INTERIOR: MAGAZINE DISPLAY

    I become troubled and confused when I think of ripping a page out of a magazine to display my favorite editorial loosely taped to a wall. To solve my problem I've resorted to applying the same technique to my magazine display as to my art. Industrial clips. solved.

Such a lovely white-out. Using this as my new studio/bedroom inspiration.  xx -A

EDITORIAL OF THE WEEK

(So much Chanel)

      I thought I was done falling for this look. Either its here to stay, or it's a minor relapse. Sporty street style? Sure.

TASTY

THE GAP by Ira Glass from frohlocke on Vimeo.
                                                    [I wold recommend watching the video first]

Ahah. A few months ago I posted the following text on my Tumblr (I believe I've shared this with you before.. Uhh.) -
  

"Some days all I want is to re-blog everything on my (tumblr) feed. But then I look around and see how little original content there is on here and I think again (not to say I’ve never done it, but it is rare).

     It’s easy to acquire good taste, all it takes is culture (I’m not downing this, I love it too much. But there is quite an uneven population between being inspired and inspiring.. They should go hand in hand), to create beauty is the real feat."

"Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art." - Ralph Waldo Emerson 

After watching this video, I realized what it was that carries me through each project with equal dedication even though.. Lets be honest... It will probably not turn out like I want it to in my head. TASTE. It's what begins something and then (eventually.. After beginning again and again) brings about a piece of art you are proud of. 

I'm still in the middle of this process, if you must know. 

So go do A LOT of work. 

2014

     
      (At first I thought this felt like a late happy new year) It's only the seventh, so pace yourselves guys. We're only a week deep. As some of you may have noticed (from my lack of posts on the topic or maybe my oddly pessimistic tweets from new years eve. Actually, also on tumblr.. wow.)  I'm not much of a new years resolution person. But strangely, new years eve is my favorite celebration.

     I love looking back over the year. I don't know that I outwardly have much to show for it, but the past six months of last year were probably the most impact full, and productive in every area. I can't wait to see what I will be taking on this new year. There is something enchanting about feeling as though you're staring into a blank canvas.

( Random interjection: our definition of time sometimes makes me grin)

More than anything I want this year to a be a year that is deeply felt. 

      Those of you who are back to school, work, or what ever it is that you might do... I hope you have had the proper amount of time to recover and hit the ground running. I like to think many of you got to read new (and old) books, drink your weight in tea, and eat all the fruit you can handle, while swaddled in cashmere. If you haven't done this, I suggest clearing your weekend. You could still be toxic with the holiday.
