The Winner

We sat like this for 45 minutes until I gave up.

Conspiracy

In the 50s and 60s the fastest way to weaken a labor union was to locate the smartest, most vocal organizer and promote him into management.
None of them could resist the pay increase.
Over dinner with K one night I wondered if this technique was by turning rappers into actors: Ice Tea, Ice Cube, DMX, Snoop, Tupac, Mos Def, Ludicris, RZA, Dr Dre, etc.
K: Well let's see, you find the strongest inciteful voices that have the attention of a certain group of people....yep.

New Breed

New Breed was a circa 1973 label. I found this in my warehouse today. Mod men's shirt, deadstock, factory folds still obvious, and check out that matching clip on tie. Pocket print matches the shirt. A rare glance back. Union made :)

Baby is ill

I spent 1.5 hours in my car yesterday while Bellie was inside the Vet's office getting an IV of fluids, injections of meds, scripts, blood work, and special food which she is ignoring. She is ill. Bloody diarrhea = colitis. Vomiting. Worse, she can't tell us how she is feeling.

Three crows

Three crows were rolling dice in the alley this morning.
They glanced up as I passed and eyed the trash bag. I hesitated before opening the dumpster, reviewing the contents of the bag wondering if any of it would interest them. One asked me to join them for a game. They wanted to bet on the bag.

The Sixth Decade

Above the valley in Beumount Antire. Pist's house. Wearing authentic Bausch and Lomb 50s cats.

Memphis Group

Memphis Group had a fabulous impact on fashion in the 80s. I love Post Modern. Sold to a women in Philly.

Architecture in hatting

omg. I can't wait to see what I do with this hat.

Upcycle

I love the challenge of found objects that I can upcyle into a sale.
This vintage bag had a filthy rope handle when I found it. I hung it upside down in bleach to restore it. Sold on Etsy.

Kick Ass

My steel toe Sears boots bought circa 1982. They are so comfortable.

Shine Bright

The white Iris glittering with its own iridescence in the garden I made for Pist.

My First Loves in Life

Bakelite which I was collecting as a teenager. And those wild, Czech glass pendants in gold plated filigree.

1/2015

Sitting in the sunbeam with her face raised to the light. Her love of sunlight makes me think she was kept in a box or garage. She was up to 41 pounds in this photo. She'd surrently at her correct weight of 58 pounds: The worlds smallest Golden due to being forced to breed at 6 months and never achieving her adult body size. This also happens to humans.

Bellie meets an Infant

And then she fell in love. I've never known a dog creature such as her. She looked up at me to share her awe and joy.
