Vitruvian Girl

Unlike the Vitruvian Man, the Vitruvian Girl is not of perfect proportion. She is not the image that represents the blend of art and science during the Renaissance, or the universe as a whole, nor is she the measure of all things “girly”. She is however a believer..a believer like Leonardo that the human eye is the perfect instrument in which to learn the laws of nature, and the artist, the perfect person to illustrate them.

The Vitruvian girl is a modern one.
She thinks, creates, observes, teaches, cares and shares. And even with her flaws and her fears, she reaches past the circle, out of bounds, free to fall, until she flies…
Follow her and see what wonders she may bring...

I say that between my teeth…Miami is lovely for about a day, but is definitely one of the most awful places to live.  So in order to keep my sanity, on those days I feel like traveling, I concoct a day trip. It usually includes my boyfriend plus one or two other close friends who feel like hanging.  We’ll drive to any one of the urban areas of Miami like Wynwood, Miami Beach, Coconut Grove, South Miami, or Brickell and experience it like a tourist.  I usually like to do something like this once a week, so I always feel like I’m traveling. I’ll eat somewhere I’ve never been, visit a few shops, take lots of photos, check out a new museum exhibit, whatever the area dictates really.  All I know is that without these dreamy days, I would have probably hung myself from a palm tree long ago.
