Marionette Doll

Im not sure where this came from exactly- It was one of those moments when I was suddenly hit with an idea- I wanted to make a person into a Marionette doll... I wasn't sure how I would execute it but I thought I would play around. My good friend Sarah was extremely patient with me as I rigged up the ropes and tried to get the scene to look like what I was imagining. Unfortunately when I finally finished setting up, the light I was using started to burn out leaving me with a short window of time to shoot- about 5 minutes, ha! Here is what I came up with...expect to see more marionette people soon!



A Road Trip

Have you ever heard of Marfa Texas? No? No! Im not surprised- neither had I before I took this short little 16 hour road trip to check it out with a now friend (we didn't know eachother before) in the media design department at Art Center. Why would I drive over 25 hours in the course of 3 days just to go to Marfa Texas you may ask- Well there is a simple answer... Prada Marfa. Check it out for yourself- http://www.texasescapes.com/TexasArt/Prada-Marfa.htm - and of course just for the amazing story I would have to tell people. It ended up being an amazing trip- Worth every minute of sitting in the car. Here are just a FEW pictures from the trip.
