So, for 2014 I decided to give myself my own "one little word." For this year I chose brave. I chose brave for various reasons, but the big reason for my choosing it was because it was the last of my "goals list" I made myself towards the end of December. I wrote "be brave," because lately I've been a complete worry-wort and it's sort o[...]
Just this weeks list of favorited interesting reads. The image above was taken last night when I was in a very creative mode and doing a super cool project, which I hope to share with you all soon. For now, here are my favorite week's reads. Sketchbook Pages, Postcard Daydreams - I love taking peaks into other people's sketchbooks. Eac[...]
Fountain (1917), Marcel Duchamp I'm taking this art class from CalArts on Coursera called "Live!: A History of Art for Artists, Animators and Gamers" and the first assignment is to "sketch" what you think is art and what people think is art. This is always such a topic for debate because everyone has different conflicting opinions on[...]
perfect: self portrait, 2014 I took this photo today because I needed a new photo for my new "about me" page. I used this photo as a placeholder, because I always use it as an icon for various sites and have always loved the look. I was really close to just leaving it as the picture for the page, but I thought against it. It's my abou[...]
If there's one thing I've been trying to do more of this year is read. I didn't do much reading last year, which is so unlike me. I can honestly say that all I did was watch TV, because that's what I did everyday...watch TV. Too much TV. It got to the point where I knew by heart the TV schedule to my local ABC7 station. Bad, I say, really[...]
Honestly, I haven't been listening to much music like I normally do. I have no idea of what's new or old, on the radio or not, a hit or a flop. No clue. If I'm in the mood for some tunes, I play a couple of my old U2, The Beatles, or Bon Jovi records and dance around my living room like I'm in an 80s teen movie sequence. Really, and[...]
I got this from Amanda Rose's blog. It's a great blog, by the way. I discovered it last night when I was Googling the phrase "One Little Word." This is the first time I'm doing a post like this, but I thought it would be a fun first. These are the rules:1. Post these rules.2. Post a photo of yourself.3. Answer the questions set fo[...]
(image: LolaNova) So, lately I've been consumed with my summer backpacking trip to Turkey and Greece that I'm planning for this upcoming September. Yeah, I know September isn't really summer, but I initially was planning to go in June until I saw that flight prices were much cheaper for September. So I caved. Plus, the weather in[...]
So, it's officially been a year today that I created this blog. My intention was to blog a little every week on the topic of love and what love is. Along the way, the theme sort of changed. I got really into art journaling and different types of journal documentation and scrapbooking that I wanted to share those things too, so I would pos[...]
Just a random cover of Applause by Lady Gaga. I was just playing around, actually recording a different song, and well...here you are! I hope you enjoy.[...]
(images: hornycannibalducks @ tumblr) “I don't know where people got the idea that characters in books are supposed to be likable. Books are not in the business of creating merely likable characters with whom you can have some simple identification. Books are in the business of creating great stories that make your brain go all like[...]
(image: Amanda Charchian) “Love—Eros—makes his home in men’s hearts, but not in every heart, for where there is hardness he departs. His greatest glory is that he cannot do wrong nor allow it; force never comes near him. For all men serve him of their own free will. And he whom Love touches not walks in darkness.”- Plato[...]
