"Everything is biographical, Lucian Freud says. What we make, why it is made, how we draw a dog, who it is we are drawn to, why we cannot forget. Everything is collage, even genetics. There is the hidden presence of others in us, even those we have known briefly. We contain them for the rest of our lives, at every border we cross."

I'm still trying to figure out what moves me about these aerial photos of Botswana. I'll be coming back to this one soon. Thanks Zack Scckler!

Reflections

Cambridge, MA

To the mountains!

Snowy Pines

Timmy and Mr. Bill

Pheasants

Before winter completely escapes us on the east coast (and I'm not trying to hold on to it by any means), here are some of my favorite moments of winter 2013/2014. All of these photos, aside from Cambridge, were taken in either Wisconsin or outside of Seattle. Check out more on instagram! 

Green Thoughts

Images found here!

Sick in bed today. Luckily my fever dreams are leaving me with visceral sensations of the sun's warmth and lush green summer days. 

Childhood Photos

 Wengenn in wonderland

My daughter Kanna

My favorite pictures of my siblings and I are the ones of us being silly or crying, mostly because they seem to be honest and natural, or posed in the ways we wanted to pose. I wish we captured the imagination of our childhood in photo memories like these two artists who engage creatively with their children. One draws inspiration from her sleepy baby, and the other by letting his kid get weird on a road. 

Fantasy Dress

Just dreaming out loud. Found these Lauren de Zagazan dresses at Missmoss a while ago. 

Leather Lust

Back to my preoccupation with leather bags. I'm looking for the perfect easy design to create a leather bag with my brother sewing machine...again. (Because the first bags were practice pancakes...)
