I Paint My Own Reality: sometimes force is necessary.
http://hannahfrancis.blogspot.com/2010/01/sometimes-force-is-necessary.html
Friday, January 29, 2010. Sometimes force is necessary. A drawing class and a painting class this semester are the perfect means for some forced creativity. A semester away from studio classes has left my critical-eye partially shut, and I am working to re-open it. A return to painting feels necessary and vital. Hopefully the good-vibrations that come when holding the paintbrush will translate into a more secure state of well-being. Some work in progress:. January 30, 2010 at 10:36 AM. Small works in wool.

The view from the front of the temple is amazing. Do you see the ocean out there? These flowers on the temple grounds were beautiful and GIGANTIC! Aotearoa (the Maori people of New Zealand). Dum-Dum, give me gum-gum! Just like Disneyland or Lagoon, they insist on taking your picture when you enter the park and w...

A couple of Saturdays ago, Cory and I decided to clean out the laundry room. It was MUCH NEEDED after accumulating way too much junk in there! First we just started by cleaning off the countertop and emptying the cupboards so that we could move them to the garage. After that was all done, I thought "Why not paint in here, now that it is all cleared out?

Team Cheniae!: May 2010
http://teamcheniae.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 26, 2010. So, on May 12th I decided to take on a challenge that a couple of people in my family have recently decided to do. Basically the challenge is to "create" something every day for 1 year. For example, my mother is making a card every day for 1 year, and so far they are AMAZING. My aunt Susan has created a wonderful daily dose of Happy Thoughts. Here are a few pictures of my progress so far. This is a little painting for Amelia's baby! Wednesday, May 19, 2010. I don't actually know ...

Okay, that isn't the only reason, but they do keep me in stiches. Here are my favorite funny moments from each of my kids recently. And then mumbles very quickly, (still mostly asleep) "twinkle, twinkle little star" and then wakes up. I am laughing just typing this, it was sooo funny! We still tease him about that one. He may never live it down. I am a...

This is a picture of the USS Arizona memorial (the white building) from the shore. While we were waiting for our turn to go to the USS Arizona, we took a tour of the USS Bowfin Submarine. It was pretty neat to see all the old instruments and such. Can you imagine living and sleeping like this for months at a time?

I Paint My Own Reality: June 2009
http://hannahfrancis.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 13, 2009. I may have barely. Come out alive, but the school year is finally over. Now on to the ever-stimulating summer pastime. the Family Swim School. At least I always have a place to come back to,. Is what I keep telling myself, but judging by the success of my collegiate career, I may not be leaving anytime soon. As our dear pal Lucy would point out: "See this face? This is a failure face. It has failure written all over it". And we actually did have some fun. I Paint My Own Reality.

I Paint My Own Reality: August 2008
http://hannahfrancis.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 28, 2008. The Long and Winding Road, Or What Happens on Cicero. Lesson #1: guard rails are put on the highway for a reason. And now my passenger door will not open, so if you want a ride, then you are welcome to climb over the stick shift and parking break. Lesson #2 Never show your driver's liscence if a hotel clerk asks to see ID- choose a school ID or something without your birthdate on it, because apparently being under 21 is not kosher in the world of hotel check-ins. O many possibi...
