University of Washington, School for Giants

University of Washington is a gorgeous & also massive school! It also has some of the most beautiful trees I've ever seen!

Chinatown & Downtown

Yes, I am still not done sharing photos from Seattle. Yes, I am very slow sometimes. Anyway, Seattle is very small & traffic is not an issue which meant that most of our time was spent planning things, realizing those things didn't take a whole lot of time & then wandering around, spontaneously exploring the town. City? I don't know! Anyway, above is obviously the gates to Chinatown.

One of the coolest things in Seattle is of course, the public library! Not just because of my fondness for libraries, let me tell you! Actually some random guy at Library Bar here in Los Angeles (no, I'm not kidding, yes, I'll stop with the libraries) told me about the magical upper floor not long before we flew up & I think it tipped my roommate/travel partner in favor of my, "Oh my gosh, we should go see the library!" plea. Whoops, I guess I didn't stop with the libraries. I will also share with you that I nearly whacked my head on one of the support beams in the library which would have been loud, embarrassing, & hilarious.

Passing time in Union Station

I went to the opening event for "The Painting Factory: Abstraction After Warhol" at MOCA Grand. The show was really impressive which is great! I wasn't sure what to expect since I'm not actually a huge fan of Warhol, but some of the pieces in this show are so fantastic!

While I was there, I took some snapshots of the Rothko paintings in the permanent collection since I had failed to do so in all of my previous visits

Best recent thing of all, my review panel passed my portfolio! This is my happiest, mascara smeary, tears of joy forever and ever face!
