Somehow, I'm a month shy of finishing my first year at the New York Academy of Art.  I'm not sure where the time has gone, but it has been a great experience so far - I'm being stretched in ways that I wasn't anticipating.  There is still plenty of room to grow, and I am certainly looking forward to next year.
Many thanks to everyone who stopped by Anna's and my Studio at the Tribeca Ball.  It was a pleasure to meet you!
