SHIT man.

So, theres this photographer that i stalk Julie Blackmon.

And i no longer can keep her to myself.

Her black and white work is delicious.

"The struggle between living in the moment versus escaping to another reality is intense since these two opposites strive to dominate. I believe there are moments that can be found throughout any given day that bring sanctuary.  It is in finding these moments amidst the stress of the everyday that my life as a mother parallels my work as an artist, and where the dynamics of family life throughout time seem remarkably unchanged.  As an artist and as a mother, I believe life’s most poignant moments come from the ability to fuse fantasy and reality:  to see the mythic amidst the chaos."


I feel like i deal with the same types of things when creating work. In the past my work has been focused on the moment of a situation, where the climax of an event is occurring and i capture the instant the subject gets caught in the current of the actions. I feel that over the summer my emotions have turned more to the direction of calm, yet poignant moments. The calm before/after the storm, if you will, creating a momental 'sanctuary' like Blackmon referred to. 

Friday Night

under this roof

body of work i am kind of working on. this is a digital image, that i shot a long side a bunch of 4x5 color transparencies. i'm getting them processed this week.

this is based on the phrase "not under this roof" that was spoken to me many times in a reoccurring dream, i have had this summer. lately i have been trying to escape the 'roof' and experimenting with ways i can do so.

Summer.

This summer i have to say that my thought process has changed. i don't think i go about thinking in the same ways that i used to, everything is purely emotional to me now. rather than a visual creation, i feel things and then have the need to create a representation of it.

... an incomplete thought, for now.
