This reminds me of my dreams. . . I've been dreaming a lot lately about doors. . . and going through them and finding some pretty wild stuff. . . perhaps the artist and I share similar experiences.

I am a little obsessed with reflections. I think this image justifies how beautiful they can be. . .

Personal Findings. . .















I found these at an antique mall in the middle of no where. I wonder about the couples who purchased these for their cakes. . . they're probably all divorced. . . or dead. I'm such an optimist.



I found these masks at a second hand store. These things always creeped me out as a kid.. . . even more so now.



I've been taking sculpture pretty serious lately. I welded this out of steel. . . the children are cutout from an old National Geographic. I really want to start combining photography and sculpture more. . .  because it's really fun and interesting!

Personal Findings. . .

We waited patiently for some Pizza. . . and in the meantime. . . we got really artsy.


Asher and Talia. . . up to no good.

My Brother. . . the fire sign.

These are neat. . .

Windows attract me. They are so revieling. . . and so mysterious.

This piece excites me. It reminds of how funny and scary art can be.

Personal findings. . .


My eyes were fucking up this week. . . so I had to go here. 
Maybe they hurt because I'm slowly turning into an Alien and
I need new special kinds of eyes O.O




Julian and his cousin. . . and they have the same unintentional pose. . . 
I sometimes just love when this happens. . . 





Lexi's window. A combination of trees and houses. TREE HOUSES! 
It felt just as gloomy as it looks. . . 

These are neat. . .

                       The shadows were strong. . . I took this image on my cell phone. . . I still really like it
There were a lot of lights. . . so, I took a picture of them all.

My work

This image is funny because they both have beards!

I like this image because it is mysterious and strange. This animal may be looking for the rest of its body and perhaps wondering why there are small, shiny, plastic spheres covering what's left.

George Segal (1924–2000), Walk, Don’t Walk, 1976. Plaster, cement, metal, painted wood, and electric light, 109 × 72 × 74 inches (276.9 × 182.9 × 188.9 cm)  Whitney Museum of American Art, New York

This image is interesting to me because it is something that we see one a daily basis. We as human beings are always waiting. . . waiting. . . waiting--like statues for moments at a time.
