This is a beautiful painting artist Janice Rago from Valdosta, GA painted of me. She was inspired by the original photo that I had taken back a few months ago.
The painting stands about 3 to 4 feet tall and is featured for a month at a gallery downtown in Valdosta, Georgia at Hildegard’s, if you are in or near the area go check it out!
Florida to Valdosta to Dublin – - it’s been a busy few days but I’ve been loving and enjoying every second of it! I shot for Inked Magazine the other day with Mojokiss, it was amazing to say the least – can’t wait til the issue comes out. Think lots of sand, sun, heels, chunky accessories & FILM. Yes, he shot me with film, I love to change from digital to film, it’s such a nice change and always feels more ‘real’ and ‘pure’ for lack of better terms.
I got to see the beautiful Taylor Swift and be all tipsy at her show in Orlando..I had amazing seats in the first few rows, what a blast to see such a delicate yet fearless soul rock out the sold out arena that night! So proud of her!
One of my favorite parts of her entire show was of course the multicolored tissue paper hearts, thousands and millions and trillions, filling the entire place up at the end. I felt like I was living a fairytale.
I received news that “Bubba’s World” airs March 28th on Fuel TV. I will post later the date that my episode airs and possibly a YouTube link as well for all the internationals. Here’s a few behind the scenes shot on their website and that the director sent over to me:

Life is so beautiful – go take a walk and enjoy it!

“Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beautiful, admire it. Life is a dream, chase it. Life is a challenge, conquer it. Life is a duty, complete it. Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, keep it. Life is sorrow, overcome it. Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, embark on it. Life is precious, protect it. Life is a lesson, learn from it. Life is a privilege, fight for it.”
Life’s been a rollercoaster for me recently, there’s no other excuse for my absence other than that. I’m in the process of fully revamping my website with a clean, fresh, new look for the new decade (also with a completely new URL that you’ll have to be bookmarking soon!) Tons of updates will be coming soon soon soon as well as new photos and I promise to devote atleast 10 mins to blog everyday! Life > Social Networking/Blogging but I still do enjoy sharing my absurdities with you!
There are so many exciting things in the works for me right now but I can’t release any news until the projects are released. I couldn’t feel any more blessed than I do at this current moment, let’s just say that.
I’m still booking work through my site with the BOOKING tab at the top – easy form to fill out & it goes directly to me to read and schedule accordingly! I’m looking forward to working hard this year, my year has started off with some weird/unpleasant surprises so things are a little slow right now as far as “modeling” goes, but I do guarantee I will be back in full force and in the swing of things before you know it!
Please continue to email me through the CONTACT tab up top, I love reading your emails and try to respond to as many as I can when I get downtime.
In other news, the reality show I filmed for “Bubba’s World” should be airing this April on Fox & Spike TV so be on the lookout, it’s going to be a riot!

I’ll be seeing you all soon, hope everything is great with each and every one of you.
