..i was getting dress in the morning for registration classes at Columbia College Chicago my last year. i heard my sister talking to my other sister on the phone about turning on the tv and my brother calling to get all your money outta the bank. (crazy ass!) On the television was both smoking towers and minute later one fell after the other. It was surreal and shocking.

this was a painting i made that fall in one of my drawing painting classes.
