My New Job

I was looking through my blog today and I realized, I never told you I got a JOB!!! Haha It's temporary but I have to say hands down it's the best job I've had yet. It's simple but I love the people. My official title is an "Art Greeter" I work at an art installation in the city. I'm not to sure I want to share details about my whereabouts on the internet but, when the job is over I will definitely share and post a couple of pictures up. Oh and it's better pay than my last job, so who can complain :)

Thoughts on life and God Part 1 (10-13-12 )

What do morals matter if we just happened? What do kindness, ambition or fairness have to do with this life if we're all just one cosmic mistake? I had a thought just now. Without God, a higher power or creator what is our purpose? To have a chance at life? What does the chance matter if all we're going to do is die and go no where anyway? I struggle with believing in a higher power at times and religion. At the end of the day I'm sure we've all wondered and debated the answer to the question "What is life's purpose? What is my purpose?" I think it makes sense that somewhere out there, we were purposefully thought of and created. No matter what the intent of the creator. In my mind it makes more sense in all our human ambition that the fight to be something, make a difference or to argue for a cause etc if it was all towards a goal and purpose. That's my thought of the day. What do you believe is your purpose? Do you believe in God? 

I Believe in Fairies!!!

Big Summer Update & Happy 4th :P

Hello!!!

This summer of being unemployed, I have managed to stretch some savings and make some money here and there enough to sustain me to this point. As of now I'm at the very, very end of my funds. I am so happy that I took the chance and left my old job to really search and figure out what I wanted to do, it's a decision that I still don't regret. Although it's been difficult at times, I know I do have the potential to just go out and find a job with a little effort. I also have the potential to hustle my way through anything. I have a great family support behind me and I am thankful for that(no matter how much I want to go out into the world and be independent, NOW) I managed to ace an interview and get a job offer( The people were great but I declined it for a number of practical reasons.)

In between all of this I have managed to enjoy my first summer since graduating highschool. As my mom said I have been on since graduation, whether it be jumping straight into college from h.s., jumping right into work after college. This is the first summer I have fully just "lived up." 

Things I've done this Summer:

I've been to the beach twice

I went out to Astoria pool to learn to swim

I finally made it out to a Hillsong connect group

 Went to South street seaport with my best friend and we ate all day haha.

I saw a pre-screening of a hilarious movie Pitch Perfect. 

I sat on the lawn at Bryant Park for hours waiting for The Wizard of Oz to start. 

It was like falling in love all over again.

I saw the Avengers twice

Made new friends

Had a picture day with an old friend  

Had a jam/worship session on my roof with 2 great people 

I did so much more...

I'm sharing this because I'm happy and rejuvenated and want you guys to do the same thing.

 Go out and do something FUN! 

I have been working a lot on some art work I have 2 canvas paintings in the works right now and a few sketch cards which are available for admiration or purchase if you'd like to own one for yourself ;) I also have been getting ideas for a bunch of new illustration projects that will be available for sale in my etsy shop when ready :) Seriously though guys have a great day and go outside for a bit, a park or a beach, have a bbq...do something that you enjoy, get refreshed :)

 Tinkerbell

 Luna Lovegood

 

 Sad Sally 

 Butter Beer (Harry Potter)

I am thinking of doing a blog giveaway very soon so stay tuned ;)

Love is A Losing Game

I haven't posted something up in a good couple of weeks. Today I bring you something a little different. If you read my nifty little blog banner it says, " th:creative (the blog of nyc creative(artist, designer, singer, songwriter)"...what the what Singer? Songwriter? Yes family I sing. Here is the latest video post. I hope you really do enjoy it, like any other piece of art I put out there I hope you take it as kindly and as openly as you have the works from my hands. 

Lots of Love,

This is my cover of Amy Winehouse: Love is A Losing Game 

When I found out Amy Winehouse had died I was at work. My co-worker brought it up in conversation and I had no idea. When I heard the news my heart sunk. I thought she was getting her act together and like Whitney, I was rooting for her. I wasn't the super psycho fan but I loved her music and her voice and I would over play her "Back to Black" album over and over again. I think it's sad the world will never get to hear what she could've done. That's always what will stick with me every time I play the same songs over and over again I will think. What if.

 R.I.P Amy your voice and talent will be missed.
