Chrissy: Paris Amora

Congrats to cousin Cynthia and her husband, Skyler.

They had the most perfect little baby girl yesterday!

Her name is Paris Amora Lewis.  

I love the name! It just sounds sooo romantic!

She and mommy are healthy and well!

So amazing

and Beautiful! 

Chrissy: Memorial Day

Just some fun pics from Memorial Day

We traveled around to 5 different cemeteries in Southern Utah

Found out that by taking a picture of your reflection in the car

window can be a cool affect

Chrissy: Food to die for

This is Swatti

She is a student at BYU from Nepal

She's living with us for a while and I love her to death!

Every saturday evening she makes us some delish

Nepalese food. We have to eat it with our hand!

So fun!

Here we have Chicken Korma, rice and a vegetable mix of potatoes and eggplant.

We get to eat this after my graduation on Thursday

HAPPY DAY!

Chrissy: Drama drama

One of the best things about having a sister close to your age

is that you can go all crazy with each other 

and neither one cares.

Lately me and Cora have been into the whole

Soap opera, super dramatic scenes.

We always turn a simple sentence into a huge deal.

Like today:

Chris: We should buy this song. Its really good.

Cora: *gives me a weird look*

Chris: Coralee, you need to trust me.

Cora: How can I trust you anymore?

Chris: Ok look, I know we've had a rough week, but please, I just need you to trust me.

Cora: *looks at me, shakes her head and walks towards the door*

Chris: *in a raised voice* You used to trust me!

Cora: But I can't now. And I never will again. *slams the door*

Haha, very fun.

Chrissy: Me and Taylor

Basically me and Taylor Lautner are getting married.

(just kidding, this was done with photoshop and it took about 2 hours)

Chrissy: PS sketch of sickness

Working on my illustration style

this was done in Photoshop

it was the worst.

 I need to get used to it

This is like a sketch vomit, or something.

Hopefully I'll get better!

Chrissy: Hair color

So here's the deal. 

I want to die my hair.

Here's my natural hair color.

I want to go lighter

Or darker.

Or redder. Haha

I need help! Tell me which one you like best!

Chrissy: The peachy keen mad blogging machine!

This is Cheri. 

She is so super cute, I think, and always has way fun posts! 

She found my blog last year and I was happy to visit hers soon thereafter.

She had an amazing senior shoot, I think.

Check out the rest here!

Chrissy: Yea for winning stuff!

So I like to win stuff. Its great! These last few weeks our school had its annual Art Show and Photo Show. The below picture won and honorable mention in the mixed media section (the depressed boy in red happens to be friend Jon). And the one above won first place in the oil section.

And below is the picture of Cora that won first place in the Studio Section. And 3rd place over all!! Happiness! Sorry, its such a bad picture of the picture. Maybe I'll upload the real file soon.

Chrissy: My full on AP art portfolio, that I should be uploading to my artist blog...

Here you go! Basically my whole life's work. Took me all year to work on these pieces. 

Hope you enjoy!

Chrissy: Traginess of my life...

So Prom was a little while ago. 

I didn't get asked :(

Guess I'm just not that appealing. 

But Cor went, and she looked stunning in her dress bought in Cali!

At the end of the date her date gave her a crown and slipper, saying that even tho it was past midnight, she was still a princess to him.

She's my fav!

Chrissy: Senior Pics

Oh what a fun thing! Senior pics with Aunt Connie!

Hope you like some of my favs!

Chrissy: Matting

Today I cut mats for my quality pieces for my AP art portfolio. 

Oh my goodness! What a struggle.

I had to use one of these complicated babies. 

Messed up three times!

Let me tell you about how long it takes to make 5 mats:

5 hours. 

Plus you have to make the foam core to put on the back.

Also had to use this little beaut.

Ended up cutting my pinky.

There were no band-aids in the art room (go figure)

So I got creative and used a tissue and wrap it up in masking tape :D

Thus creating a little cast for my poor finger.

I will so be glad when this is over.
