it's finally done...

...and it feels very very good. most are copyrighted by now, and the neurology pendant is the trademark. I have been working on these pieces since september 2008...

My next collection I am currently developing is inspired by the city-- but mainly the beautiful, industrial and modern things that we each day overlook.  I am sketching a lot, and taking a ton of pictures.

Oh, and right now I'm just calling the line MF.

blog title image

A lot of people have e-mailed asking me about the image that is at the top of my blog. No, it is not my image... but in fact a piece of history.

In 1895 Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, professor of physics the University of Wurburg in Germany, was doing experiments with electrical discharges in evacuated glass tubes. Late in 1895 Wilhelm Röntgen was alone at night doing his experiments, this time in the dark and noticed a glow was produced on the wall, which he knew was not caused by fluorescence or visible light. He named these new, unidentified rays 'X' or if you prefer; X-rays. After several months of playing with his discovery he noticed that objects place in the path of the rays cast shadows and created images on the wall. Soon after he used a photgraphic plate and had his wife, Frau Röntgen, place her hand in the path of the X-rays, creating the world's first X-ray picture. In 1901 Wilhelm Röntgen was awarded the very first Nobel Prize in Physics for this discovery. source

Very fitting.

Let me love now

my sister's in rome

A little over a week ago, my youngest sister left the brutally cold city of New York and did a little hop over pond we call the Atlantic to study in Rome.   A nursing major at Boston College, Chrissy loves being control and also knowing what is going to happen... she's the girl who told me her New Year's resolution is to "be more spontaneous." Clearly, we are opposites.

I'm very proud of her. She's taking a break from the nursing to study photography, Italian (obviously), among other things that have NOTHING TO DO WITH SCIENCE! Not that I'm against science... but I don't know... You need a good balance, I guess.

The thing is, in the Farrell family, being raised by Farrells means you are definitely less prone to be spontaneous... The only way to break through that little period is to break from the familiar and familial ties.

At her age I did not go abroad for a whole semester. Now, I yearn to live somewhere else if just for a month. My living alone definitely loosened me up a bit.

Anyways, my life is complete. She has started a blog called I Speak Fluent Cappuccino... and is going to start writing about her "spontaneous adventures" around Europe. I can live vicariously through her entries during my hard working days at my two jobs now. Glory glory hallelujah.
