Creating the Path That has Already Chosen Me















My girlfriend and I went antiquing today. I found some 'haute' naks from the past. Some representing sacred glamor of the '70s, which came from sewing books published with psychedelic covers made to only catch the eye of a starving beginner. It was fate, especially when I passed the "Singer: The MR. Sewing Machine" on the way to get a chilled Budweiser Clamato. Maybe someday I'll break out my machine- #1 gift circa Christmas 2009- out of the box and sew my first piece. I don't know if I'm made to make my own clothes or bask in the comfort others'. Either way, I'm on the path of rendering my career in fashion, however that leads me & surviving to keep an open eye.

Graffiti by Banksy

January 8

"It's never too late to start over. It is never past the point of no return for our artist to recover. We can heap years, decades, a lifetime of insult upon our artist and it is so resilient, so powerful, and so stubborn that it will come back to life when we give it the smallest opportunity. We can help ourselves by coaxing our artist out with the promise of some protected time to be listened to, talked with, and interacted with. If we actively love our artist, our artist will love us in return. Lovers tell secrets and share dreams. Lovers meet no matter how adverse the circumstances, sneaking off for a rendezvous. As we woo our artist with our focused attention and private time, it will reward us with art."


-Julia Cameron, The Artist's Way Every Day, A Year of Creative Living (pg 14)

A Pure Kind of Beauty





My stunning mother.

she's still as timeless to this day
