Travel Diary: New Orleans!
New Orleans will forever be one of my favorite cities to visit. It's impossible not to feel inspired when spending time in a city with so much history and so rich in arts and culture. Here are a few photos from my most recent trip there this Spring.
My favorite gallery to visit in New Orleans is the Red Truck Gallery in the French Quarter. I first fell in love with their aesthetic when I saw their booth at Scope Miami a few years ago. I went kind of photo crazy!
Until next time, New Orleans! <3

Lisa Congdon's commencement address at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design was a powerful reminder for creatives, both old and new. "Show up every day. Show enthusiasm. Bring energy to your work and your working relationships. Remain humble. Grow the strength to persevere through every hardship, rejection or criticism. Conduct business with professionalism and integrity. Use your superpowers for good. And last of all, be patient with yourself."
