Mihály Munkácsy "The Condemned"

This has to be one of my favorite paintings, when I first saw it at the Frye it stood out to me more than any other picture. I find it beautiful and interesting. It makes me curious to know this man's story, I want to know why he's there. I want to know him. Is he guilty? What's in the notebook on the floor? It brings on emotions, and I believe that is important when looking at art.

Camping trip

I went on another camping trip with Laura and Amy. We had a lot of fun. We played pretend and ran away from bad guys in the woods. I felt like I was ten again. It was simply amazing! Here are some pics. Traveling with Laura and Amy we say a rock outcrop and simply had to stop, it turned out to be Phyllite, has some of the same properties as slate.

Geology Trip

Laura, Amy and I went to Rosario Head at Deception Pass for a geology class project, here are some pics from the trip. It was very informative and interesting. I learned a lot more than I could contain. We found churt and slate on our little expedition!

Very, very late China pics

China this last summer was simply amazing. Sorry it's taken me so long to put pictures up.
