Charlotte took me to the park today... I made us leaf crowns and we saw an otter.
perfect perfect perfect

in a few weeks I'm in california, where things like this occur every once in a while..

The sun has been shining and i forgot how amazing colours are....

i promise to never...what?

Who am I kidding?



Not me...

today, take 2!
also, today:

I strap on some rollerskates, a hopefully, sequined 70's bootylicious skanksuit and Rollergirl LIVES!
(for a movie)

bad night.
better morning.

my dna

what moves me?




the town I grew up in...



I make wishes on pink caddies...

I had a dreamy childhood... cats, mustangs, beaches, wild blackberries and silk dresses...

I wish i didnt wear jeans so often...


I started this last night.. i ruined it later on as well.. OOPS.
lesson learned...

come back as the light

And hey there, Mr. morning sun, what kind of creature are you?
I can't stare, but I know you're there
Goddamn, how I wish I knew






morning rituals........


And hey there, Mrs. lovely moon, you're lonely and you're blue
It's kind of strange, the way you change
But then again, we all do too




Sunday.....
floating to the Fitzpatrick pub for coaster forts, hot chocolate, fairy bartenders and sleepy renditions of saturday's tales....
no drawings to be done.....

what are we becoming?

when I'm in betwen two major events in my life, I start to feel like everything in between... is like a thick coat of syrupy mollasses... slowing me down..

so i try to ignore that feeling and enjoy the little things..



jardin des plantes with jerome... (who took these pictures... that i sniped from his blog) http://crucifixionenrose.blogspot.com/


dressing like a 70's hooker....


hot chocolate...






Before i leave i plan on transforming the flat into a giant blanket fort, having a party, make a cake, tattooing more, and finding someone to rent out my room till i get back.
i wish montpellier had craigslist...

je me sens bizarre

its 10:30pm, my hair looks pretty, my hands are speckled with paint, I'm wearing someone else's tshirt (i always like whats not from MY wardrobe), i want to go out but I have no idea whats going on... too lazy to use my phone..

I miss the comfort of sisterly love.. so i paint new ones....




today was strange... it was sweet, calm, sunny.. deafeningly quiet.

problem chiiiild you aint too cool

yesterday:
wake up squished between two good things and can't figure out how to turn my alarm... coffee in bed, then on Divergence FM for a quick chat with the girls about Rock n Troc our (soon to be) monthly yardsale boozefest vintage artshowy day, we've got our third one today, hear us live on divergence! or see us too... FR 3 is shooting it. then home, food... and drawing and some more of that, and then its 11pm, and then mandie is here, and the mojomatic is packed, and then more of that in another bar, and then... what? its 6 in the morning??? how did that happen?
watch family guy and eat top ramen noodles that julia left here... julia...
I met some ridiculous guys from stockholm last night. they took themselves very seriously. I think they took us seriously too.




if i get time today, i'll start the background

lacy lucy....

painting lace...
its calming. and at the same time... the thought of having to start over is nervewracking...
like sky diving for the indoorsy.

busy little bee

worked for a good portion of the night, ended up drawing on my arms... owls and diamonds... one of which has rubbed off on MY FACE.

need to buy batteries for the flash on my camera (the 35mm) and some inks.

and post these oldies (but goodies)







I started three last night and all I've got to do is fill em in with black ink :D
2010 I like you so far.

tate o.

my camera works in the way that makes it entirely impractical... i can take 1 blurry shot every time i turn it on.
so... heres something in motion/ progress...







the reference... a picture of a picture...


and then I steamrolled right over it....








Its not finished.. theres a gigantic error thats bothering me and im wondering if i have the patience to fix it.
maybe tomorow.
till then...

trial and error

I want 2010 to be the year I don't do things because im scared at failing...
I dont mind if i fail miserably at hundreds of things (im completely exagerating and would probably go into a depression if that happened) as long as i actually tried.

I still have no camera, this makes updating my progress a little bit difficult.
but...




its okay.
instead I leave you with this.
