so these paintings are beginning to get where they want to go. slowly, but surely. good things are happening, but, i repeat, slowly. they are becoming less about me, which is good. they were starting to feel really self involved. and no good. but, now, they are starting to be, more, just... how do i say... i don't know. but, either way, they still aren't finished. they are becoming milagros, kind of. these little pieces of meaning... well, yall will see. the pictures i have are a couple days of work old, but i will post more newer ones in a couple of days. also, that hand piece goes with them. and i finally got them out of my studio and up on a wall together, and that really was when they came together. they finally recognized eachother or something. but anyway. they look better now, and will continue that way. yall gotta trust me.
also, here. this is that one of me, which is also a little further along than it was in this picture. there is my belly and this tiny little guy that just kinda happened.
also,
i have been volunteering at the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna installing a Sol Lewitt wall ink wash... jawn. it was really a great experiance. i should go back and help more with the other piece but i have so much school stuff to finish that i don't really have the time. but here.
um... and i have been meaning to post xiomara's happy happy birthday pictures since... well... her birthday (feb. 13)
oh! and also! there is this old, strange looking thing that i have passed a couple times now. it sits in the middle of villa borghese, and one day with meredith we looked inside, and it is a little memorial thingie in there.
this is me and my baby, who i don't want to leave on may 8th when i come home.
although, i do want to come home. for awhile anyway.
love all around

i love these paintings so much. your belly is amazzinngg i really like the unfinished state. it might be hard for you to appreciate right now - the slowness of the process - but just remember how much you love process! all the meaning in the process, the symbols, the beauty ! because for all of us watching your process via internet, it's really a beautiful thing.
lisa, of course you'll getta cool ass tomb thing! no worries, and i'll make sure to put lots of kitchky little religous things in it, like jesus nightlights and such... as well as homies... you know.. it'll be good....
