Oh thank SLR heaven!



The SLR Sloop at the Photojojo Store!


Finally, a decent camera bag! When I first got my lovely Nikon I was not so hip on carrying around the less-sightly black nylon case that seemed to be the only option. I searched high and low and settled with a plain leather videocamera case. Trknfld must've heard my cries because these bags could not be any more perfect. Made from the fabric of a sailship? Yes please.

Find 'em here!

Cellos + Thao Yumminess



I love the simplicity of this video. And cellos make this best noise I have ever heard so Thao's collaboration with them is even better. I keep saying that one of these days I will teach myself to play the cello. I think the time to start is now.

On Hands

" I am not what I am. I am what I do with my hands." - Lousie Bourgeois

My hand obsession has been exponentially growing over the course of the past six months. I have been working on a lot of embroidery lately and the unconscious routine of the hand amazes me. Delicate, skilled, and active. These are some collections I've gathered to wet the palette and feed the soul. Words also cannot describe my heart swells for Lousie Bourgeois and her work.
