Print Communication is alive! (Regardless of all the depressing news to the contrary that we’ve been getting over the past few years as students with a print concentration.) For my senior creative project I’ve been altering photographs that I’ve taken over the past few years and turning them into postcards. I’ll be sending them out using the real live postal service…

Welcome to Loco, issue #2: Spring
The word “free” is gold to a college student, so when I found out that I could attend a benefit hosted by the PA ballet I jumped at the chance (let’s face it I’ll do pretty much anything if its free).
