I feel like I was just complaining about how long the winter was and now spring is easing into summer. That’s all the excuse I need to share this post from the past — Embodying Nature Through Collage — about a collaboration with artist Zoe Langosy who is one of the few people in the world encouraged to cut up my photos because she incorporates the pieces into such beauty, like this Spring/Summer Geisha. Have a good weekend, folks, and here’s to having a good summer. 😉

ephemera

I recently sent my young nephew a paper object (a train). I warned his parents that it was coming through the mail, and that I did not expect it to last more than one gleeful scream and then be forever changed as strong young hands enjoyed an ephemeral object. And that was okay. I wanted to give him a gift that could be enjoyed in the moment and not worried about preserving.

These ephemeral works I created as a gift to myself … and probably to my neighbors below. I could not sleep and decided I should stop pacing the night away. And so I sat and found some paper and pens … and some leftover lip gloss and decided to see what might end up on the page.
