I plan to live in China sometime at the end of 2010, and my flatmate is just started giving me serious lessons. It’s very challenging, but very exciting, and i’m doing well so far!

Creative Avalanche of Picture-taking!

I’ve been taking so many photos i can barely keep up with myself :). This goal is more of a process than a goal, i suppose – i always want to take more, more more photos – take photos till i die.
I have a new show coming up in Chicago at the end of August at the 1901 gallery, wee!
And a new place i’ve been showing my work online; highly recommend this to any serious photographers/artists – it’s a fantastic community.
