exploring new possibilities.

one day that will be me. traveling off with my suitcase.

for approximately the last 2 hours i have been looking over photography colleges/institutes.

(side note: the word institute kind of scares me. that's what they call the places where crazy people live. which might be convenient, seeing as artists are know to be a bit 'off their rockers'.)

anyway, i have come up with some, or one, very probable prospect. i discovered maryland institute college of art. so this one is actually an institute and college all in one! it is 14 hours and 15 minutes (893mi) from my home, which is 50 minutes closer than kansas city. it has a pretty campus. very artsy, of course. here is some sample artwork from current students:















laura oster (photography)





















carrie deidrich (interdisciplinary sculpture)

the one at the top is ben shipley (photography)

i've decided that if i like the student's artwork at a school, mabey that's the school for me. so this will be put into consideration in my thoughts.

will it ever come to pass? God only knows.
