Magic Windows #24

Wednesday, August 17, 2011

Post photoshoot glitter & grime – from a beautiful adventure with the marvelous Darla Teagarden. The Tiger’s Wife, by Téa Obreht – I’m almost finished with it. It’s so good it makes me kind of sick. Ramona, my love – won’t you be mine? I want this, I want this, I want this – but [...]

Dithyrambalina: Musical Architecture in New Orleans

Wednesday, July 27, 2011

So! I am very excited to announce that Colin and I will be collaborating on a piece that will be part of amazing project called Dithyrambalina: The Brooklyn-based artist Swoon, who may know from her beautiful wheat-pasted cut-out street art (and the following flotillas: Miss Rockaway Armada, Swimming Cities of Switchback Sea, Swimming Cities of [...]

Magic Windows #21

Monday, January 24, 2011

The ring! Colin picked it out himself, (with input from Tamera!) I love it so much. It’s Victorian – imperial jade and rose gold, all hand-fabricated with delicately-chased swirling elements that resemble twining leaves or the tails of frolicking sea-creatures. I’ve chosen to wear it on my center finger, because it looks best there, symmetrically, [...]

Birthday Surprise!

Tuesday, January 11, 2011

I may not be able to muster the language to accurately express just how outrageously marvelous my birthday extravaganza really was, and I wish that the few photos I managed to remember to capture that night could really do it justice (let me tell you that they don’t even really come close!) Dana and Raven [...]

Sylphide Treasures – Gypsy Honeymoon II.

Monday, December 13, 2010

This flock of blue morpho butterflies seems to be exploring… Gypsy Honeymoon is one of the special spots on my list of pilgrimages whilst visiting San Francisco. I met the ravishing owner, Gabrielle Ekedal the first time my grandfather and I dropped in, and we instantly felt a deep kinship. She is a very magical [...]

Magic Windows #20

Monday, November 29, 2010

More Magic Windows photos from my New Orleans adventures: This house was decorated so wonderfully for Hallowe’en + Dia de los Muertos, I had to stop and gawp at it for a bit. I wonder who lives there? I like them already. A view from the back of Rusty Lazer’s trusty minivan, on the morning [...]

Vultures + Persimmons

Friday, November 26, 2010

Yesterday afternoon, we made the journey over hill and dale on the first of our familial holiday pilgrimages. I hear all the time complaints about the lack of seasons in Texas, and our pitiful lack of autumn – untrue, I say! The oaks are wearing russet cloaks, the sumacs scarlet, and the fields are molten [...]

Magic Windows #17

Tuesday, August 24, 2010

The other night, we were invited to dinner at our dear friend Annie’s house. Annie is an extremely sweet lady, talented artist, and very good cook: she made us squash and asparagus with pine nuts, polenta and venison sausage from a deer her friend hunted and processed. It was very delicious, and I would have [...]

The Museum of Ephemerata – Underground

Thursday, August 12, 2010

We recently took a trip deep into the bowels of the earth to visit our dear friends Scott and Jen Webel at their amazing new exhibit of cthonic mysteries. I remember back when I was still living in New Orleans, someone told me about this strange museum that had opened up in East Austin. While [...]

Magic Windows #16

Monday, August 2, 2010

Well, I’m sure it’s a bit cliché by now to be so thoroughly taken in by an iPhone doo-dad like the Hipstamatic, but I must admit that I like very much what it does to my everyday surroundings. My studio has been my haven even more than usual, and I’ve been slowly making it into [...]
