FILM & CRAFT

I scored the most incredible collection of vintage books, Ex Libres, at Goodwill the other day. I've been in the process of gutting them out or sewing photos into the pages, for a photo book I am preparing for an art show idea at Seven Sisters Cafe. I'm going to scan the book covers soon. So check back - if that's your thing.

ILLUSTRATION

This is Danna Ray. She is a bad ass painter and I am saving up my money to clean out her etsy. Her paintings make me nostalgic for memories that have yet to occur and I want to photograph each moment she's created, exactly like this.

FILM & CRAFT

Last week, in the height of my sickness, I got a little crafty and made these succulent habitats. I was really inspired by this etsy artist I saw, awhile back, who creates incredible moss orbs that can be hung from just about anything. So I mozied on down to JoAnn's, bought a bag of top soil and a few tiny succulents, and squeezed them inside a set of recycled glass bottles. It was really easy to do, incredibly inexpensive, and totally perfect to 'green up' a small space.

I am so thankful it's Friday. Finally, I'm starting to shake off this week long cold/flu thing, so I can only anticipate the next few days to be relaxing and fun and full of phototaking. As a matter of fact, I've been working on this idea for an outdoor shoot for a few weeks now, but the weather in Florida has yet to throw me a bone. Every free chance I get the day is fully rained out. Either way, I'm going to execute this thing soon - with a tent and a camera. So be warned.

P.S. The above photos are completely non-serious and a result of sheer boredom and being quarantined to my apartment with the flu for over a week. So enjoy.
