Recognition

Hard work doesn't go unrecognized. I've been presented with the URI 2011 Academic Excellence Award for the Department of Art.

RULE #128

When you looking at Door #1,2, and 3 it is only a matter of time before Door #4 slams you in the back of the head

This photo pretty accurately describes how I feel right now. On a whim (and for a class assignment) I applied for a Research/Artistic grant to fund my senior capstone drawing project, "On Any Given Day" through my University.

I found out today that not only was my proposal accepted, but I also received the full funding requested for the project.

I literally feel on top of the world currently.

Photos of the project will start being posted shortly on my personal site so keep an eye out for that!

The Birth of Karinmellin.com

So after much debate, multiple layouts, ideas, and countless hours of brainstorming, I welcome karinmellin.com into the world. The site is well on its way and should be close to completion within the next month. Please take a moment to stop and visit.  Any feedback, comments, concerns, applause is welcome to be posted on the blog. Thank you and stay tuned!
