Waiting to hear back from the HATCH artist residency. Delayed shipping artwork to Peoria. My birthday has passed but there's still more celebrating to do. Just re-read a proposal I emailed this morning and found a grammatical typo. Resisting these potato chips and french fries lurking around every corner while I commute to the next school. #chicagocommute #teachingartist #inktober #commuter #chicagoartist
