On youtube someone left this comment...
I like that.
"I'd describe the feeling of listening to this song as being at peace while drowning under ice, a sort of contented despair as if you knew you were doomed long enough to stop caring and move on."
I like that.

Dan Bergeron
I'm loving these portraits from his Face of the City project...
His work is insightful, often socially conscious and impressively chronicled...check it out here.

Cover art.
I work part time at a book store. Did you know? It's called Book Soup and it's the most amazing independent book store in the world, smack dab in the middle of LA.
The cover of a book is a lot like the label on a bottle of wine...it can really make or break the deal in terms of peaking your interest of what's inside. Here are a few of my favorites from covers.fwis.com, a website dedicated to....
you guessed it...

Opinion reconsidered.
I've never considered myself a fan of plates as wall decor til I saw these photos on an interior design website I frequent. I was so inspired I thought I'd share...
A modern take on something very old fashioned. So pretty!

An apple a day...
Keeps the doctor away.
When I saw this neat poster/calendar/whatever I got really excited. I think the idea is great, especially for kids when they need a little extra incentive to eat healthy food. You peel the variety sticker from every apple you eat each day and attach it to a square. At the end of a year you have a nifty piece of personal art and it's a great Christmas gift idea at only $25 from feltandwire.com.
Let's eat more apples!

Milton Glaser
I'm digging his stream of consciousness as he draws. And doesn't he have a soothing voice?

iPhone art
Lawrence Weschler, the Director of the New York Institute for the Humanities at New York University, has a brilliant story in the Oct. 22 issue of the New York Review of Books. It seems Weschler's friend, famed artist David Hockney, is obsessed with making art -- via his Brushes application on his iPhone.
Weschler explains: "Over the past six months, Hockney has fashioned literally hundreds, probably over a thousand, such images, often sending out four or five a day to a group of about a dozen friends, and not really caring what happens to them after that. (He assumes the friends pass them along through the digital ether.) These are, mind you, not second-generation digital copies of images that exist in some other medium: their digital expression constitutes the sole (albeit multiple) original of the image."
