Girl Portrait Power





Mini fun photo shoot with my great friend Aurora.

This represents the youthful
young deep inspiring teenage
girls. So much to deal with
so much to gossip about
so much to learn, listen, love,
about everything that comes
into there lives. As a teenage
girl lays around in her room
listening to her favorite music
she dreams of what she wants
to become. Sometimes you just
need to close your eyes and dream
your upcoming realities.

Oh to be young again and dream
of what you wanted to become.

with all my love & respect
Lex.

Portrait by Aurora

Fort Collins, CO !

You're becoming
a great photographer

Colorado Bound

As I am free of tests and projects forced by college teachers and mentors I have began to realize that I have to make up my own tests and projects for myself. A hard thing to kick into your own realization after college yet it's right there in front of you and if you don't pursue your own projects you'll be left last sort a speak in the art world. Coming from some artists that I know told me to draw or take a picture at least once a day. Cause if you don't you'll become lazy and unmotivated to do what you love. Also, when you dream while sleeping at night or even taking a nap, right when you wake up write down your dream and that may become a picture you can create through a drawing or photography.

After driving 1200 miles across the country I finally know where I may belong for while. With great friends, family, scenery, and with many creative people feels great. I hope all you artists feel something like I have wherever you end up and keep up your tests and projects.

*photos soon to come *

cheers to you my new town and home,
your new neighborhood artist/photographer,

May 15th Graduation



After almost 25 years I have finished school. That doesn't mean I have finished learning at any means. I owe these years to my parents that have been the biggest supporters I could ever have ask for. They drove me one way and that was just to succeed in whatever I wanted to for a career. I went to 3 different colleges within 6 years and finally graduated at the University of Minnesota Duluth. Where I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Arts with an emphasis in Digital Art and Photography Major. In short I got a BFA in studio Arts with a DAP Major. Now my girlfriend and I have decided to move to Colorado where I'll begin an internship with a digital art and photography studio while working part or full time at a custom framing shop ( where I have 2 yrs of experience in ).

I should also congratulate my fellow 1100 or so classmates in there success as well ! cheers to you ! and good luck in the future.

Band : The Solen Brothers




2/6/2010
At the Rex Bar in Duluth, MN.
My first band "photo shoot"
It was a fun and great atmosphere
The band played a lot of new and old Rock
songs as well as some of there own songs.
These pictures aren't justice to the noise they
were really making while the crowd was dancing away.

Cheers to my buddy Keir ( the drummer ) and his new band!

Last semester at college !

The end is near.
The tunnel is getting clearer.
Opportunities are becoming a reality.
Concepts, Context, Content, are all coming together.
Create art for art sake and involve everyone you can.
I am art. Art is me. Therefore I am an artist in my own artistic world.
Believe. learn. dream. conquer. everything you step into.
Artists never quit.
The end is the new beginning.
Live art. Love art.
