these texts are an archive of my life in the San Francisco Bay Area from march 2007 - march 2015. it stands as a record of close to a decade of my life, charting the struggles i faced as an artist, daughter, and lover. messy and chaotic at times, eloquent and poetic at others, these texts are an index i am proud of. it was here in this electric box that i learned how to be honest about my experiences and the person i needed to become. it was here that i first learned the truism that words make the world and how to trust such a beautiful, rife, hard fact.

thank you for meeting me here in such tall grass.

DIY, Etsy, and little black dresses...

after a lot of hemming and hawing, i finally decided to take the plunge - head long- in to the Etsy pool and set up shop. it's something i've wanted to do for a really long time and have been putting up plans to do it all summer long. now, with summer over, i felt like i'd fantasized about it long enough and to just get it going and see where it takes me. the name of the shop is little black fences , in honor of the Territories series i've been working on, and is primarily dedicated to my printmaking and crocheting alter ego. have a look and let me know what you think.

in other news...
the drawing rampage of the passed weekend is still in full swing! it feels wonderful to be on such a roll! making art everyday does wonders for my spirit. it centers and humbles the chaotic little core of my neurotic self and helps me focus on the joy in life. here's a sampling of work from yet another series: black dresses.
