hellooo, its ana

1.)What have you been doing post-graduation (art-wise or life-wise) and what are your plans for the next few months?

Well, i moved back to NJ - currently living at home. I'm close to NYC so my job search pretty much began there. About a month ago i got a job with a small design firm called Purplethum. It mostly deals with t shirt and textile design - so i've been doing lots of that! (and all on illustrator!) Besides that, I have gotten a couple freelance jobs - and working full time has convinced me that all I really want to do is freelance.
Marina, Ahu, and Jesse all live in NY - so ive been able to hang out with all of them as well.

2.)Where have you moved to (be specific: ex."hampden") ? Are you happy/excited/frustrated/ disappointed by your new location? Is there something about this new place you wanna advertise, or warn us about? (Ex. great Tex-Mex food, bad public transportation)

As I said - i live in NJ, commute to NY. New York is both amazing and terrible. Its amazing because everything you could possibly want is there - but its also a really intense and exhausting city. I'm still getting used to it. In one year Marina Ahu and I hope to move to Brooklyn together, once we have some money saved up.


3.)Is there something you have created since you graduated you would like to share? (it doesn't have to be an illustration)

Check out my blog and website! I have posted new painted sneakers and munnies.


4.)Which specific color have you been using/thinking about the most lately?

purple. although i've been thinking about it. not using it.


5.)Tell us something about you that has changed since we last met.

nothin really! although i am writing this post from nashville tennessee! my brother and i are in the middle of a road trip to houston!
