life well lived

hair in the shot

as most of you know,

my hair is everywhere,

everywhere!

all the time,

in people's faces,

on my clothes,

in my own face,

and in this case...

in front of the lens--

in the shot

However, in this case:

I like it the most.

I like that you get an impression of how windy it was in the car driving up the coast.

Asia (yes, my favorite continent... but also, the name of the model)

How I photographed all my drawings:

just taped it up on the outside of the painting studio,

the best idea ever, because:

1. natural light, 2. efficient, 3. fun

I like the repetition of the lines, a lot

on the building, on the edge of the paper, on the drawing

repetition, geometry = my cup of coffee

and here it is!

medium: charcoal pencil

(p.s. I really like charcoal pencil)

old train rides up the coast

I found this old photo tonight, from a year ago, of my cousin Aleksander (who lives in Norway!)--

it was taken on the train ride up the coast, from San Diego to LA, last spring break.

Things this makes me miss:

1. Aleksander

2. train rides

3. the ocean (it's been a long time)

4. Spring Break (here in a week!!)
