I'm pretty excited to be chosen to be in this gallery and really psyched about who the jurors were. Hopefully I get to meet them. San Francisco is where my sister lives so I'll be going to visit her...I can't wait! Already making a mental checklist of the galleries I want to scope out and of course visit the SFMOMA. I lived here very very briefly once upon a tim...
