Hello, my name is Ashley. You can call me Ash if you're feeling lazy. I do like the short version the best, but I will probably answer to just about any name that starts with an A. The first picture is of a snapshot I took of the Pueblo south side Solar Roast. Pueblo is an interesting city with an abundance of art and culture, and Solar Roast is one of the many places that supports the arts (not to mention great coffee). The Artist, Mathew Taylor, has a few wonderful murals around the city. I suggest going on an expedition if you haven't already. There are some great murals all over including the levee works.

The second picture is of my best friend, Diesel, who is acting as my stand in. I am a fine arts major looking to improve myself as an artist. I have been exploring the digital medium and trying to gain some decent tech skills. Most of my life has been spent working in a creative industry from professional tattoo artist to photographer and even cake decorator. I did enjoy tattooing but found it very confining. Music is what guides me and I spend most of my time creating with music as a backdrop. Hiking is another hobby that I love very much, but since adopting Diesel I don't do it as often. He's not real friendly with other dogs and certain people. I look forward to getting to know all of you this semester.
