Wednesday
fresh ink
my good friend katrina just picked up a pen the other day and drew this! it's an illustration of me and i can't get over how good she is for not having any experience. it's so detailed, she even got my big eyebrows in there, haha (she tells me she loves a big brow). i'm so excited to see what else she'll draw... good work, k!
lofty dreams
after house-sitting in a studio for a week, i've started to think how much i'd like to live in a loft someday { and isn't this one beautiful? } i imagine that the best thing about living in a space like this is that you can edit your material life down to only the most meaningful essentials. i try to do this now, but it's hard when it feels like you have all the space in the world.

Tuesday
on the lighter side
just a quick pic of the new hair. tips aren't quite as blonde as i was planning, but i think that's good for now... i'm happy to finally move away from the floppy and disheveled grad student bun... the one that's wispy in all the wrong places? i've been sporting that look a bit too much lately. : )
Monday
on the edge of experience
just got back from ottawa for the opening of wanda's show at the national gallery. it went incredibly well and i'm still completely awestruck ... you can read about it here or here if you'd like. she's now onto toronto for the release of this beautiful film. gorgeous!

watching people
i keep watching this video over and over.... i think i've seen it about 10 times already. if you haven't, it's a little documentary about the man behind the sartorialist ... our 21st century flaneur. i loved hearing his take on the process of looking and its function in our digital age, where everything is quick and hyper-connected.
i also keep thinking about his comment on fashioning his blog as if it were a "global park bench" ... and for me, this rings true. looking at his blog and others like it makes me feel giddy, like i've hopped on a plane and have arrived somewhere.... it's not as much about fashion as it is about character and conveying the sense of place. he does this so well and i'm happy to hear that he'll be doing this for the next 30 to 40 years.

Friday
big thaw
been busy busy busy writing today. finished one big paper this afternoon and now onto the first chapter of my thesis (due on monday!). i'm terrible at taking breaks when i need to but today i went outside for an hour-long walk. spring came, and for just the day... couldn't miss it.
