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.


my artist website is here.

and the storm arrives!

oh, it is coming down in SHEETS! it's the tail end of a typhoon! ahhhhhhh! my little rottweiler here is even afraid to go outside! ha! and so no jog today either. we will have to find ways to keep ourselves entertained inside, i guess. good thing i'm stocked up on projects and paint and paper and all the things a person needs to while away a rainy, rainy day. these days are good for silence. no sounds in the house at all. just the rain beating down on the roof and a pile of books next to the bed. in addition to my beloved hazelnut coffee, i've also got a little stash of hot-chocolate that i've been waiting to break out once winter arrived. and here she is, at least for today. i'll pretend i'm some famous, reclusive, so-and-so and do everything from the confines of my bed. ha! like andy warhol said- everything is more glamorous when you do it in bed.
