glass, and one of silk art. they're all really fascinating.

i hope to have more artwork accomplished by the end of this week, before i leave again.
