Hello again!

I feel so sheepish that I've let this site go unattended for so long. It's almost the New Year again (rats, I could have left it alone). Life has been good, but pretty busy and I guess this site took a hit. I'm happy to say that the photo section is thriving, however. That's something.

This photo was taken back in February at the Tucson Rodeo Parade. I'm not the cowgirl type at all but I thought this one was funny. I need to brush up on my Photoshop skillz again, since I've had about 10 months without practice of the advanced techniques. I'm still enjoying photography though!

Stay tuned for more of a substancial update...no promises as to when!

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone is off to a good start! Not too much has changed from last semester for me. I am still working in the same position, but we are moving to one of Tucson's only downtown skyrise office buildings so I will have an office with a nice view! Pictures will be coming once we get settled in.

I am taking the "Advanced Photoshop" class this semester so know not to trust any pictures you see from me again, like this one for example. At the conclusion of the class and when I have more time, perhaps I will give this website a make-over with my new skillz.

I am still playing flute and piano for fun but I recently had the opportunity to play piano in a recording studio for the production of a CD that the Christmas choir put together. I am also taking classes in ballroom dance. We've learned the fox trot, rumba, waltz, swing, tango, and salsa! My dance partner and I are getting quite good! :)

That's all for now! Have a good one! :)

Photoshop Rocks!

New Art Display Section!
It used to be that photos were used as evidence of past events. Not anymore! Thanks to photo editing software like Photoshop life will never be the same and photos can lie! (For example, although it is hard to tell on a website, this picture of me was altered using a Photoshop filter to make the image more like a cross-hatched stencil painting.)

If you are at all interested in what I've been doing in these classes or just want to look at my art work for the heck of it, please click here for the first semester and here for the second semester, and you will be directed to the display sites that I created for my final projects.

These courses are a part of my "continuing education" via work. I'm almost done!
